Krabbe disease (KD), also known as globoid cell leukodystrophy, is an inherited demyelinating disease caused by the deficiency of lysosomal galactosylceramidase (GALC) activity. Most of the patients are characterized by early‐onset cerebral demyelination with apoptotic oligodendrocyte (OL) death and die before 2 years of age. However, the mechanisms of molecular pathogenesis in the developing OLs before death and the exact causes of white matter degeneration remain largely unknown. We have recently reported that OLs of twitcher mouse, an authentic mouse model of KD, exhibit developmental defects and endogenous accumulation of psychosine (galactosylsphingosine), a cytotoxic lyso‐derivative of galactosylceramide. Here, we show that attenuated expression of microRNA (miR)‐219, a critical regulator of OL differentiation and myelination, mediates cellular pathogenesis of KD OLs. Expression and functional activity of miR‐219 were repressed in developing twitcher mouse OLs. By using OL precursor cells (OPCs) isolated from the twitcher mouse brain, we show that exogenously supplemented miR‐219 effectively rescued their cell‐autonomous developmental defects and apoptotic death. miR‐219 also reduced endogenous accumulation of psychosine in twitcher OLs. Collectively, these results highlight the role of the reduced miR‐219 expression in KD pathogenesis and suggest that miR‐219 has therapeutic potential for treating KD OL pathologies. Krabbe disease (KD), or globoid cell leukodystrophy, is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease with progressive demyelination and apoptotic OL death. In this study, we found that the expression and functional activity of miR‐219 are repressed in oligodendrocytes (OLs) of twitcher mice, an authentic mouse model of KD, and that cellular pathological changes in twitcher OLs are rescued by exogenous supplementation with miR‐219.
