α6β4 Integrin and Dystroglycan Cooperate to Stabilize the Myelin Sheath
Schwann cells integrate signals deriving from the axon and the basal lamina to myelinate peripheral nerves. Integrin α6β4 is a laminin receptor synthesized by Schwann cells and displayed apposed to the basal lamina. α6β4 integrin expression in Schwann cells is induced by axons at the onset of myelin...

Schwann cells integrate signals deriving from the axon and the basal lamina to myelinate peripheral nerves. Integrin α6β4 is a laminin receptor synthesized by Schwann cells and displayed apposed to the basal lamina. α6β4 integrin expression in Schwann cells is induced by axons at the onset of myelination, and rises in adulthood. The β4 chain has a uniquely long cytoplasmic domain that interacts with intermediate filaments such as dystonin, important in peripheral myelination. Furthermore, α6β4 integrin binds peripheral myelin protein 22, whose alteration causes the most common demyelinating hereditary neuropathy. All these data suggest a role for α6β4 integrin in peripheral nerve myelination. Here we show that ablating α6β4 integrin specifically in Schwann cells of transgenic mice does not affect peripheral nerve development, myelin formation, maturation, or regeneration. However, consistent with maximal expression in adult nerves, α6β4 integrin-null myelin is more prone to abnormal folding with aging. When the laminin receptor dystroglycan is also ablated, major folding abnormalities occur, associated with acute demyelination in some peripheral nervous system districts.
