Abstract:
Highlights? Wnt inhibitor sFRP3 exhibits activity-dependent expression in the adult hippocampus ? sFRP3 maintains quiescence of adult hippocampal radial glia-like neural stem cells ? sFRP3 inhibits maturation, dendritic development, and spinal formation of new neurons ? sFRP3 partially mediates activity-dependent adult hippocampal neurogenesis
