| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sulfatide species comprise the major glycosphingolipid components of myelin. Although various sulfatides contain different fatty acids, it is unclear how these sulfatides affect myelination. The O4 antibody reaction with sulfatide has been widely used as a useful marker for oligodendrocytes/myelin. However, sulfatide synthesis during the pro-oligodendroblast stage has not been examined. Here, we identified a sulfatides from the pro-oligodendroblast to myelination stage by imaging mass spectrometry. The results demonstrated short-chain sulfatides with 16 carbon fatty acids (C16) and C18 existed in the area, where pro-oligodendroblasts initially appear. C22 sulfatide became predominant later in oligodendrocyte development and the longer C24 sulfatide was predominant in the adult brain. These findings indicated that O4 recognized sulfatides with short chain fatty acids in pro-oligodendroblasts and individual sulfatide species may have unique roles in oligodendrogenesis and myelination.
