• following tamoxifen treatment, the numbers of SOX2/GFAP+ cells with radial glial morphology and GFAP/nestin+ cells at the base of the dentate gyrus are reduced 40% compared to in wild-type mice or untreated controls
• following tamoxifen treatment, the numbers of SOX2/GFAP+ cells with radial glial morphology and GFAP/nestin+ cells at the base of the dentate gyrus are reduced 40% compared to in wild-type mice or untreated controls
• following tamoxifen treatment, proliferation of neuronal precursor cells downstream of stem cells is decreased compared to in wild-type mice or untreated controls
• following tamoxifen treatment, doublecortin+ cells exhibit reduced proliferation compared to in wild-type mice but to a lesser extent than earlier precursors
