The myelin sheath was not stained in these
preparations, thus the existence of a continual
cytoplasmic link between oligodendrocytes and
myelin was not demonstrated until the advent of

Fast excitatory neurotransmission in the central nervous system
occurs at specialized synaptic junctions between neurons, where a
high concentration of glutamate directly activates receptor
channels. Low-af®nity AMPA (a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl iso-
xazole propionic acid) and kainate glutamate receptors are also
expressed by some glial cells1
, including oligodendrocyte precur-
sor cells (OPCs). However, the conditions that result in activation
of glutamate receptors on these non-neuronal cells are not known.
Here we report that stimulation of excitatory axons in the
hippocampus elicits inward currents in OPCs that are mediated
by AMPA receptors. The quantal nature of these responses and
their rapid kinetics indicate that they are produced by the
exocytosis of vesicles ®lled with glutamate directly opposite
these receptors. Some of these AMPA receptors are permeable to
calcium ions, providing a link between axonal activity and inter-
nal calcium levels in OPCs. Electron microscopic analysis revealed
that vesicle-®lled axon terminals make synaptic junctions with the

sen and Mirsky, 2005;
., 2008). More than 60
years after the seminal discovery demonstrating that myelin
is made by axon-associated glial cells, and not by the axon itself
(Ben Geren, 1954), the molecular mechanisms by which the
myelin sheath is wrapped around the axon are still largely
unknown. This is due in part to the physical limitations of visual-
izing membrane dynamics at the nanometer scale and the time
span involved (i.e., days in vivo). Even if it represents ‘‘textbook
knowledge’’ that oligodendrocytes wrap myelin around an axon
by steering a leading process that stays in close contact with the
axon, we have almost no experimental data to substantiate this
claim. Does the leading edge resemble a glial growth cone-like
extension related to the one that drives axonal outgrowth in
developing neurons? It has also become apparent that myelin
is a dynamically active structure (Young et al., 2013) that can pro-
vide metabolic support to associated axons (Fu¨ nfschilling et al.,
2012; Lee et al., 2012). However, it remains completely unclear
how molecules reach the innermost myelin layer, i.e., passing
through a multilamellar stack of membranes.
A number of different models have been proposed to explain
how a myelin sheath might form in development. According to

dendrocyte forms a process that broadens and extends along
the entire axonal segment (the future internode) before it makes
one turn and moves underneath the growing sheet. However, at
least in the CNS, several morphological features of myelin are
incompatible with this model. In particular, it is clear from elec-
tron microscopic analysis that the number of myelin layers can
vary along the length of a single myelin sheath during its forma-
tion (Knobler et al., 1976). Moreover, the molecular forces neces-
sary to continuously displace myelin by newly made layers of
membrane from underneath might be too high. Some of these
shortcomings were reconciled in the ‘‘liquid croissant’’ (Sobottka

myelin as a multi-
n outfoldings in
of myelin biogen-
are ensheathed with
and complex trans-
n and Mirsky, 2005;
2008). More than 60
years after the seminal discovery demonstrating that myelin
is made by axon-associated glial cells, and not by the axon itself
(Ben Geren, 1954), the molecular mechanisms by which the
myelin sheath is wrapped around the axon are still largely
unknown. This is due in part to the physical limitations of visual-
izing membrane dynamics at the nanometer scale and the time
span involved (i.e., days in vivo). Even if it represents ‘‘textbook
knowledge’’ that oligodendrocytes wrap myelin around an axon
by steering a leading process that stays in close contact with the
axon, we have almost no experimental data to substantiate this
claim. Does the leading edge resemble a glial growth cone-like
extension related to the one that drives axonal outgrowth in
developing neurons? It has also become apparent that myelin
is a dynamically active structure (Young et al., 2013) that can pro-
vide metabolic support to associated axons (Fu¨ nfschilling et al.,
2012; Lee et al., 2012). However, it remains completely unclear
how molecules reach the innermost myelin layer, i.e., passing
through a multilamellar stack of membranes.
A number of different models have been proposed to explain
how a myelin sheath might form in development. According to
the ‘‘carpet crawler’’ model (Bunge et al., 1961, 1989), the oligo-
dendrocyte forms a process that broadens and extends along
the entire axonal segment (the future internode) before it makes
one turn and moves underneath the growing sheet. However, at
least in the CNS, several morphological features of myelin are
incompatible with this model. In particular, it is clear from elec-
tron microscopic analysis that the number of myelin layers can
vary along the length of a single myelin sheath during its forma-

