What is Oligodendroglial Lineage Cells Express Neuroligand Receptors about?

This study was designed to determine whether cells of the oligodendroglial lineage express neuroligand receptors linked to Ca2+ mobilization. Intracellular Ca'+ levels were monitored with a video-based imaging system and cells were characterized with immunocytochemical markers. 0-2A progenitor cells (A2B5+/GFAE-) and mature oligodendroglia (GC +/MBP+ ) responded to norepinephrine, glutamate, ATP, and histamine with increased intracellular Ca2+ levels. As 0-2A progenitor cells differentiated into mature oligodendroglia, there was an increase in the percentage of cells that responded to ATP and histamine with an increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels. Both 0-2A progenitor cells and mature oligodendroglia were pharmacologically heterogeneous with respect to their ability to respond to neuroligands with an increase in intracellular Ca". Treatment with bradykinin, carbachol, and substance P also increased intracellular Ca'+ levels in 0-2A progenitor cells and mature oligodendroglia. Whereas the percentage of cells that responded to bradykinin and substance P increased with differentiation of 0-2A progenitor cells into mature oligodendroglia, the trend was reversed with respect to the per
