CA 2352553

Use of a substance that upon administration will lead to increased concentrations of growth hormone, such as growth hormone, a functionally equivalent analogue thereof or a substance that will increase the release of endogenous growth hormone, for the production of a medicinal product for treatment of abnormal conditions affecting neural stem cells, progenitor cells and/or cells derived from neural stem cells or progenitor cells, especially conditions affecting the oligodendroglia, astroglia, and/or neuronal cells. In vitro and in vivo methods for inducing lineage determination, propagating and/or inducing or maintaining the genesis of neurons, oligodendrocytes, astroglial cells from progenitor cells, stem cells and/or cells derived from said cells by administrating to the cells a substance that increases the concentration of growth hormone. Also a method of reducing the genesis of oligodendrocytes, neurons, astroglial cells from progenitor cells or stem cells, wherein a pharmaceutically effective amount of a substance that will lead to a decreased concentration of growth hormone or a functionally equivalent analogue thereof is administered to said patient.

L'invention concerne l'utilisation d'une substance qui, dès son administration, provoque l'augmentation des concentrations de l'hormone de croissance, telle que l'hormone de croissance, un analogue fonctionnellement équivalent de cette hormone ou une substance capable d'accélérer la libération de l'hormone de croissance endogène, en vue de la production d'un produit médicinal destiné au traitement des états anormaux affectant les cellules neuronales souches, les cellules progénitrices et/ou les cellules dérivées de ces cellules neuronales souches ou de ces cellules progénitrices, notamment les pathologies affectant les oligodendroglies, les astroglies, et/ou les cellules neuronales. L'invention concerne également des méthodes in vitro et in vivo permettant d'induire une détermination de lignée, de propager et/ou d'induire ou d'entretenir la genèse des neurones, oligodendrocytes, et astroglies à partir des cellules progénitrices, des cellules souches et/ou des cellules dérivées de ces cellules par administration dans ces cellules d'une substance faisant augmenter la concentration de l'hormone de croissance. L'invention concerne, enfin, une méthode permettant de réduire la genèse des oligodendrocytes, neurones, et astroglies à partir des cellules progénitrices ou des cellules souches, laquelle méthode consiste à administrer au patient une dose pharmaceutiquement efficace d'une substance capable d'induire une réduction de la concentration de l'hormone de croissance ou d'un analogue fonctionnellement équivalent de cette hormone.
