Platelets Give a Running Start to Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis

Exercise boosts neural stem and progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation in the dentate gyrus region of the hippocampus. In this issue of Stem Cell Reports, Leiter et al. (2019) identify acute exercise-induced platelet activation and platelet factor-4 as novel systemic mediators of adult hi...
