The Dentate Gyrus of the Hippocampus: Roles of Transforming Growth Factor beta1 (TGFbeta1) and Adult Neurogenesis in the Expression of Spatial Memory

The dentate gyrus is a region that hosts most of the hippocampal cells in mammals. Nevertheless, its role in spatial memory remains poorly understood, especially in light of the recently-studied phenomenon of adult hippocampal neurogenesis and its possible role in aging and chronic brain disease. We...
