✦ Synopsis

We have studied the characteristics of pH(i) regulation at different stages of rat oligodendrocyte differentiation in primary culture. pH(i) was measured at 37 degrees C using the pH-sensitive fluorescent probe BCECF. In immature oligodendrocyte progenitor (OLP), three distinct ionic mechanisms were involved in pH(i) regulation: (i) a sodium-independent Cl(-)/HCO(-)(3) exchanger, (ii) a Na(+)/H(+) exchanger and (iii) a voltage-dependent Na(+)-HCO(-)(3) cotransporter. The two latter mechanisms were also detected in more differentiated pro-oligodendrocytes and in mature oligodendrocytes whereas the Cl(-)/HCO(-)(3) exchanger was not active in these two later stages of differentiation. The presence of this Cl(-)/HCO(-)(3) exchanger (that acts as a chronic acidifying mechanism) only in immature OLP maintains in these cells a steady-state pH(i) value significantly lower than values measured in more differentiated cells. The possible involvement of this pH(i) change in triggering cell differentiation is discussed.

Oligodendrocytes (OLs) synthesize and transport vast amounts of proteins and lipids from the cell body to the morphologically and biochemically distinct domains of the myelin membrane. From our prediction that regulators of vesicular transport should be up-regulated at the time of myelin production,

In control experiments, DMO was found to equilibrate rapidly in response to a pH gradient. Under nor

Electrical coupling between cultured mouse oligodendrocytes was transiently blocked when pHi was decreased below about 6.5 using the NH,+ prepulse method. This uncoupling could, however, only be achieved if the dominant pH, regulating mechanism in these cells, the Na+/HC03-cotransporter, was blocked
