The New Concept of Neurogenesis
Abstract:Although neurogenesis in adult mammals was reported 40 years ago, only very recently the concept that the adult nervous system can generate new neurons set a real milestone in our understanding of the brain. Here we summarized the research work on neurogenesis in adu1t with focus on (1) molecular mechanism of regulation of developmental neurogenesis; (2) adult neurogenesis in dentate gyrus of hippocampal formation; (3) comparison of adult and developmental neurogenesis; (4) the strengths and limitations of the methodologies used to identify new neurons.
