In adults, stem cells that produce new neurons are primarily found in the hippocampus, a region of the brain associated with learning and memory. These neural stem cells can give rise to new neurons through a process called neurogenesis. Additionally, some evidence suggests that stem cells may also be present in other areas of the brain, such as the olfactory bulb and the striatum, although neurogenesis is most well-studied in the hippocampus.

Neural stem cells produce neurons. These cells are found in the central nervous system and have the ability to differentiate into different types of neurons.
In adults, the primary source of stem cells that produce new neurons is the hippocampus, a region of the brain associated with learning and memory. These stem cells, known as neural progenitor cells, are located in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus. Additionally, some neural stem cells can be found in other areas, such as the olfactory bulb and the striatum, but their activity is much more limited compared to that in the hippocampus.

Neural stem cells produce neurons. These cells are found in the central nervous system and have the ability to differentiate into different types of neurons.
The three types of stem cells in adults are hematopoietic stem cells (found in bone marrow and produce blood cells), mesenchymal stem cells (found in various tissues like bone marrow and fat, can differentiate into bone, cartilage, and fat cells), and neural stem cells (found in the brain and spinal cord, can differentiate into neurons and supporting cells).

In the brain
In the adult body, neural stem cells are responsible for producing new neurons. These stem cells are mainly found in two regions of the brain: the hippocampus, which is involved in learning and memory, and the subventricular zone, which contributes to the generation of olfactory neurons.
Nerve cells, also known as neurons, are derived from neural stem cells located within the central nervous system. During development, these stem cells divide and differentiate into specialized nerve cells. In adults, some regions of the brain may continue to generate new neurons through a process called neurogenesis.
