Myelinating co-cultures of Schwann cells and DRG-neurons are a powerful experimental system to probe the molecular mechanisms of axon-Schwann cell interaction. The isolation of a pure population of myelination-competent Schwann cells is a prerequisite for this experimental system. We describe here a protocol for a FACS-based isolation of Schwann cells utilizing a specific affinity-reagent (Necl1-Fc), and the use of these isolated cells in myelinating co-cultures. An advantage of the myelinating co-culture system is that Schwann cells and the neurons can be genetically manipulated before they are co-cultured. We further show that our method allows the isolation of virally transduced Schwann cells in a single purification step. This protocol for the FACS-based isolation of myelination-competent Schwann cells by Necl1-Fc and the use of these cells in myelinating co-cultures should significantly facilitate future studies aimed at the delineation of the molecular mechanisms axon-Schwann cell interactions and myelination.
