Figure 4. Quantification and size of axonal swellings.

Figure 4

(a) Number of axonal swellings in parental SwissOF1-En1+/−, C57Bl/6-N4-En1+/−, F2-En1+/−. (b) Size of axonal swellings in parental SwissOF1-En1+/−, C57Bl/6-N4-En1+/−, F2-En1+/−. Axonal swellings indicated by arrows in dorso-lateral striatum of parental SwissOF1-En1+/− (c), C57Bl/6-N4-En1+/− (d) and F2-En1+/− (e). (f) Correlation of average size and number of axonal swelling (r = 0.62, p < 0.0001). (g) Correlation of average axonal swelling size vs number of DNs (n.s.). (h) Correlation of axonal swelling number vs number of DNs (n.s.). (i) Correlation of number of swellings per DN vs number of remaining DNs (r = −0.37, p < 0.001). **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05.
