Figure 3. Loss of dendritic spines in the high saline-administrated rats.
(A) Golgi staining showed high salt rats display a decreased dendritic spine in hippocampus compared to wild type control rats. (B) Quantitative analysis for spine density from randomly selected dendritic segments of neurons. (C) Nissl staining was measured to the number of neurons in hippocampus. (D) Quantitative analysis for neuron density. All data represent as mean ± SEM, **p < 0.01 versus control.
