The ability of fishes, amphibians, and reptiles to survive extremes of oxygen availability
derives from a core triad of adaptations: profound metabolic suppression, tolerance of ionic …

Adult neurogenesis is a widespread trait of vertebrates; however, the degree of this ability
and the underlying activity of the adult neural stem cells differ vastly among species. In …

In the brain of adult mice, cells that divide in the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricle
migrate up to 5 millimeters to the olfactory bulb where they differentiate into neurons. These …

Lifelong neurogenesis in vertebrates relies on stem cells producing proliferation zones that
contain neuronal precursors with distinct fates. Proliferation zones in the adult zebrafish …

Systematic analysis of autoradiograms prepared from postpubertal rhesus monkeys given
single and multiple injections of tritium-labeled thymidine and killed 3 days to 6 years later …

Post-embryonic neurogenesis is a fundamental feature of the vertebrate brain. However, the
level of adult neurogenesis decreases significantly with phylogeny. In the first part of this …

In contrast to mammals, fish exhibit an enormous potential to produce new cells in the adult
brain. By labeling mitotically dividing cells with 5‐bromo‐2′‐deoxyuridine (BrdU), we have …

The present chapter is devoted to the central nervous system of holostean and teleostean
fishes. Holostean species are restricted to only two genera, ie Lepisosteus (the gars), with …

The adult central nervous system (CNS) of the zebrafish, owing to its enrichment in
constitutive neurogenic niches, is becoming an increasingly used model to address …

Fish are distinctive in their enormous potential to continuously produce new neurons in the
adult brain, whereas in mammals adult neurogenesis is restricted to the olfactory bulb and …
