Figure 5: Comparison of the size of ipsilateral and contralateral tectopulvinar terminals and their postsynaptic targets.

Figure 5:

Within animal comparison of ipsilateral and contralateral projections from SC to PUL labeled with the SV-HRP virus. (a,b) Quantitative analysis of the size of presynaptic terminal and postsynaptic dendrite sizes. (c,d) Quantitative analysis of the sizes of ipsilateral and contralateral presynaptic terminals, comparing those with and without dendritic protrusions. (e,f) Quantitative analysis of the sizes of ipsilateral and contralateral presynaptic terminals, comparing those with and without mitochondria. Unpaired non-parametric - t test (Mann-Whitney U test) was performed for statistical analysis. ** p ≤ 0.005; *** p ≤ 0.0005; ns = non-significant. Black bars indicate mean and standard deviation.
