Mutations of the myelin proteolipid protein gene (Plp) are associated with excessive programmed cell death (PCD) of oligodendrocytes. We show for the first time that PLP is a molecule ubiquitously expressed in non-neural tissues during normal development, and that the level of native PLP modulates the level of PCD. We analyze three non-neural tissues, and show that native PLP is expressed in trophoblasts, spermatogonia, and cells of interdigital webbing. The non-neural cells that express high levels of native PLP also undergo PCD. The level of PLP expression modulates the level of PCD because mice that overexpress native PLP have increased PCD and mice deficient in PLP have decreased PCD. We show that overexpression of native PLP causes a dramatic acidification of extracellular fluid that, in turn, causes increased PCD. These studies show that the level of native PLP modulates the amount of PCD during normal development via a pH-dependent mechanism.
