3. 2. Studies on neurogenesis in the adult human brain

   University essay from Institutionen för livsvetenskaper

   Author : Annika Andersson; [2010]
   Keywords : Neurogenesis; subgranular zone; adult human DG; Ki67;

   Abstract : Many studies on neurogenesis in adult dentate gyrus (DG) have been performed on rodents and other mammalian species, but only a few on adult human DG.  This study is focusing on neurogenesis in adult human DG. To characterize the birth of cells in DG, the expression of the cell proliferation marker Ki67 was examined using immunohistochemistry. READ MORE
