Abstract

Oligodendrocyte precursor cells, which persist in the adult central nervous system, are the main source of central nervous system remyelinating cells. In multiple sclerosis, some demyelinated plaques exhibit an oligodendroglial depopulation, raising the hypothesis of impaired oligodendrocyte precursor cell recruitment. Developmental studies identified semaphorins 3A and 3F as repulsive and attractive guidance cues for oligodendrocyte precursor cells, respectively. We previously reported their increased expression in experimental demyelination and in multiple sclerosis. Here, we show that adult oligodendrocyte precursor cells, like their embryonic counterparts, express class 3 semaphorin receptors, neuropilins and plexins and that neuropilin expression increases after demyelination. Using gain and loss of function experiments in an adult murine demyelination model, we demonstrate that semaphorin 3A impairs oligodendrocyte precursor cell recruitment to the demyelinated area. In contrast, semaphorin 3F overexpression accelerates not only oligodendrocyte precursor cell recruitment, but also remyelination rate. These data open new avenues to understand remyelination failure and promote repair in multiple sclerosis.

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.
