(A) Transmission electron microscopy image showing pre- and post-synaptic neuronal compartments, mitochondria (red) and vesicles (yellow) located next to the synapse. (B-G) Graphs showing mean differences between B6 and D2 stress-susceptible, resilient and control mice in (B) maximum (length) and (C) minimum (width) diameters of mitochondrial cross-sections, (D) mean mitochondrial cross-section length/width ratio, i.e., maximum/minimum diameter (E) mean number of mitochondrial cross-sections (F-G) number of mitochondrial cross-sections per (F) pre-synaptic and (G) post-synaptic cellular compartment. P-values were adjusted for multiple testing with test-wise Bonferroni correction. Mean values ± S.E.M. B6: C57BL/6NCrl; Con: control; D2: DBA/2NCrl; Res: resilient; Sus: susceptible.
