Neurogenesis. Representative sections through the dentate gyrus stained for BrdU-DAB from a mouse in the A) CONT B) EE C) RUN and D) EE+RUN groups. E) Photographs of a representative section through the dentate gyrus of a mouse double-stained red for BrdU (bromodeoxyuridine) and green for NeuN (mature neuronal marker). The panels below show the tissue illuminated for each color separately and combined, zoomed in around the BrdU cell, indicating an episode of neurogenesis. F) Average number of new neurons in the dentate gyrus in the 4 groups. Standard error bars shown. G) Number of new neurons in the RUN and EE+RUN groups plotted against average distance run (km/day) across the 32 day study.
