Astrocytes modulate macrophage phagocytosis of myelin in vitro

Smith, Marion E, Hoerner, Michelle T·2000·Journal of Neuroimmunology

Abstract

Previous work from this laboratory has shown that both macrophages and microglia phagocytize relatively little myelin in vitro under basal conditions. In an effort to better simulate the conditions within the central nervous system (CNS), we have co-cultured these cells with astrocytes, the most numerous of the neural cells in the CNS, and have compared myelin phagocytosis in the co-cultures with that in cells cultured alone. Both macrophages and microglia in company with astrocytes phagocytized about three times as much myelin as controls, as measured by the formation of cholesterol ester, while astrocytes alone showed little evidence of myelin phagocytosis. Astrocyte-conditioned medium increased phagocytic activity in macrophages by 2.3-fold, and by 3.5-fold in microglia. A number of adhesion molecules and extracellular matrices were tested for their effects on myelin phagocytosis. Matrigel was most effective in activating the macrophages, and in the presence of conditioned medium, stimulated these cells to phagocytize as much myelin as when co-cultured with astrocytes. On the other hand, Matrigel inhibited myelin phagocytosis in microglia. These results indicate that activation of macrophages by astrocytes may be due to an adhesion component, as well as to soluble factors secreted by the astrocytes. While microglia were also stimulated by conditioned medium, adhesion to astrocytes or Matrigel induced a downregulation in phagocytic activity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
