Effects of blockers of receptors on CORT-induced changes in the thorn density. A 1 h treatment in ACSF without drugs (Control), with 1 μM CORT (CORT), with 1 and 10 μM RU486 (CORT + RU), with 1 μM CORT and 20 μM CNQX (CORT + CNQX), and with 1 μM CORT and 50 μM MK-801 (CORT + MK). Vertical axis is the average number of thorns per 1 μm of dendrite. Results are reported as mean ± SEM. The significance of CORT or drug effect was examined using the Tukey–Kramer post hoc multiple comparisons test when one way ANOVA tests yielded P < 0.05. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 vs. Control. #P < 0.05 vs. CORT. For each drug treatment, we investigated 3 rats, 6 slices, 12 neurons, 12 dendrites, and 1400–1800 thorns.
