Morphometric analysis of progesterone effects on PC soma and dendrites. Morphometric analysis of total dendritic length (one dendrite exemplary labeled, red), total cell area and soma area (yellow) of transfected PC were done twice, before and after drug incubation for 24 h with the aid of a Zeiss LSM physiology kit. a Untreated PC (15 div) 24 h after transfection with YFP-actin (green). b The same PC after progesterone treatment for 1 day. c Changes of morphometric parameters are given in percent; error bars SD. All scale bars 50 μm
