Abstract

We show that GGF/neuregulin is a mitogen for prooligodendrocytes (O4+/O1- cells), oligodendrocytes (O4+/O1+ cells), and type-2 astrocytes. Heregulin beta 1, another neuregulin isoform, is also mitogenic. The proliferative effect of glial growth factor (GGF) does not require, but is greatly potentiated by, serum factors. GGF also promotes the survival of pro-oligodendrocytes under serum-free conditions. High levels of GGF reversibly inhibit the differentiation and lineage commitment of oligodendrocyte progenitors and, in differentiated cultures, result in loss of O1 and myelin basic protein expression. All three erbB receptors are expressed by progenitors and are activated by GGF; the relative abundance of these receptors changes during differentiation. Finally, cortical neurons release a soluble mitogen for pro-oligodendrocytes that is specifically blocked by antibodies to GGF. These results implicate the neuregulins in the neuronal regulation of oligodendrocyte progenitor proliferation, survival, and differentiation.

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.
