Since the ensheathment of the axons must occur at the appropriate time of neuronal development, reciprocal communication between neurons and oligodendrocytes is essential to coordinate myelin biogenesis (Boiko and Winckler, 2006
). Neurons control the development of oligodendrocytes by regulating the proliferation, differentiation and survival of oligodendrocytes (Barres and Raff, 1999
). The signals are important to match the number of oligodendrocytes to the axonal surface requiring myelination. Furthermore, the timing of myelination is crucial because the ensheathment of axons must not occur before neurons signal to oligodendrocytes. In turn, signals from oligodendrocytes to neurons are necessary to cluster multiprotein complexes in the axonal membrane into distinct subdomains at the nodes of Ranvier the gaps beween myelinated segments of neurons (Pedraza et al., 2001
; Scherer and Arroyo, 2002
; Poliak and Peles, 2003
; Salzer, 2003
). Moreover, the axonal cytoskeleton and the rate of vesicular transport along the axons are modified by oligodendrocytes (de Waegh et al., 1992
; Hsieh et al., 1994
; Edgar et al., 2004
). The reciprocal communication between neurons and oligodendrocytes is thus important for the development of the nervous system. Here, we discuss the cellular and molecular mechanisms of myelin biogenesis focusing on the role of neuron-oligodendrocyte communication in this process.

Many studies now point to the importance of extrinsic neuron-derived signalling molecules at multiple stages of oligodendrocyte development (Fig. 1B) (Barres and Raff, 1999
). These extrinsic signals serve two major purposes. They help to control the proper timing of OPC differentiation to ensure myelination at the appropriate time and place, and they control and match the number of oligodendrocytes to the axonal surface area requiring myelination. Several growth factors and trophic factors, such as PDGF-A, FGF-2, IGF-1, NT-3 and CNTF, have been shown to regulate oligodendrocyte development (Barres and Raff, 1994
; Miller, 2002
; Baron et al., 2005
). PDGF-A is produced by both astrocytes and neurons and regulates the proliferation and survival of OPCs (Noble et al., 1988
; Raff et al., 1988
; Richardson et al., 1988
). Overexpression of PDGF-A in transgenic mice results in a dramatic increase in the number of OPCs in the embryonic mouse spinal cord and ectopic production of oligodendrocytes (Calver et al., 1998
). However, the excess oligodendrocytes die at an immature stage of differentiation and the final result is a normal number of myelin-forming oligodendrocytes.
This is a nice example of how increased proliferation can be balanced by increased apoptosis. Even during normal development, oligodendrocytes are greatly overproduced and the cell number is adjusted to the number and length of the axons requiring myelination. Only oligodendrocytes that manage to ensheath the axon survive, whereas those that fail degenerate (Barres et al., 1992
; Trapp et al., 1997
). One mechanism that may determine the final number of oligodendrocytes is competition for limiting amounts of target-derived molecules, such as FGF-2, IGF-1, NT-3 and CNTF. Because most of these factors are also produced by astrocytes, the role of neurons was not initially apparent. An important clue to the requirement for axonal factors came from experiments on transected optic nerves. Removal of axons reduces the number of oligodendrocytes significantly (Barres et al., 1993
). By contrast, transgenic optic nerves that display an increased number of axons have more oligodendrocytes (Burne et al., 1996
).
Which are the neuron-derived molecules that control oligodendrocyte survival? One such a factor is neuregulin (NRG). The NRGs constitute a family of proteins containing an epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like motif that activates the membrane-associated ErbB2, ErbB3 and ErbB4 receptor tyrosine kinases. In the developing CNS, NRGs activate ErbB on oligodendrocytes. In the absence of ErbB2, oligodendrocytes fail to undergo terminal differentiation and to ensheath axons (Park et al., 2001
). In culture, NRG-1 supports the survival of maturing oligodendrocytes (Fernandez et al., 2000
; Flores et al., 2000
; Carteron et al., 2006
) and the addition of NRG decreases the amount of cell death that occurs during normal development or optic nerve transection experiments (Fernandez et al., 2000
). However, NRGs not only promote the survival and maturation of oligodendrocytes but also act as powerful mitogens and strongly enhance OPC proliferation (Canoll et al., 1996
). Surprisingly, NRGs can also prevent or even reverse oligodendrocyte maturation in OPC cultures (Canoll et al., 1996
; Canoll et al., 1999
). Furthermore, recent data from ErbB4-knockout mice indicate that ErbB4 inhibits oligodendrocyte lineage maturation and is not required for oligodendrocyte differentiation (Sussman et al., 2005
).