Abstract | The evolution of complex nervous systems in vertebrates has been accompanied by,
and probably dependent on, the acquisition of the myelin sheath. Although there has been
substantial progress in our understanding of the factors that determine glial cell fate, much less
is known about the cellular mechanisms that determine how the myelin sheath is extended and

Functional integration of the vertebrate nervous
system’s byzantine cytoarchitecture requires rapid
nerve impulse conduction. During vertebrate evolu-
tion this has been achieved through the development
of myelin-forming glial cells — oligodendrocytes in the
CNS, and Schwann cells in the PNS. These cells wrap
around axons so that the molecular machinery respon-
sible for propagating action potentials is concentrated
at regular, discontinuous sites along the axon. These are
known as nodes of Ranvier. The presence of myelin as
aninternodalinsulatorensuresthatmembranedepolar-
ization can only occur at the nodes. The result is rapid,
saltatory (from the Latin saltare, to jump, or to dance)
nerve conduction.
Themyelinsheathisoneofthebeststudiedmamma-
lian membranes, not least because of its vital function,
and also owing to its abundance and the ease of isola-
tion of enriched myelin fractions. Consequently, there
is a vast literature on the biochemical and biophysical
properties of this membrane in health and disease,
and considerable detail has been amassed about the
biosynthesis of its constituent lipids and proteins (for
a review, see REF. 1). Furthermore, and reflecting our
growing understanding of how nervous systems develop
in general, the embryonic origins and cell lineages of
oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells and their pre-
cursors have been more clearly defined over the past
few years (for reviews, see REFS. 2,3). These discoveries
have revealed the involvement of a steadily increasing
number of receptor signalling pathways and transcrip-
tion factors in the differentiation of glial cells. Therefore,
there has been, and continues to be, steady progress in
our understanding of where myelin-forming glia come
from and which molecules regulate their specification.
In spite of this burgeoning knowledge, until recently
surprisingly little was known about the molecular basis
and dynamics of the cell–cell interactions that deter-
mine how the myelin sheath is extended and stabilized
around axons in the first place. Progress has also been
slow in understanding the mechanisms that allow
nerves to continue growing in the postnatal animal.
These are key questions for understanding nervous
system function, as they relate directly to the role of
myelin as an insulator of nerve fibres and to the way
that myelin-forming glia participate in the assembly
of nodes of Ranvier. These issues are of more than aca-
demic interest, as progress in revealing the mechanisms
of repair and the essential role of myelin-forming glia
is known about the cellular mechanisms that determine how the myelin sheath is extended and
stabilized around axons. This review highlights four crucial stages of myelination, namely, the
selection of axons and initiation of cell–cell interactions between them and glial cells, the
establishment of stable intercellular contact and assembly of the nodes of Ranvier, regulation
of myelin thickness and, finally, longitudinal extension of myelin segments in response to the
lengthening of axons during postnatal growth.

