Adult Neurogenesis: Exploring the functions of new neurons

The turning point in neuroscience research has been the discovery that new neurons continue to be born in the adult mammalian brain throughout life. Recent studies have shown that this pool of neurons of newly generated neurons from the stem/precursor

cells are present in discreet and specific areas of the adult brain, namely the

Subventricular zone (SVZ) lining the lateral walls of the lateral ventricles and the subgranular zone within the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Adult neurogenesis has been shown to occur in a wide variety of mammalian species including humans.

The process of neurogenesis entails the proliferation of progenitors within their neurogenic niche, their survival, migration and eventual mature phenotypic fate choice. Several studies have been aimed at understanding these steps in the formation of new neurons. The focus of field has been to elucidate the molecular and cellular factors regulating the transition of these precursors into functional neurons, involving several key steps like their survival, migration and integration into existing neuronal circuitry. Several studies have demonstrated that the process of neurogenesis can be regulated by a wide variety of factors like hormones, external environment, exercise, stressful experiences as well as antidepressant treatments. In addition these neurons have also been shown to be recruited to damaged areas in the brain in response to injury. Although there have been considerable advances in the regulation of this process, However, little progress has been made towards understanding the relevance of new neurons in adult brain functioning and its implications on behaviour.

The presence of adult neurogenesis has been established and several studies have examined its regulation by a range of varied factors however, the functional significance of these adult generated neurons is not well understood. Recent reports have indicated that these neurons can integrate within the existing neuronal circuitry and can send out functional projections. These neurons have also been suggested to play a role in the process of learning and memory.

I propose to study the process of adult neurogenesis and the role of newly generated neurons in regulating normal behaviour. I will use rodents as model organisms to study the process of adult neurogenesis and make use of several behavioural paradigms to assess the function of these newly born neurons.

Cells generated within the SVZ of the lateral ventricles in a rodent, migrate along the rostral migratory stream to the olfactory bulb where they differentiate into olfactory bulb interneurons. In order to examine the role of these newborn neurons arising from the SVZ, I will focus on the olfactory conditioning paradigm.

Newly born cells within the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus, migrate a short distance into the granule cell layer of the dentate gyrus and integrate within the hippocampal circuitry. Given the role of the hippocampus in learning and memory, I will make use of hippocampal dependent tasks, such as the Morris water maze task (to assess spatial learning), the auditory fear conditioning paradigm etc to understand the role of new neurons within the SGZ of the dentate gyrus.

Furthermore, I plan to use the genetically modified mice wherein newly born neurons are labelled with a fluorescent marker protein and that expressing diphtheria toxin receptor which are currently being generated at the Queensland Brain Institute (QBI). Such mice will provide me with an excellent tool not only to ablate specific populations of new neurons within the brain but to do so in a temporally defined fashion as well. These studies along with the various behavioural paradigms will provide insight to the functions of newly generated neurons within an existing neuronal network of the adult brain.

Prof. Perry Bartlett and The Queensland Brain Institute harbours intellectual and technical expertise that will be invaluable towards my doctoral research and would give me an opportunity to contribute to this exciting field of neurogenesis.
