Abstract:
The present invention provides methods of inducing differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells to a mature myelinating cell fate with a neurotransmitter receptor modulating agent. The present invention also provides methods of stimulating increased myelination in a subject in need thereof by administering said neurotransmitter receptor modulating agent. Methods of treating a subject having a demyelinating disease using a neurotransmitter receptor modulating agent are also provided.
