Convincing evidence has repeatedly shown that new neurons are produced in the
mammalian brain into adulthood. Adult neurogenesis has been best described in the …

The fertility and survival of an individual rely on the ability of the periphery to promptly,
effectively, and reproducibly communicate with brain neural networks that control …

Adult hippocampal neurogenesis is increased by antidepressants, and is required for some
of their behavioral effects. However, it remains unclear whether expanding the population of …

Adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) represents a remarkable form of neuroplasticity that
has increasingly been linked to the stress response in recent years. However, the …

In this perspective article, we reflect on the recent debate about the existence of human
neurogenesis and discuss direct, and also indirect, support for the ongoing formation, and …

Over the past two decades, evidence has accumulated that neurogenesis can occur in both
the juvenile and adult mammalian hypothalamus. Levels of hypothalamic neurogenesis can …

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) generally consists of endothelial tight junction barriers that
prevent the free entry of blood-derived substances, thereby maintaining the extracellular …

Neuronal migration is a critical process in the development of the nervous system. Defects in
the migration of the neurons are associated with diseases like lissencephaly, subcortical …

In mammals, new neurons can be generated from neural stem cells in specific regions of the
adult brain. Neural stem cells are characterized by their abilities to differentiate into all …

In mammals, neurogenesis occurs during both embryonic and postnatal development. In
eutherians, most brain structures develop embryonically; conversely, in marsupials, a …
