Chronic restraint stress produced apical dendritic retraction in pyramidal neurons in prelimbic cortex of males, and apical dendritic hypertrophy in females. A. Reconstructions of representative neurons from unstressed and stressed male and female rats. Scale bar, 50 µm. B. Mean (±SEM) length of apical dendrites for male and female unstressed versus stressed rats. *p < 0.05 relative to unstressed males, † p < 0.05 relative to unstressed females. Modified from [69].
