Abstract

Identifying a source of cells with the capacity to generate oligodendrocytes in the adult CNS would help in the development of strategies to promote remyelination. In the present study, we examined the ability of the precursor cells of the adult mouse subventricular zone (SVZ) to differentiate into remyelinating oligodendrocytes. After lysolecithin-induced demyelination of the corpus callosum, progenitors of the rostral SVZ (SVZa) and the rostral migratory pathway (RMS), expressing the embryonic polysialylated form of the neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM), increased progressively with a maximal expansion occurring after 2 weeks. This observation correlated with an increase in the proliferation activity of the neural progenitors located in the SVZa and RMS. Moreover, polysialic acid (PSA)-NCAM-immunoreactive cells arizing from the SVZa were detected in the lesioned corpus callosum and within the lesion. Tracing of the constitutively cycling cells of the adult SVZ and RMS with 3H-thymidine labelling showed their migration toward the lesion and their differentiation into oligodendrocytes and astrocytes but not neurons. These data indicate that, in addition to the resident population of quiescent oligodendrocyte progenitors of the adult CNS, neural precursors from the adult SVZ constitute a source of oligodendrocytes for myelin repair.

  • Oligodendrocytes and astrocytes are also generated in the adult V-SVZ.

    “Although oligodendrocytes and astrocytes are also generated in the adult V-SVZ (Menn et al., 2006; Nait-Oumesmar et al., 1999; Ortega et al., 2013; Sohn et al., 2015; Xing et al., 2014), their lineage trajectories are less clear.”

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.
