Methods to study adult hippocampal neurogenesis in humans and across the phylogeny
Hippocampus, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 271-306, April 2023., 2023 Abstract The hippocampus hosts the continuous addition of new neurons throughout life—a phenomenon named adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN). Here we revisit the occurrence of AHN in more than 110 mammalian species, including humans, and discuss the further validation of these data by single‐cell RNAseq and other alternative techniques. In this regard,
