Neuronal plasticity is a central theme of modern neurobiology, from cellular and molecular
mechanisms of synapse formation in Drosophila to behavioural recovery from strokes in …

Adult hippocampal neurogenesis originates from precursor cells in the adult dentate gyrus
and results in new granule cell neurons. We propose a model of the development that takes …

Neurogenesis occurs in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus throughout the life of a rodent
1–4 , but the function of these new neurons and the mechanisms that regulate their birth are …

Renewed discussion about whether or not adult neurogenesis exists in the human
hippocampus, and the nature and strength of the supporting evidence, has been reignited by two …

The dentate gyrus of the adult hippocampal formation generates neurons throughout life. To
date, it remains unclear why. What are the new neurons used for? How can an existing …

Brain plasticity as a neurobiological reflection of individuality is difficult to capture in animal
models. Inspired by behavioral-genetic investigations of human monozygotic twins reared …

Exposure to an enriched environment increases neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of adult
rodents. Environmental enrichment, however, typically consists of many components, such …

Several concepts, which in the aggregate get might be used to account for “resilience”
against age‐ and disease‐related changes, have been the subject of much research. These …

Neurons are continually born from endogenous stem cells and added to the dentate gyrus
throughout life, but adult hippocampal neurogenesis declines precipitously with age. Short‐…

Exposure to an enriched environment and physical activity, such as voluntary running, increases
neurogenesis of granule cells in the dentate gyrus of adult mice. These stimuli are also …
