Abstract

Myelin is essential for rapid nerve signaling and is increasingly found to play important roles in learning and in diverse diseases of the CNS. Morphological parameters of myelin such as sheath length are thought to precisely tune conduction velocity, but the mechanisms controlling sheath morphology are poorly understood. Local calcium signaling has been observed in nascent myelin sheaths and can be modulated by neuronal activity. However, the role of calcium signaling in sheath formation remains incompletely understood. Here, we use genetic tools to attenuate oligodendrocyte calcium signaling during myelination in the developing mouse CNS. Surprisingly, genetic calcium attenuation does not grossly affect the number of myelinated axons or myelin thickness. Instead, calcium attenuation causes myelination defects resulting in shorter, dysmorphic sheaths. Mechanistically, calcium attenuation reduces actin filaments in oligodendrocytes, and an intact actin cytoskeleton is necessary and sufficient to achieve accurate myelin morphology. Together, our work reveals a cellular mechanism required for accurate CNS myelin formation and may provide mechanistic insight into how oligodendrocytes respond to neuronal activity to sculpt and refine myelin sheaths.

  • ARP2/3 complex-mediated actin polymerization is important for the initial phase of oligodendrocyte extension and axonal ensheathment, but rapid myelin wrapping is initiated by F-actin disassembly.

    “ARP2/3 complex-mediated actin polymerization is important for the initial phase of oligodendrocyte extension and axonal ensheathment, but rapid myelin wrapping is initiated by F-actin disassembly4,78.”

    From The WAVE complex in developmental and adulthood brain disorders (2025) · cites this paper as [78]

    The Results section (page unavailable) identifies Arp2/3 as an actin-nucleating complex necessary for early myelination. The Discussion (page unavailable) says actin assembly is required for oligodendrocytes to extend processes and ensheath axons, while subsequent wrapping requires actin disassembly. It does not establish that disassembly initiates wrapping or that the wrapping is rapid. (LLM, conf=0.82)

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.
