Neurogenesis and aging: FGF‐2 and HB‐EGF restore neurogenesis in hippocampus and subventricular zone of aged mice
28 May 2003
Abstract excerpt
Neurogenesis, which may contribute to the ability of the adult brain to function normally and adapt to disease, nevertheless declines with advancing age. Adult neurogenesis can be enhanced by administration of growth factors, but whether the aged brain remains responsive to these factors is unknown. We compared the effects of intracerebroventricular fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 and heparin-binding epidermal...
