Mutations in LAMA2, the gene for the extracellular matrix protein laminin-α2, cause a severe muscular dystrophy termed MDC1A. MDC1A patients have accompanying CNS neural dysplasias and white matter abnormalities for which the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Here we report that in laminin-deficient mice oligodendrocyte development was delayed such that oligodendrocyte progenitors accumulated inappropriately in adult brains. Conversely, laminin substrates were found to promote the transition of oligodendrocyte progenitors to newly-formed oligodendrocytes. Laminin-enhanced differentiation was Src Family Kinase –dependent and resulted in the activation of the Src Family Kinase Fyn. In laminin-deficient brains, however, increased Fyn repression was accompanied by elevated levels of the Src Family Kinase negative regulatory proteins, C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) and its transmembrane adaptor, Csk-binding protein (Cbp). These findings indicate that laminin deficiencies delay oligodendrocyte maturation by causing dysregulation of signaling pathways critical for oligodendrocyte development, and suggest that a normal role for CNS laminin is to promote the development of oligodendrocyte progenitors into myelin-forming oligodendrocytes via modulation of Fyn regulatory molecules.
