Neonatal Viral Infection Decreases Neuronal Progenitors and Impairs Adult Neurogenesis in the Hippocampus

While adult neurogenesis has been demonstrated in the hippocampal dentate gyrus of several mammalian species, including humans, the impact of viral infections has not been well studied. To examine this question we used a model in which neonatal rats are infected with lymphocytic choriomeningitis vir...
