The large myelin-associated glycoprotein isoform (L-MAG) protein and small myelin-associated glycoprotein isoform (S-MAG) protein were demonstrated after sciatic nerve crush injury in mice by an immunoblotting technique using specific antibodies to the L-MAG protein and the S-MAG protein, respectively. Immunoblots indicated a rapid decrease in expression of both isoform proteins in the crushed sciatic nerves to <10% of the control side. By 13 d after injury, L-MAG protein expression had quickly recovered to 100% of the control level. Following the increase in L-MAG protein expression, S-MAG protein expression recovered to 100% by 20 d after injury. It has been reported that the developmental maximum expression of L-MAG protein precedes that of S-MAG protein in both central and peripheral nervous system (CNS and PNS). Our previous work demonstrated that L-MAG mRNA was characteristically induced at the time of most active myelination, including remyelination in the CNS. We here have shown the expression of L-MAG protein precedes that of S-MAG protein during active remyelination in the PNS. This suggests that it plays an important role in the early stage of myelin formation.
