    Abstract:
    Dietary administration of a copper chelator, cuprizone (CPZ), has long been reported to induce intense and reproducible demyelination of several brain structures such as the corpus callosum. Despite the widespread use of CPZ as an animal model for demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), the mechanism by which it induces demyelination and then allows robust remyelination is still unclear. An intensive mapping of the cell dynamics of oligodendrocyte (OL) lineage during the de- and remyelination course would be particularly important for a deeper understanding of this model. Here, using a panel of OL lineage cell markers as in situ hybridization (ISH) probes, including Pdgfra, Plp, Mbp, Mog, Enpp6, combined with immunofluorescence staining of CC1, SOX10, we provide a detailed dynamic profile of OL lineage cells during the entire course of the model from 1, 2, 3.5 days, 1, 2, 3, 4,5 weeks of CPZ treatment, as well as after 1, 2, 3, 4 weeks of recovery from CPZ treatment. The result showed an unexpected early death of mature OLs and response of OL progenitor cells (OPCs) in vivo upon CPZ challenge, and a prolonged upregulation of myelin-forming OLs compared to the intact control even 4 weeks after CPZ withdrawal. These data may serve as a basic reference system for future studies of the effects of any intervention on de- and remyelination using the CPZ model, and imply the need to optimize the timing windows for the introduction of pro-remyelination therapies in demyelinating diseases such as MS.
