Regulation of hippocampal progenitor cell survival, proliferation and dendritic development by BDNF

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Environmental enrichment (EE) is known to enhance BDNF levels and neurogenesis in the adult hippocampus. To examine the role of BDNF in modulating EE-mediated adult hippocampal neurogenesis, we conditionally ablated <it>BDNF &l...
