Adult neurogenesis is a unique form of neuronal plasticity in which newly generated neurons are integrated into the adult dentate gyrus in a process that is modulated by environmental stimuli. Adult-born neurons can contribute to spatial memory but it is unknown whether they alter neural representations of space in the hippocampus. Using in vivo two-photon calcium imaging, we found that mice that were previously housed in an enriched environment, which triggers an increase in neurogenesis, had increased spatial information encoding in the hippocampal dentate gyrus during novel context exposure. Ablating adult neurogenesis by prior focal irradiation of the hippocampus blocked the effect of enrichment and lowered spatial information content, as did the chemogenetic silencing of adult-born neurons. Both ablating neurogenesis and silencing adult-born neurons decreased the calcium activity rates of dentate gyrus neurons, resulting in a decreased amplitude of place-specific responses. These findings are in contrast to previous studies that suggested a predominantly inhibitory action for adult-born neurons. We propose that adult neurogenesis improves neural representations of space by increasing the gain of dentate gyrus neurons and thereby improving their ability to tune to spatial features. This mechanism may mediate the beneficial effects of environmental enrichment on spatial learning and memory.
