The object of the present invention is to provide methods for inhibiting proliferation of neural stem cells, an agent for inhibiting proliferation of neural stem cells, and methods for using the same. According to the method of the present invention, a galectin-1 inhibitor such as anti-galectin-1 antibody and/or an integrin beta1 inhibitor such as anti-integrin beta1 antibody is administered to a human or a vertebrate other than human for inhibiting proliferation of neural stem cells.
