Effects of steroid hormones on neurogenesis in the hippocampus of the adult female rodent during the estrous cycle, pregnancy, lactation and aging
Adult neurogenesis exists in most mammalian species, including humans, in two main
areas: the subventricular zone (new cells migrate to the olfactory bulbs) and the dentate …
