Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates to compositions and methods for obtaining a corticospinal upper motor neuron from a neural stem cell comprising the use of a CB 1 cannabinoid receptor agonist, or the use of an inhibitor of an endocannabinoid-degrading enzyme, or the modification of a neural stem cell to decrease the expression of an endocannabinoid-degrading enzyme under basal levels or to increase the expression of the CB 1 cannabinoid receptor above basal levels. The invention also relates to the corticospinal upper motor neurons obtained and uses thereof. |
