Structural plasticity of the hippocampus in response to estrogens in female rodents
It is well established that estrogens affect neuroplasticity in a number of brain regions. In
particular, estrogens modulate and mediate spine and synapse formation as well as …

Adult neurogenesis and brain regeneration in zebrafish
Adult neurogenesis is a widespread trait of vertebrates; however, the degree of this ability
and the underlying activity of the adult neural stem cells differ vastly among species. In …
