Experimental Group | Age | Synapses (#) | Axon Terminal Cross Sectional Area (square microns) |
---|---|---|---|
Aged Mouse Exp | |||
Young (n = 4) | 4 months | 90 ± 12 | 0.86 ± 0.06 |
Aged (n = 7) | 22 –24 months | 92 ± 10 | 1.22 ± 0.06* |
Values represent the means ± SEM of the mean cross-sectional area of 50 to 125 synapses sampled from the SMG-CG of each of n mice. Statistical comparison:
p ≤ 0.01;
p ≤ 0.05.
