Hippocampal neurogenesis is known as the formation of new neurons from the proliferating
neural progenitor cells (NPC) at the dentate gyrus. Cell proliferation, survival, differentiation …

Adolescents diagnosed with an alcohol use disorder show neurodegeneration in the
hippocampus, a region important for learning, memory, and mood regulation. This study …

Background Neurological deficits of alcohol use disorder (AUD) have been attributed to
dysfunctions of specific brain structures. Studies of alcoholic patients and chronic alcohol …

Alcohol exposure in utero can result in Fetal Alcohol Spectrums Disorders (FASD).
Measures of hippocampal neuroplasticity, including long‐term potentiation, synaptic and …

Binge alcohol exposure in adolescent rats potently inhibits adult hippocampal neurogenesis
by altering neural progenitor cell (NPC) proliferation and survival; however, it is not clear …

Neurogenesis in hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) and subventricular zone (SVZ) matures
during adolescence to adult levels. Binge drinking is prevalent in adolescent humans, and …

Binge alcohol consumption in adolescents is increasing, and studies in animal models show
that adolescence is a period of high vulnerability to brain insults. The purpose of the present …

Background: Prenatal alcohol exposure can cause damage to the developing fetus with
outcomes including growth deficiency, facial dysmorphology, brain damage, and cognitive …

This review discusses the contributions of a newly considered form of plasticity, the ongoing
production of new neurons from neural stem cells, or adult neurogenesis, within the context …

Adolescence is a developmental period that coincides with the maturation of adult cognitive
faculties. Binge drinking is common during adolescence and can impact brain maturation …
