    摘要: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a medicine for increasing neural stem cell numbers.
    SOLUTION: The method and the medicine are provided for increasing the neural stem cell numbers or neural neogenesis by using prolactin which is a polypeptide hormone. The method can be practiced in vivo to obtain more neural stem cells in situ, which can in turn produce more neurons or glial cells to compensate for lost or dysfunctional neural cells. The method can also be practiced in vitro to produce a large number of neural stem cells in culture. The cultured stem cells can be used, for example, for transplantation treatment of patients or animals suffering from neurodegenerative diseases or conditions. In addition, administration of a medicine containing prolactin can increase the number of neural stem cells. The neurodegenerative diseases especially include Alzheimer disease, disseminated sclerosis, Huntington disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Parkinson disease.
