Soma size. (A, C, and E) Distribution of mature neuron soma size (in cubic micrometers, µm³) in unoperated control (black), neonatal hippocampal-lesioned (red), and adult hippocampal-lesioned (blue) monkeys. Dashed vertical lines indicate the median for each group. (A) Paralaminar nucleus. (C) Lateral nucleus. (E) Basal nucleus. (B, D, and F) Number of neurons with a soma size smaller or larger than the median neuron size estimated in controls. (B) Paralaminar nucleus. (D) Lateral nucleus. (F) Basal nucleus. (Average ± SD; *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001). See also SI Experimental Procedures and SI Results.
