Description:
Neurovascular EGFL7 regulates adult neurogenesis in the subventricular zone and thereby affects olfactory perception Nature Communications, Published online: 28 June 2017; doi:10.1038/ncomms15922 The vascular stem cell niche regulates the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) in the adult subventricular zone. Here the authors identify EGFL7 as a neurovascular regulator of NSCs in vivo ; EGFL7 -knockout mice show reduced neurogenesis, and exhibit impaired olfactory perception and behaviour.
