The poster was presented on July 3rd 2018 at the World Congress of Pharmacognosy 2018 in Kyoto Japan with the following conclusions:
1) CV biomass oral administration promotes a significant increase in dendritic length and branching and total dendritic volume of immature neurons, suggesting a positive effect in the hippocampal neurogenic reserve.
2) Increase of β-catenin levels both in nucleus and cytoplasm of DG immature neurons, suggests that Wnt/β-catenin signalling plays an important role in the CV positive effect on the dendritic complexity of hippocampal newly-generated neurons.
3) The so far unexplored neurogenic potential of CV supplementation emerges as a possible preventive strategy for different neurological conditions.
