- Title
A migratory stream in the human brain.
- Authors
Welberg, Leonie
- Abstract
The article investigates neuronal migration in the human brain using rodent models. Throughout the postnatal life of rodents, neural progenitor cells migrate from the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the forebrain through the rostral migratory system (RMS) to the olfactory bulb. Although humans also have an SVZ, until now the existence of an RMS had not been demonstrated. In this article, the researchers described evidence of a well-defined RMS in the human brain.
