INDUCTION OF NEUROGENESIS AND STEM CELL THERAPY IN COMBINATION WITH COPOLYMER 1

摘要

A method for inducing and enhancing neurogenesis and/or oligodendrogenesis from endogenous as well as from exogenously administered stem cells comprises administering to an individual in need thereof an agent selected from the group consisting of Copolymer 1, a Copolymer 1-related polypeptide, a Copolymer 1-related peptide, and activated T cells which have been activated by Copolymer 1, a Copolymer 1-related polypeptide, or a Copolymer 1-related peptide. The method is particularly useful for stem cell therapy in combination with the agent.
