Comparative morphometric analysis of dendritic spines from pyramidal neurons in the contralesional SSCx. Analysis of (A, B, E, F, I, J) spine volume and (C, D, G, H, K, L) spine length for LY-injected pyramidal neurons in sham-operated and tMCAo mice for A−D) main apical, E–H) apical collateral, and I–L) basal dendrites. Data are shown as average per dendrite (A, C, E, G, I and K; unpaired Mann–Whitney test) and as a function of the distance from the soma (B, D, F, H, J and L, Two-way ANOVA repeated measures).
