摘要
The fusogenic properties of purified myelin components in a system employing chicken erythrocytes were studied. Sulfatides, myelin basic protein and the apoprotein of Folch-Lees proteolipid were capable of individually inducing membrane fusion in the presence of Ca2+. Cerebrosides or a mixture of sulfatides and myelin basic protein (molar ratio 19:1) did not show such effect. The fusogenic ability of sulfatide was correlated to its behavior in mixed monolayers with phospholipids at the air-water interface. Mixed films of sulfatides with phosphatidylcholine or sphingomyelin but not with phosphatidylethanolamine showed reductions of molecular packing and surface potential similar to those found for other fusogenic compounds. The effects of myelin components described could be of importance in the membrane instability and vesicular disruption of myelin occurring in demyelinative disorders.
