Enhancement of Neural Stem Cells after Induction of Depression in Male Albino Rats (A histological & Immunohistochemical Study).

Background And Objectives: Depression is one of the most prevalent psychiatric disorders. Endogenous neural stem cells (NSCs) could replace damaged Hippocampal neurons in depression. This work was planned to evaluate Rhodiola rosea (Rr) extract possible role in stimulation of NSCs proliferation and in depression improvement.
