Neurons in the rat dentate gyrus granular layer substantially increase during juvenile and adult life

SA Bayer, JW Yackel, and PS Puri

Volumetric estimates of the total number of granule cells in rats 30, 120, 200, and 365 days old increase linearly by approximately 35 to 43 percent between 1 month and 1 year. Total volume of the granular layer also grows linearly during that time. These results demonstrate a numerical increase in a neuronal population during adulthood in the mammalian brain.
