“The potential benefits of neurogenesis on repairing brain injury from neurodegenerative disease are most effective during early and middle stages of neurodegeneration.”

“These improvements were comparable to those observed with common antidepressant drugs. Another study investigated the effects of omega-3s on brain inflammation, which impairs neurogenesis and is often high among people with depression.”

“The overall health of hypothalamic neurons requires their regular renewal, a process known as neurogenesis, which is impaired in obesity. Findings from a 2016 study showed that docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a type of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), increased hypothalamic neurogenesis in mice.”

“Exercise proved especially effective, not only reducing fear but also easing anxiety-like behaviors. The same neurogenesis-boosting strategies also weakened reward-based memories associated with drug exposure, suggesting this approach could help in treating addiction.”

“Physical and cognitive aging Studies in mice have demonstrated that nicotinamide riboside supplementation enhances longevity, increases neurogenesis, decreases cognitive deterioration and amyloid-beta production, and increases synaptic plasticity.”

“Findings from a recent study suggest that brain-derived oleic acid activates neural stem cells in the hippocampus, promoting neurogenesis – the generation of new neurons. The hippocampus is a small organ located within the brain's medial temporal lobe.”

“It reduces circulating IGF-1 levels, redirecting them to muscle—where it supports repair and growth—and the brain—where it supports neurogenesis, rather than letting it linger in circulation to activate immune-cell mTOR.”

“The loss of hippocampal neurogenesis (the formation of new neurons) is an early indicator of Alzheimer's disease. A recent study in rats shows that gut microbial transplants from people with Alzheimer's inhibit hippocampal neurogenesis and impair memory.”

“Ganciclovir administration to GFAP-thymidine kinase (GFAP-TK) transgenic mice, which express thymidine kinase in adult neural progenitor cells, abrogated CBD-induced hippocampal neurogenesis.”

“Findings from a recent study in mice found that PF4, an exerkine derived from platelets, promotes the production of hippocampal precursor cells in the brains of older mice. Researchers injected PF4 into mice and assessed its effects on hippocampal neurogenesis (the growth of new brain cells).”
