1. Abstract
Neurogenesis in adult mammals is prominently observed in two specific brain regions: the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the subgranular zone (SGZ) of the hippocampal dentate gyrus. Neurons born in the SVZ migrate through the rostral migratory stream (RMS) to the olfactory bulb (OB), where they differentiate into interneurons. This migration is important for the sustenance and functional adaptation of the olfactory system, which is unique in its constant turnover of sensory receptor cells. The olfactory system, by its very design, maintains a direct link with the areas of the brain responsible for controlling various behaviors and emotional responses, making it a key component in the sensory-behavioral paradigm influencing adult neurogenesis. This discussion explores the mechanisms through which odors may influence the regeneration and migration of neuronal stem cells to the olfactory bulb (OB) and, consequently, affect neurogenesis.
