Morphological properties of pyramidal-like neurons in the lateral amygdala from 7 month old ApoE TR mice

E3/E3
(n=10)		 E2/E4
(n=7)		 E4/E4
(n=8)		 C57
(n=9)		 KO
(n=8)
Soma area (µm2) 110 ± 12 102 ± 6 114±13 140±14 132 ± 13
Number of primary dendrites 4.5 ± 0.3 4.7 ± 0.4 4.8 ± 0.4 4.4 ± 0.4 4.6 ± 0.5
Number of nodes Total 18.0 ± 1.9 14.7 ± 0.4* 12.6 ± 1.5* 17.4 ± 1.4 16.8 ± 1.7
dendritic length (µm) 2635 ± 322 1696 ± 122* 1697 ± 144* 2247 ± 158 2677 ± 280

Significant differences are in comparison to apoE3/E3 (*p<0.05).
