Short-Term Environmental Enrichment Enhances Adult Neurogenesis, Vascular Network and Dendritic Complexity in the Hippocampus of Type 1 Diabetic Mice
Figure 6
Dendritic spine density of CA1 pyramidal neurons.
(A) Microphotographs of dendrites stained with the Golgi technique. Scale bar corresponds to 2 µm. (B) and (C) The quantification evidenced a reduction of the spine density in apical (B) and basal (C) dendrites in DIAB-SC mice (* p<0.05 and *** p<0.001 respectively vs. CTL-SC) with an increase in the DIAB-EE group (** p<0.01 for both apical and basal dendrites vs. DIAB-SC).
