All data is in μm ± SEM. Includes RCs used analysis of both VAChT and VGLUT1.

Frequently, but not always, this was done in single cells triple immunolabeled for both inputs and calbindin-immunoreactivity.

Maximum indicates the average of the farthest dendritic point measured for each RC. Average is the average of mean lengths of all dendrites analyzed in each RC. Rostro-caudally oriented dendrites are cut at the surfaces of the 75 μm thick section and are therefore always shorter than dendrites travelling in the transverse plane. Total is the average of dendritic length analyzed per cell after adding the lengths of all dendritic segments analyzed in each RC.
