1 Main New neurons are continuously generated in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus throughout adulthood. In the subgranular zone, adult neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPCs) give rise to neuroblasts, which further develop into immature and mature granule neurons (Denoth-Lippuner and Jessberger 2021). Adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN) contributes to neural plasticity and function, thereby modulating cognition, memory, and mood regulation (Toda et al. 2019).
