Hard times are coming: Brain tissue stiffness is crucial for neurogenesis

by Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres In mammalian adult brains, neural stem cells are only present in few specific regions, so-called niches. Only these niches are capable of generating new neurons. For the first time, researchers have defined the proteome of these niches, the entire set of expressed proteins, and compared it to other...
