Young neurons born in the subventricular zone (SVZ) of adult mice
migrate to the olfactory bulb (OB) where they differentiate into
granule cells (GCs) and periglomerular interneurons. Using retroviral labeling of precursors in the SVZ, we describe five stages
and the timing for the maturation of newly formed GCs: (1)
tangentially migrating neuroblasts (days 2-7); (2) radially migrating
young neurons (days 5-7); (3) GCs with a simple unbranched dendrite
that does not extend beyond the mitral cell layer (days 9-13); (4) GCs
with a nonspiny branched dendrite in the external plexiform layer (days
11-22); and (5) mature GCs (days 15-30). Using
[3H]thymidine, we show that the maximum number of
labeled GCs is observed around day 15 after injection. Interestingly,
between days 15 and 45 after birth, soon after the cells developed
spines, the number of [3H]thymidine-labeled GCs
declined by 50%. Using anosmic mice, we found that sensory input was
critical for the survival of GCs from day 15 to 45 after labeling.
However, the number and morphology of 15-d-old cells in the granule
cell layer was similar in anosmic and wild-type mice. We infer that the
lack of activity did not have an effect on the generation, migration,
and early differentiation of granule cells. Soon after young GCs
matured, and presumably became synaptically connected, their survival
depended on the level of activity that they received. This selection
mechanism might allow the construction of specific OB circuits based on olfactory experience and suggests possible functions of OB cell replacement.