How can the same growth factors have such opposite effects? Multiple factors may be responsible for the variable response to NRG at distinct stages of oligodendrocyte development. These include different levels of the ligand, the repertoire of receptors expressed and the presence of co-factors. Recently, an integrin-mediated switch has been implicated in the NRG signalling pathway (Colognato et al., 2002
; Colognato et al., 2004
). Without neuronal contact, NRG activates a PI(3)K-dependent proliferation pathway, whereas adhesion of axons to
6ß1 integrin on the surface of oligodendrocytes leads to NRG-dependent survival through MAPK signalling (Colognato et al., 2002
; Colognato et al., 2004
). In this model, the integrin-mediated signalling defines the action of NRG. The interaction of integrin with the axonal surface depends on contact with laminin located there. This is consistent with a study of laminin-2-deficient mice that demonstrated a crucial role for laminin-2 in CNS myelination (Chun et al., 2003
).
Another example of an axonally derived signalling pathway that influences oligodendrocyte development is the Notch signalling pathway. OPCs express the Notch 1 receptor and interaction with Jagged 1 located at the axonal surface results in the activation of the Notch pathway in OPCs, which inhibits their differentiation into oligodendrocytes (Wang et al., 1998
). Because the expression of Jagged 1 is developmentally regulated in neurons, decreasing with a time course that parallels myelination, it is likely that neurons help to regulate the timing of myelination by preventing oligodendrocyte differentiation. This view is supported by in vivo experiments using a conditional knockout approach to selectively eliminate Notch signalling from oligodendrocytes. This results in premature oligodendrocyte differentiation in the CNS (Genoud et al., 2002
). In addition, the axonal cell adhesion molecule contactin was shown to act as an alternative Notch ligand, promoting rather than inhibiting oligodendrocyte differentiation (Hu et al., 2003
) and thereby adding another level of regulation to the Notch signalling pathway in oligodendrocytes.

Oligodendrocytes do not wrap their plasma membrane randomly around neuronal processes but carefully select axons that have a diameter of >0.2 µm; they also exclude dendrites. A recent study shows that NRG1 type III on the axonal surface is required for the myelination by Schwann cells in the PNS (Taveggia et al., 2005
). In fact, the levels of NRG1 type III define not only whether or not an axon will be myelinated but also the thickness of the sheath: transgenic mice with reduced NRG-1 expression display hypomyelination, whereas overexpression of NRG-1 induces increased myelin thickness (Michailov et al., 2004
). Myelin-forming Schwann cells thus appear to use NRG-1 signals to know whether and to what extent axons require myelination. The signalling pathways involved in the CNS are not known. Whether oligodendrocytes have the ability to read NRG-1 levels and thereby signals from CNS axons in a similar way to that used by Schwann cells is still an open issue.
After oligodendrocytes have established proper contact with the axonal membrane, they start to extend their membrane by spirally wrapping it around the axon. Because each oligodendrocyte is able to produce up to 40 myelinated segments on multiple axons, they have to synthesize a tremendous amount of membrane in a short time (Pfeiffer et al., 1993
). Intuitively, one would assume that the production of these myelin components is strictly under neuronal control because they are required at the time oligodendrocytes begin wrapping their membrane around axons. However, this is only partially true. Although neurons seem to regulate myelin gene expression to some extent (Macklin et al., 1986
; Goto et al., 1990
; Scherer et al., 1992
), the production of myelin components is initiated and also continues at a high rate in primary cultures of oligodendrocytes in the absence of neurons (Mirsky et al., 1980
; Dubois-Dalcq et al., 1986
). Because the uncoordinated production of myelin membrane by oligodendrocytes in the absence of axons may have deleterious consequences (e.g. formation of intracellular myelin), it is likely that control mechanisms exist in vivo. Thus an intrinsic program within oligodendrocytes lays out the timing of their development (Temple and Raff, 1986
), which can be influenced by external factors.
