Axon regeneration in the adult CNS is limited by the presence of
inhibitory proteins. An interaction of Nogo on the oligodendrocyte surface with Nogo-66 Receptor (NgR) on axons has been suggested to play
an important role in limiting axonal growth. Here, we compare the
localization of these two proteins immunohistochemically as a test of
this hypothesis. Throughout much of the adult CNS, Nogo-A is detected
on oligodendrocyte processes surrounding myelinated axons, including
areas of axon-oligodendrocyte contact. The NgR protein is detected
selectively in neurons and is present throughout axons, indicating that
Nogo-A and its receptor are juxtaposed along the course of myelinated
fibers. NgR protein expression is restricted to postnatal neurons and
their axons. In contrast, Nogo-A is observed in myelinating
oligodendrocytes, embryonic muscle, and neurons, suggesting that Nogo-A
has additional physiologic roles unrelated to NgR binding. After spinal
cord injury, Nogo-A is upregulated to a moderate degree, whereas NgR
levels are maintained at constant levels. Taken together, these data
confirm the apposition of Nogo ligand and NgR receptor in situations of
limited axonal regeneration and support the hypothesis that this system
regulates CNS axonal plasticity and recovery from injury.
