Disclosed is a composition for inducing the differentiation of neural stem cells into dopaminergic neurons. The composition includes the compound represented by Formula 1 (“AS703026”) as a MEK 1/2 inhibitor. Also disclosed is a method for inducing the differentiation of neural stem cells into dopaminergic neurons by using the composition. Dopaminergic neurons whose differentiation from neural stem cells is induced by the composition and method can be applied to cell replacement therapies and gene therapies for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, or can be widely used as materials for the examination of drug effects or numerous studies in the development of new drugs.
公开了一种用于诱导神经干细胞分化为多巴胺能神经元的组合物。该组合物包括作为 MEK 1/2 抑制剂的式 1 所代表的化合物("AS703026")。还公开了一种使用该组合物诱导神经干细胞分化为多巴胺能神经元的方法。由该组合物和方法诱导神经干细胞分化而成的多巴胺能神经元可应用于治疗神经退行性疾病(如帕金森病)的细胞替代疗法和基因疗法,也可广泛用作药物效应检查材料或新药开发的大量研究。
