Cell-type–specific loss of slc12a2b/NKCC1b in either neurons or myelinating Schwann cells recapitulated these pathologies. Given that NKCC1 is critical for ion homeostasis, we asked whether the disruption to myelinated axons in slc12a2b/NKCC1b mutants is affected by neuronal activity. Strikingly, we found that blocking neuronal activity completely prevented and could even rescue the pathology in slc12a2b/NKCC1b mutants. Together, our data indicate that NKCC1b is required to maintain neuronal activity–related solute homeostasis at the axon–myelin interface, and the integrity of myelinated axons. date: 2020-07-06 date_type: published official_url: https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201909022 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1783207 doi: 10.1083/jcb.201909022 pii: 151733 lyricists_name: Poole, Richard lyricists_id: RPOOL83 actors_name: Flynn, Bernadette actors_id: BFFLY94 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Journal of Cell Biology volume: 219 number: 7 article_number: e201909022 event_location: United States citation: Marshall-Phelps, KLH; Kegel, L; Baraban, M; Ruhwedel, T; Almeida, RG; Rubio-Brotons, M; Klingseisen, A; ...
