Figure 4. Total dendritic lengths in CA1 and CA3 apical and basal trees following protracted abstinence from chronic adolescent or adult nicotine or saline administration.

Figure 4

A) Chronic nicotine administration during adolescence resulted in reduced total dendritic length in the apical trees of CA1 pyramidal cells when examined in adulthood following a 30-day drug abstinent period. B) No significant differences in CA1 apical or basal dendritic length were found following chronic nicotine or saline administration to adult mice. C) There were no differences in dendritic length in CA3 apical or basal dendrites between in nicotine or saline exposed adolescent mice. D) Chronic nicotine administration during adulthood reduced the total dendritic length in the basal tree of pyramidal cells in the CA3. * p < 0.05; n = 3-4 mice (10 neurons)/drug/age.
