Modulation of neural stem cells and neural progenitor cells

摘要

The invention relates generally to methods of influencing central nervous system cells to produce progeny useful in the treatment of CNS disorders. More specifically, the invention includes methods of exposing a patient suffering from such a disorder to a reagent that modulates the proliferation, migration, differentiation and survival of central nervous system cells via S1P or LPA signaling. These methods are useful for reducing at least one symptom of the disorder.
