Abstract:Brain plasticity - A universal tool with many variations: The study of brain plasticity has been gaining interest since almost a century and has now reached a huge amount of information (>80,000 results in PubMed). Overall, different types of plasticity, including stem cell-driven genesis of new neurons (adult neurogenesis), cells in arrested maturation (dormant neurons), neuro-glial and synaptic plasticity, can coexist and contribute to grant plastic changes in the brain, from a cellular to system level (Benedetti and Couillard-Despres, 2022; Bonfanti et al., 2023). Most of the current knowledge is based on laboratory rodents and largely deals with cellular and molecular mechanisms aimed at exploiting a potential for brain repair.
