Camera lucida drawings of representative Golgi-impregnated dentate gyrus granule cells from brains of sham operated (A, B, C), adrenalectomized (I, E, F) and adrenalectomized plus corticosterone (G, H, I) animals. There is a decrease in dendritic branch points in all three cell types [granule cells located in the genu (A, D, G), granule cells with single primary dendrites (B, E, H) and granule cells with multiple primary dendrites (C, F, I) with adrenalectomy compared with sham operation and adrenalectomy plus corticosterone.