One signal that seems to be required to trigger myelination is the electrical activity of neurons (Demerens et al., 1996
). Note however, that a recent study in the zebrafish demonstrated that neither neuronal activity nor synaptic function is required for myelination in the larval nervous system (Woods et al., 2006
). There are numerous studies that address the mechanism of how electrical activity in axons after target innervation may influence myelination. There is evidence that it leads to the secretion of promyelinating factors such as adenosine from neurons (Stevens et al., 2002
). In the PNS, by contrast, impulses in premyelinated axons trigger the release of adenosine triphosphate, which inhibits proliferation and differentiation of Schwann cells (Stevens and Fields, 2000
). Recent work reveals a role for astrocytes in initiation of myelination in response to electrical impulses: they appear to release leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), which then stimulates the oligodendrocytes (Ishibashi et al., 2006
).
Electrical activity of neurons not only controls the secretion of promyelinating factors but also leads to a change in the expression pattern of axonal proteins (Coman et al., 2005
). The removal of some of these proteins, such as the polysialated adhesion molecule NCAM, is essential and allows the myelination process to proceed (Charles et al., 2000
). The molecular mechanisms by which these factors influence myelin membrane generation are not clear. One pathway recently shown to coordinate myelination is the regulation of RhoA activity by LINGO-1 in oligodendrocytes (Mi et al., 2005
). Activation of RhoA by LINGO-1 negatively regulates myelination (Liang et al., 2004
; Mi et al., 2005
). It will now be important to find out how these different signaling cascades act on the cellular machinery that generates myelin membrane in oligodendrocytes.
| Myelin assembly and trafficking |
|---|
|
|
|---|
Individual myelin components are synthesized in oligodendrocytes at several subcellular localizations and transported by different mechanisms to the growing myelin membrane. For example, targeting of MBP to myelin depends on transport of the respective MBP mRNAs. The MBP mRNA is assembled into granules in the perikaryon of oligodendrocytes, transported along processes and localized to the myelin membrane (Ainger et al., 1993
). The transport of the RNA to the plasma membrane depends on a 21-nucleotide sequence, the RNA transport signal (RTS), in the 3'UTR of the MBP mRNA (Ainger et al., 1997
). Whether the transport and/or final localization of the mRNA or protein are regulated by extrinsic signals is not known. However, the finding that MBP is initially synthesized in the cell body and is found within processes and the myelin sheath later during development suggests that its transport may be under developmental control (Shiota et al., 1989
). The mechanistic function of MBP in the formation of myelin is not understood. The binding of the positively charged MBP to the negatively charged inner leaflet of the plasma membrane suggests that it can function as a lipid coupler by bringing the layers of myelin close together. Recent data indicate that neurons increase the lipid packing of the myelin-forming bilayer in oligodendrocytes and that MBP is involved in this process of plasma membrane rearrangement (Fitzner et al. 2006
).

The PLP-delivery pathway might be under the control of neuronal signals (Fig. 2) (Trajkovic et al., 2006
). In the absence of neurons, PLP/DM20 is internalized and stored in late endosomes/lysosomes (LE/L), entering a cholesterol-dependent endocytosis pathway. After receiving an unknown soluble signal from neurons, oligodendrocytes reduce the rate of endocytosis and trigger transport from LE/L to the plasma membrane. This regulation of PLP trafficking might represent a mechanism to store superfluous membrane produced before the onset of myelination and release it on demand in a regulated fashion. Because MBP does not localize to LE/L, it may also be an important mechanism for differentially compartmentalizing myelin components to prevent premature and inappropriate assembly of myelin.
It is interesting to compare the regulation of PLP trafficking in oligodendrocytes by neuronal signals with the changes in membrane trafficking during the development of polarized tissue (Mostov et al., 2003
). For example, during tubulogenesis, cells depolarize and develop intracellular compartments containing components that are normally found at the surface. Polarization, by contrast, often involves the redirection of membrane from intracellular reservoirs to the plasma membrane. These are only a few examples of how membrane trafficking can undergo profound changes during development. The regulation of membrane trafficking in oligodendrocytes during development makes these cells an interesting model system to study the influence of cell-to-cell signaling on membrane trafficking.
