Rebooting functional integration of neurons following injury in the aged African turquoise killifish KU Leuven
Age-related neurodegenerative diseases have become a frequent cause of death in modern society since there are still no effective treatments available. To recover from the associated neuron loss, a large induction of adult neurogenesis, or neuroregeneration, is needed. Although new neurons are born in the adult vertebrate CNS, they often fail to successfully integrate in the aged non-permissive circuit. The fundamental processes underlying ...
