Abstract
Provided herein, for example, are methods generally relating to the expansion and/or regeneration of central nervous system (CNS) cells, such as nerve cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, using an activator of cereblon (CRBN), such as an inhibitor of a CRBN substrate or downstream protein. Also provided herein, for example, are methods related to the expansion of neural stem cells, neural progenitor cells, or neural precursor cells and/or differentiation of these cells into CNS cells using a BRD7 antagonist, Ikaros antagonist, or CRBN activator. In certain embodiments, the methods further comprise differentiation of certain stem cells into the neural stem cells, neural progenitor cells, or neural precursor cells using a BRD7 antagonist, Ikaros antagonist, or CRBN activator. Also provided herein, for example, are methods of preventing or treating a CNS cell defective disease, disorder or condition, or a symptom thereof, using a BRD7 antagonist, Ikaros antagonist, or CRBN activator.
