Figure 6. Repeated stress changes spine density patterns in LAT and BA neurons.

Figure 6

A) When measured over branch order, repeated stress increased spine density in LAT (left) and BA (right) principal neurons. B) When spine density data is normalized, different patterns emerged in the effects of stress. Repeated stress significantly shifted the distribution of spine densities across dendritic branches in the LAT (left) but not the BA (right). C) Subtraction of the spine densities across dendritic branches indicates that repeated stress increased spine density in low order branches of LAT neurons with minimal impact on spine density in BA neurons. * indicates LAT group significantly different than 0.
