Adult Neurogenesis, Glia, and the Extracellular Matrix
Open accessAbstract
In the adult mammalian hippocampus, new neurons arise from stem and progenitor cell division, a process known as adult neurogenesis. Adult-generated neurons are sensitive to experience and may participate in hippocampal functions, including cognition, anxiety/stress regulation, and social behavior. Increasing evidence emphasizes the importance of new neuron connectivity within the hippocampal circuitry for understanding the impact of adult neurogenesis on brain function. In this Review, we discuss how the functional consequences of new neurons arise from the collective interactions of presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons, glial cells, and the extracellular matrix, which together form the “tetrapartite synapse”.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This review argues that adult hippocampal neurogenesis and its functional effects depend on new neuron connectivity within the “tetrapartite synapse,” comprising pre- and postsynaptic neurons, glia, and extracellular matrix. It synthesizes rodent evidence showing that experience and pathology alter new neuron production, integration, and behavior, with glia and ECM as key regulators.
Key findings
- Adult hippocampal neurogenesis produces dentate gyrus granule cells; as many as 9,000 new granule cells are added daily to the young adult rat dentate gyrus. New neurons receive GABAergic inputs first, then glutamatergic input from hilar mossy cells, then entorhinal cortical input, and strongly resemble developmentally generated granule cells by 4–6 weeks post-mitosis.
- Adult-born neurons have been linked to hippocampal cognition, anxiety/stress regulation, social behavior, and pattern separation, but direct manipulations often yield inconsistent results; some studies find no effect of reduced neurogenesis, effects only on certain cognitive tests, or even improved cognitive function after ablation.
- More new neurons are not always beneficial: stroke, seizure, and blunt trauma increase adult neurogenesis yet are associated with reduced cognitive function; inhibiting neurogenesis reduces chronic seizures and seizure-related cognitive decline as well as stroke-induced cognitive decline. Fluoxetine-induced overproduction of new neurons was associated with cognitive decline, increased susceptibility to stress-induced depression, and excessive anxiety.
- Rewarding experiences such as voluntary exercise, environmental enrichment, and sexual experience enhance adult neurogenesis and hippocampal function, whereas aversive stress, aging, and parenting suppress it. Glia and ECM components—including chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans, reelin, MMP9, tenascin-R, and perineuronal nets—regulate new neuron number, migration, dendritic maturation, synapse formation/elimination, and plasticity; ECM is noted to compose approximately 20% of brain volume.
Methods
- Narrative review; no primary experimental data or sample. It synthesizes published rodent studies except where otherwise stated.
- Focuses on adult hippocampal neurogenesis and the tetrapartite synapse, citing evidence on stem/progenitor division, new neuron integration, behavior, glia, ECM, and perineuronal nets; includes Table 1 and Figures 1–4.
- Main analysis is qualitative synthesis of cited literature; no systematic review, meta-analysis, or new statistical analysis is reported.
Limitations
- Stated: the extent of adult neurogenesis in humans remains debated, with some studies contradicting positive findings; direct manipulations of adult neurogenesis often produce inconsistent behavioral results.
- Stated gaps: several areas are relatively uninvestigated, including how enriched environment alters axon connections of adult-generated neurons, effects of sexual experience on stem cells and connectivity, PNNs in adult neurogenesis, MMPs in intact adult neurogenesis, and the extent to which glia influence functional connectivity of new neurons.
- Evident: as a narrative review relying largely on rodent studies, it cannot establish causality or quantify effect sizes; conclusions depend on the selection and interpretation of cited literature.

Saxe et al. (2006) is cited as finding no cognitive effect, but its listed title reports an impairment
MinorThe text places Saxe et al. (2006) among studies finding no effect of reduced neurogenesis on hippocampal cognition. Its reference title instead states that ablation impairs contextual fear conditioning, a test the text itself identifies as hippocampal-dependent cognition.
“On the other hand, contradictory studies have found either no effect of reduced neurogenesis on hippocampal cognition (Groves et al., 2013; Saxe et al., 2006; Shors et al., 2002)”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
