Scientists Learn How to Produce New Brain Cells in Adult Mice
In the June 1, 2014 online issue of Nature Neuroscience Chay Kuo, M.D. Ph.D. of Duke reports that stimulating certain neurons in the adult mouse brain signaled stem cells in the subventricular zone (SVZ) of their brains to produce new neurons. The neurons that Dr. Kuo stimulated are designed to produce the choline
