Neurogenic Processes Are Induced by Very Short Periods of Voluntary Wheel-Running in Male Mice

Even in the adult mammalian brain progenitor cells proliferate and give rise to young neurons which integrate into the neuronal network. The dentate gyrus possesses such a neurogenic niche reactive to external stimuli like physical activity. In most studies mice or rats have been exposed to wheel ru...
