    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method of treating a neuropsychiatric disorder. This method involves selecting a subject having the neuropsychiatric disorder and administering to the selected subject a preparation of glial progenitor cells at a dosage effective to treat the neuropsychiatric disorder in the subject. Another aspect of the disclosure is directed to a method of treating a neuropsychiatric disorder that includes selecting a subject having the neuropsychiatric disorder and administering, to the selected subject, a potassium (K+) channel activator at a dosage effective to restore normal brain interstitial glial K+ levels in the selected subject and treat the neuropsychiatric disorder is also disclosed.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods of treating a human subject having a condition mediated by a deficiency in myelin and methods of increasing oligodendrocyte production from human glial progenitor cells. These methods involve selecting a human subject having a condition mediated by a deficiency in myelin or providing a population of human glial progenitor cells and administering to the subject or the population of human glial progenitor cells one or modulators of a cell signaling pathway selected from the group consisting of Notch signaling, cAMP signaling, CIP2A signaling, RXRA signaling, TCF7L2 signaling, and combinations thereof under conditions effective to treat the condition or increase oligodendrocyte production.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a preparation of CD140a/PDGFRα positive cells that comprises oligodendrocyte progenitor cells co-expressing OLIG2 and CD140a/PDGFRα. The preparation of cells is derived from pluripotent cells that were derived from skin cells, fibroblasts, umbilical cord blood, peripheral blood, bone marrow, or other somatic cells. The cell preparation has an in vivo myelination efficiency that is equal to or greater than the in vivo myelination efficiency of a preparation of A2B5+/PSA-NCAM-sorted fetal human tissue derived oligodendrocyte progenitor cells. Methods of making, isolating and using the disclosed cell preparation are also described.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to preparation of one or more cells, wherein cells of the preparation are modified to conditionally express (i) increased levels of one or more immune checkpoint proteins as compared to corresponding wild-type cells, (ii) reduced levels of one or more HLA-I proteins as compared to corresponding wild-type cells, or a combination of (i) and (ii). The present disclosure is further directed to methods and constructs for producing the cell preparations as well as methods of administering the cell preparation to a subject in need thereof.
