A Dictionary of Psychology (4 ed.)
... n . The growth of new neurons to replace damaged ones. Throughout most of the 20th century, neuroscientists believed that this regenerative capacity was absent from the central nervous system and that it occurred only in the peripheral nervous system , but it was discovered shortly before the end of the century that neural stem cells in the ventricles and the hippocampus of the brain divide and proliferate, and that some of them migrate to other areas of the brain such as the olfactory bulbs to form new neurons. Techniques to stimulate...

A Dictionary of Biomedicine (2 ed.)
...methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 A protein (MeCP2, 486 aa) that binds to methylated CpG-rich regions of DNA and that contributes to silencing ( see DNA methylation and genomic imprinting ). MeCP2 regulates gene expression in neurons and is important in neurogenesis. The X-linked gene is mutated in Rett’s syndrome and some cases of Angelman’s syndrome...