Little is yet known about the trafficking machinery in oligodendrocytes. The upregulation of specific Rab proteins (Rab-3, Rab-5, Rab-8 and Rab-40) and SNARE proteins (VAMP-2 and syntaxin-4) during oligodendrocyte development gives some clue as to the players that might be involved (Rodriguez-Gabin et al., 2004
). A recent genetic screen in zebrafish showed that N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF), a protein involved in membrane fusion, is required for the expression of MBP and the proper formation of the myelin membrane (Woods et al., 2006
). This finding points to an interesting link between intracellular transport and myelin biogenesis. NSF may have a previously unidentified role in the targeting of essential signaling molecules. In addition, the exocyst, a multimeric protein complex involved in the recruitment of transport vesicles during the formation of polarized cells, has recently been implicated in vesicle transport in oligodendrocytes (Anitei et al., 2006
). The challenge will now be to integrate the signaling and trafficking pathways to attain a comprehensive view of how myelination is regulated. The cellular trafficking and signaling machinery are interconnected more then previously thought (Dudu et al., 2004
; Polo and Di Fiore, 2006
). This connection is likely to be particularly pronounced in oligodendrocytes, which must produce and sort membrane upon neuronal request.

Specific targeting and sorting mechanisms may also contribute to the segregation of nodal components. For example, the trapping of individual components at the nodal multiprotein complex may prevent their elimination by endocytosis and thereby reinforce their accumulation at the node (Fache et al., 2004
). The specific targeting of proteins by vesicular carriers to the node is another potential mechanism that remains to be investigated. Moreover, the attachment of the lateral edges of the glial cells to the axonal membrane creates a diffusion barrier that might help to concentrate the nodal protein complex by restricting its lateral diffusion (Pedraza et al., 2001
). The interaction of the glial ligand with the axonal adhesion molecule thus appears to initiate domain formation by generating a seed for the growth of a multiprotein complex, which is expanded by recruitment of further components, tethered to both the axonal cytoskeleton and the glial membrane and has limited capacity for diffusion. In the CNS, there seems to be at least one exception to this model. Initiation of complex formation does not depend on direct contact between oligodendrocytes and axons, but rather on an unknown soluble factor (Kaplan et al., 1997
; Kaplan et al., 2001
).

/ßII spectrin (Denisenko-Nehrbass et al., 2003
The paranodes seem to be particularly vulnerable to disruptions of the myelin membrane for example, in multiple sclerosis (Wolswijk and Balesar, 2003
; Coman et al., 2006
). In addition, a surprisingly high number of mouse myelin mutants display specific abnormalities in the paranodes and not in compact myelin. These include mice lacking the myelin glycolipids, galactosylceramide and sulfatide (Coetzee et al., 1996
; Dupree et al., 1999
; Honke et al., 2002
), the myelin and lymphocyte protein (MAL) (Schaeren-Wiemers et al., 2004
) or 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase (CNPase) (Rasband et al., 2005
). Interestingly, all these molecules play a role in the transport of vesicular membrane carriers by regulating sorting (Cheong et al., 1999
; Puertollano et al., 1999
; Degroote et al., 2004
) or cytoskeleton dynamics (Lee et al., 2005
). This suggests that they might be required for appropriate trafficking of glial molecules to the paranode (Schafer et al., 2004
).
On the axonal side, the localization of contactin to the paranodes not only depends on the interaction with glial neurofascin but also on the association with Caspr (Faivre-Sarrailh et al., 2000
; Bhat et al., 2001
; Gollan et al., 2002
; Gollan et al., 2003
). Caspr associates with contactin in the ER and this interaction is required for the transport to the cell surface (Faivre-Sarrailh et al., 2000
). In addition, the interaction modulates the intracellular processing of sugar moieties and this affects its ability to interact with neurofascin (Gollan et al., 2003
).
