| Research Abstract |
The numbers of newly generated cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus, and the bulbar glomerular and granule cell layers were decreased by the repeated maternal separation during the suckling period. The decreases of newly generated cells were more pronounced in the maternally separated male rats than female rats, especially in the hippocampus. The effect of maternal separation stress on survival of the newly generated cells was gender-dependent.
