Lack of neurogenesis in the adult rat cerebellum after Purkinje cell degeneration and growth factor infusion.

Grimaldi P, Rossi F (2006) Lack of neurogenesis in the adult rat cerebellum after Purkinje cell degeneration and growth factor infusion. Eur J Neurosci 23(10):2657-2668. doi: 10.1111/j.1460-9568.2006.04803.x

Summary: Although neurogenesis occurs in very specific areas of the mammalian brain, neural progenitors can be found in many central nervous system sites. Here the authors examined neurogenesis in the rat cerebellum. 2.2 µg of 192-IgG-SAP (Cat. #IT-01) was injected into each lateral ventricle, and some animals were given exogenous EGF, bFGF, or FGF8. In this model, the local environment was not sufficient to direct neuronal differentiation, even with the addition of growth factors.
