General description
HOG is a clonal cell line derived from a surgically removed human oligodendroglioma (HOG) . HOG cells express oligodendrocyte markers including low levels of the 15-kDa form of myelin basic protein (MBP) and high levels of CNPase protein. HOG cells do not express GFAP, a astrocyte marker and were found to have minimal levels of glutamine synthetase activity . HOG cells express neurotransmitter receptors such as A2-adenosine, prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) and beta2-adrenergic receptores (beta-ARs) that activate the adenylate cylase signaling pathway . HOG cells also express muscarinic and histamine receptors that are linked to inositol phosphate signaling pathways .

A stable cell line derived from a human oligodendroglioma (HOG) was used to study the regulation of muscarinic- and histamine receptor-mediated phosphoinositide hydrolysis. Both carbachol and histamine increased inositol monophosphate (InsP) accumulation in a dose- and time-dependent manner in the

Oligodendrocytes, the myelin-forming cells of the central nervous system, are the target of pathogenic immune responses in multiple sclerosis. Primary cultures of human oligodendrocytes have been used to unravel the cellular and molecular mechanisms of immune-mediated injury of oligodendrocytes. However

Glia have been implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Variants of the microglia receptor triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) increase AD risk, and activation of disease-associated microglia (DAM) is dependent on TREM2 in mouse models of AD.
