To determine if there were any morphological differences across our sample neurons, we used NeuroExplorer software (MicroBrightfield, Williston, VT) to measure maximum cell diameter, number of primary dendrites, and their percentage of primary dendrites with secondary branches, and compared these morphometry values across treatment groups. Data are mean ± standard deviation (SD).
No statistical differences in any comparisons across groups (p > .05).
