Ascl1 (Mash1) defines cells with long-term neurogenic potential in subgranular and subventricular zones in adult mouse brain. by Euiseok J Kim, Jessica L Ables, Lauren K Dickel, Amelia J Eisch, Jane E Johnson

“…There is a regionally-specific difference in neuron generation, with mice given TAM at postnatal day 50 showing new dentate gyrus neurons through 30 days post-TAM, but showing new olfactory bulb neurons even 180 days post-TAM. These results show that Ascl1 is not restricted to transit amplifying populations but is also found in a subset of neural stem cells with long-term neurogenic potential in the adult brain.…”

Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Parkinson’s Disease: Impact on Neuronal Survival and Plasticity by Martin Regensburger, Iryna Prots, Beate Winner

“…The generation of newborn neurons in the adult hippocampus and in the subventricular zone/olfactory bulb system is affected by many different regulators and possibly involved in memory processing, depression, and olfaction, symptoms which commonly occur in PD. …”

Characterization of Key Odorants in Soy Sauce and Their Concentration Changes during Storage by Rui Wang, Shiyu Chang, Miao Liang, Yajian Wu, Runhu Xin, Yuping Liu, Liang Chen, Shangting Zhou

“…To explore the key odorants and their concentration changes in high-salt liquid-state fermentation soy sauce (HLFSS) during storage, solvent extraction coupled with solvent-assisted flavor evaporation was applied to isolate the volatiles in HLFSS, and the volatiles were analyzed by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry-olfactory and gas chromatograph-flame ionization detector-olfactometry combined with the aroma extract dilution assay. …”
