The junctional complex of oligodendrocytes was studied by means of different electron microscopical techniques. This complex is composed of the following junctional membrane formations: 1) tight junctional domains in the oligodendrocytic membrane near the some of the cells, 2) fasciae occludentes or focal tight junctions on the outer oligodendrocytic loop of myelin and on the outermost myelin membrane, 3) gap junctions of considerable size variations, either on membranes near the soma or on peripheral oligodendrocytic processes, and 4) non-paranodal transverse bands. The different types of oligodendrocytic junctions are discussed in terms of their functional implications.
