Genetic control of adult neurogenesis: interplay of differentiation, proliferation and survival modulates new neurons function and memory circuits.

Within the hippocampal circuitry, the basic function of the dentate gyrus is to transform the memory input coming from the enthorinal cortex into sparse and categorized outputs to CA3, in this way separating related memory information. New neurons generated in the dentate gyrus during adulthood appe...
