IMAGING CORRELATES OF NEUROGENESIS WITH MRI

摘要

This invention provides a method for treating a mammalian subject afflicted with a disorder associated with reduced neurogenesis in the subject"s hippocampal dentate gyrus which comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound which increases cerebral blood volume in the subject"s hippocampal dentate gyrus by a percentage greater than that by which it increases the cerebral blood volume in the subject"s hippocampal CAl region, thereby treating the subject.
