In healthy rodent brains, newborn neurons are constantly generated in the stem cell niche, known as the subventricular zone (SVZ). These cells might help to repair a brain that has been damaged by ...

The Drosophila germline stem cell (GSC) niche represents a finely balanced microenvironment where complex intercellular signals converge to regulate stem cell maintenance, differentiation and tissue ...

Researchers studied what happens immediately after a stroke in the stem cell niche known as the subventricular zone, using a mouse model. This revealed a mechanism that results in fewer newborn ...
