A method for protecting white matter, axons, and oligodendrocytes of a mammal, especially a human, against degeneration and death resulting from multiple sclerosis or periventricular leucomalacia by increasing the effective concentration of a GPE-related compound in the central nervous system of the mammal. This increase may be achieved by administration to the mammal of an effective amount of a GPE-related compound, a prodrug thereof, or an implant containing cells that express the GPE-related compound or prodrug. The use of a GPE-related compound, a prodrug thereof, or an implant containing cells that express the GPE-related compound or prodrug in the manufacture of a medicament for protecting white matter, axons, and oligodendrocytes of a mammal, especially a human, against degeneration and death resulting from multiple sclerosis or periventricular leucomalacia; and compositions containing a GPE-related compound, a prodrug thereof, or an implant containing cells that express the GPE-related compound or prodrug for protecting white matter, axons, and oligodendrocytes of a mammal, especially a human, against degeneration and death resulting from multiple sclerosis or periventricular leucomalacia.
一种保护哺乳动物(尤其是人类)的白质、轴突和少突胶质细胞免受多发性硬化症或室管膜周围白斑病引起的变性和死亡的方法,其方法是增加哺乳动物中枢神经系统中 GPE 相关化合物的有效浓度。可以通过向哺乳动物施用有效量的 GPE 相关化合物、其原药或含有表达 GPE 相关化合物或原药的细胞的植入物来实现这种浓度的增加。将 GPE 相关化合物、其原药或含有表达 GPE 相关化合物或原药的细胞的植入物用于制造保护哺乳动物(尤其是人类)的白质、轴突和少突胶质细胞免受多发性硬化症或室周白癫风引起的变性和死亡的药物;以及含有 GPE 相关化合物、其原药或含有表达 GPE 相关化合物或原药的细胞的植入物的组合物,用于保护哺乳动物(尤其是人类)的白质、轴突和少突胶质细胞,防止多发性硬化症或脑室周围白质疏松症导致的变性和死亡。
