abstract = {Plasticity of adult neurogenesis supports adaptation to
environmental changes. The identification of molecular
mediators that signal these changes to neural progenitors in
the niche has remained elusive. Here we report that diazepam
binding inhibitor (DBI) is crucial in supporting an adaptive
mechanism in response to changes in the environment. We
provide evidence that DBI is expressed in stem cells in all
neurogenic niches of the postnatal brain. Focusing on the
hippocampal subgranular zone (SGZ) and employing multiple
genetic manipulations in vivo, we demonstrate that DBI
regulates the balance between preserving the stem cell pool
and neurogenesis. Specifically, DBI dampens GABA activity in
stem cells, thereby sustaining the proproliferative effect
of physical exercise and enriched environment. Our data lend
credence to the notion that the modulatory effect of DBI
constitutes a general mechanism that regulates postnatal
neurogenesis.},
