Adolescent stress alters DVB neurite outgrowth dynamics in adulthood. (A) Diagram of L4 to adult period with boxes depicting stressors applied in early L4. Quantification of (B) total neurite length and (C) neurite junctions for DVB in control and early L4 stressed males at day 1 of adulthood corresponding confocal maximum projections are rightmost column panels of D. (D) Confocal z-stack maximum projections of DVB neuron in control and early L4 stressed males at different times throughout the L4 stage into early adulthood (ten males observed for each time point and condition). Bar, 10 μm. Arrowheads indicate single neurites before, during, and after L4 molt.
