摘要
We have investigated the expression of integrins by rat oligodendroglia grown in primary culture and the functional role of these proteins in myelinogenesis. Immunochemical analysis, using antibodies to a number of alpha and beta integrin subunits, revealed that oligodendrocytes express only one detectable integrin receptor complex (alpha(OL)beta(OL)). This complex is immunoprecipitated by a polyclonal anti-human beta(1) integrin subunit antibody. In contrast, astrocytes, the other major glial cell type in brain, express multiple integrins including alpha(1) beta(1), alpha(3) beta(1), and alpha(5) beta(1) complexes that are immunologically and electrophoretically indistinguishable from integrins expressed by rat fibroblasts. The beta subunit of the oligodendrocyte integrin (beta(OL)) and rat fibroblast beta(1) have different electrophoretic mobilities in SDS-PAGE. However, the two beta subunits appear to be highly related based on immunological cross-reactivity and one-dimensional peptide mapping. After removal of N-linked carbohydrate chains, beta(OL) and beta(1) comigrated in SDS-PAGE and peptide maps of the two deglycosylated subunits were identical, suggesting differential glycosylation of beta(1) and beta(OL) accounts entirely for their size differences. The oligodendrocyte alpha subunit, alpha(OL), was not immunoprecipitated by antibodies against well. characterized alpha chains which are known to associate with beta(1) (alpha(3), alpha(4), and alpha(5)). However, an antibody to alpha(8), a more recently identified integrin subunit, did precipitate two integrin subunits with electrophoretic mobilities in SDS-PAGE identical to alpha(OL) and beta(OL) Functional studies indicated that disruption of oligodendrocyte adhesion to a glial-derived matrix by an RGD-containing synthetic peptide resulted in a substantial decrease in the level of mRNAs for several myelin components including myelin basic protein (MBP), proteolipid protein (PLP), and cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (CNP). These results suggest that integrin-mediated adhesion of oligodendrocytes may trigger signal(s) that induce the expression of myelin genes and thus influence oligodendrocyte differentiation.
