Neurogenic regions in the adult brain. a | Sagittal view of areas where adult neurogenesis occurs in the mouse brain. Pink areas indicate germinal zones: the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus in the hippocampus and the subventricular zone subjacent to the lateral ventricles. Immature neurons (green) generated in the subventricular zone migrate through the rostral migratory stream to the olfactory bulb. Coronal sections of b | olfactory bulb, c | rostral migratory stream, d | subventricular zone and e | dentate gyrus. Abbreviation: CA, Cornu Ammonis region.