More than 60 years after the seminal discovery demonstrating that myelin is made by axon-associated glial cells, and not by the axon itself (Ben Geren, 1954), the molecular mechanisms by which the myelin sheath is wrapped around the axon are still largely unknown. This is due in part to the physical limitations of visual- izing membrane dynamics at the nanometer scale and the time span involved (i.e., days in vivo). Even if it represents ‘‘textbook knowledge’’ that oligodendrocytes wrap myelin around an axon by steering a leading process that stays in close contact with the axon, we have almost no experimental data to substantiate this claim. Does the leading edge resemble a glial growth cone-like extension related to the one that drives axonal outgrowth in developing neurons? It has also become apparent that myelin is a dynamically active structure (Young et al., 2013) that can pro- vide metabolic support to associated axons (Fu¨ nfschilling et al., 2012; Lee et al., 2012). However, it remains completely unclear how molecules reach the innermost myelin layer, i.e., passing through a multilamellar stack of membranes. A number of different models have been proposed to explain how a myelin sheath might form in development. According to the ‘‘carpet crawler’’ model (Bunge et al., 1961, 1989), the oligo- dendrocyte forms a process that broadens and extends along the entire axonal segment (the future internode) before it makes one turn and moves underneath the growing sheet. However, at least in the CNS, several morphological features of myelin are incompatible with this model. In particular, it is clear from elec- tron microscopic analysis that the number of myelin layers can vary along the length of a single myelin sheath during its forma- tion (Knobler et al., 1976). Moreover, the molecular forces neces- sary to continuously displace myelin by newly made layers of membrane from underneath might be too high. Some of these shortcomings were reconciled in the ‘‘liquid croissant’’ (Sobottka Cell 156, 277–290, January 16, 2014 ª2014 Elsevier Inc. 277 Myelin Membrane Wr by PI(3,4,5)P3-Depend Growth at the Inner T Nicolas Snaidero,1,2 Wiebke Mo¨ bius,3,12 Tim Czopka,4,5,6, Sandra Goebbels,3 Julia Edgar,3 Doron Merkler,9,10,11 Dav 1Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Cellular Neuroscie 2Department of Neurology, University of Go¨ ttingen, Robert-Koch-S 3Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experiment 4Centre for Neuroregeneration 5MS Society Centre for Translational Research 6Euan Mac Donald Centre for Motor Neurone Disease Research University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH16 4SB, UK 7MRC Centre for Regenerative Medicine, University of Edinburgh, 8FEI Company, Achtseweg Noord 5, 5651 GG Eindhoven, The Net 9Department of Pathology and Immunology, University of Geneva, 10Division of Clinical Pathology, Geneva University Hospital, 1211 G 11Department of Neuropathology, University of Go¨ ttingen, 37075 G 12Center for Nanoscale Microscopy and Molecular Physiology of th *Correspondence: msimons@gwdg.de http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2013.11.044 Myelin Membrane Wrapping of CNS Axons by PI(3,4,5)P3-Dependent Polarized Growth at the Inner Tongue Nicolas Snaidero,1,2 Wiebke Mo¨ bius,3,12 Tim Czopka,4,5,6,7 Liesbeth H.P.

Does the leading edge resemble a glial growth cone-like extension related to the one that drives axonal outgrowth in developing neurons? It has also become apparent that myelin is a dynamically active structure (Young et al., 2013) that can pro- vide metabolic support to associated axons (Fu¨ nfschilling et al., 2012; Lee et al., 2012). However, it remains completely unclear how molecules reach the innermost myelin layer, i.e., passing through a multilamellar stack of membranes. A number of different models have been proposed to explain how a myelin sheath might form in development. According to the ‘‘carpet crawler’’ model (Bunge et al., 1961, 1989), the oligo- dendrocyte forms a process that broadens and extends along the entire axonal segment (the future internode) before it makes one turn and moves underneath the growing sheet. However, at least in the CNS, several morphological features of myelin are incompatible with this model. In particular, it is clear from elec- tron microscopic analysis that the number of myelin layers can vary along the length of a single myelin sheath during its forma- tion (Knobler et al., 1976). Moreover, the molecular forces neces- sary to continuously displace myelin by newly made layers of membrane from underneath might be too high. Some of these shortcomings were reconciled in the ‘‘liquid croissant’’ (Sobottka Cell 156, 277–290, January 16, 2014 ª2014 Elsevier Inc. 277 Myelin Membrane Wra by PI(3,4,5)P3-Depende Growth at the Inner To Nicolas Snaidero,1,2 Wiebke Mo¨ bius,3,12 Tim Czopka,4,5,6,7 L Sandra Goebbels,3 Julia Edgar,3 Doron Merkler,9,10,11 David 1Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Cellular Neuroscienc 2Department of Neurology, University of Go¨ ttingen, Robert-Koch-Stra 3Department of Neurogenetics, Max Planck Institute of Experimental 4Centre for Neuroregeneration 5MS Society Centre for Translational Research 6Euan Mac Donald Centre for Motor Neurone Disease Research University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH16 4SB, UK 7MRC Centre for Regenerative Medicine, University of Edinburgh, Ed 8FEI Company, Achtseweg Noord 5, 5651 GG Eindhoven, The Nethe 9Department of Pathology and Immunology, University of Geneva, 12 10Division of Clinical Pathology, Geneva University Hospital, 1211 Ge 11Department of Neuropathology, University of Go¨ ttingen, 37075 Go¨ t 12Center for Nanoscale Microscopy and Molecular Physiology of the *Correspondence: msimons@gwdg.de http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2013.11.044 Myelin Membrane Wrapping of CNS Axons by PI(3,4,5)P3-Dependent Polarized Growth at the Inner Tongue Nicolas Snaidero,1,2 Wiebke Mo¨ bius,3,12 Tim Czopka,4,5,6,7 Liesbeth H.P.

