SC1 is an extracellular matrix molecule prominent in the mammalian brain. In the cerebellum, SC1 localizes to Bergmann glial cells and perisynaptic glial processes that envelop synapses in the molecular layer. In the present study, confocal microscopy revealed a punctate distribution of SC1 along Bergmann glial fibers that colocalized with the intermediate filament GFAP when fibers were viewed in cross-section. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that the punctate SC1 pattern corresponded to the localization of SC1 in multivesicular bodies situated within Bergmann glial fibers. The pattern of SC1 localization was not disrupted following hyperthermia or pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus. The present study suggests that SC1 protein may reach its destination in perisynaptic glial processes and glial endfeet by transport along Bergmann glial fibers in multivesicular bodies and that this process is preserved following stress.
