Eph/ephrin signaling pathway and the research progress of its mechanism in adult neurogenesis after cerebral injury / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective Recent researches indicate that Eph/ephrin signaling pathway is possibly related to adult neurogenesis after cerebral injury..With brief introduction of their structures and interactions,the review focus on their possible mechanism in adult neurogenesis.Methods The literatures between 2010 and 2015 were retrieved following online databasesPUBMED,ScienceDirect,Wanfang and CNKI database.The key words used in the reasearch were Eph,ephrin,cerebral injury,adult neurogenesisand so on.Results Totally 42 related articles were enrolled.And these papers discribed how researchers performed their experiments and further explained Eph/ephrin 's vital roles in adult neurogenesis.Conclusion Eph/ephrin signaling can influence adult neurogenesis after cerebral injury.positively or negatively.And Akt may be a downstream signaling molecule of Eph/ephrin that change the progress of adult neurogenesis.However,the detailed mechanisms remain to be further study.