Brophy Abstract | The evolution of complex nervous systems in vertebrates has been accompanied by, and probably dependent on, the acquisition of the myelin sheath. Although there has been substantial progress in our understanding of the factors that determine glial cell fate, much less is known about the cellular mechanisms that determine how the myelin sheath is extended and R E V I E W S Centre for Neuroscience Research, University of Edinburgh, Summerhall, Edinburgh EH9 1QH, UK. Correspondence to P.J.B. e-mail: peter.brophy@ed.ac.uk doi:10.1038/nrn1743 Functional integration of the vertebrate nervous system’s byzantine cytoarchitecture requires rapid nerve impulse conduction. During vertebrate evolu- tion this has been achieved through the development of myelin-forming glial cells — oligodendrocytes in the CNS, and Schwann cells in the PNS. These cells wrap around axons so that the molecular machinery respon- sible for propagating action potentials is concentrated at regular, discontinuous sites along the axon. These are known as nodes of Ranvier. The presence of myelin as aninternodalinsulatorensuresthatmembranedepolar- ization can only occur at the nodes. The result is rapid, saltatory (from the Latin saltare, to jump, or to dance) nerve conduction. Themyelinsheathisoneofthebeststudiedmamma- lian membranes, not least because of its vital function, and also owing to its abundance and the ease of isola- tion of enriched myelin fractions. Consequently, there is a vast literature on the biochemical and biophysical properties of this membrane in health and disease, and considerable detail has been amassed about the biosynthesis of its constituent lipids and proteins (for a review, see REF. 1). Furthermore, and reflecting our growing understanding of how nervous systems develop in general, the embryonic origins and cell lineages of oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells and their pre- cursors have been more clearly defined over the past few years (for reviews, see REFS. 2,3). These discoveries have revealed the involvement of a steadily increasing number of receptor signalling pathways and transcrip- tion factors in the differentiation of glial cells. Therefore, there has been, and continues to be, steady progress in our understanding of where myelin-forming glia come from and which molecules regulate their specification. In spite of this burgeoning knowledge, until recently surprisingly little was known about the molecular basis and dynamics of the cell–cell interactions that deter- mine how the myelin sheath is extended and stabilized around axons in the first place. Progress has also been slow in understanding the mechanisms that allow nerves to continue growing in the postnatal animal. These are key questions for understanding nervous system function, as they relate directly to the role of myelin as an insulator of nerve fibres and to the way that myelin-forming glia participate in the assembly of nodes of Ranvier. These issues are of more than aca- demic interest, as progress in revealing the mechanisms of repair and the essential role of myelin-forming glia is known about the cellular mechanisms that determine how the myelin sheath is extended and stabilized around axons. This review highlights four crucial stages of myelination, namely, the selection of axons and initiation of cell–cell interactions between them and glial cells, the establishment of stable intercellular contact and assembly of the nodes of Ranvier, regulation of myelin thickness and, finally, longitudinal extension of myelin segments in response to the lengthening of axons during postnatal growth.
