Hippocampal Dendritic Spines Modifications Induced by Perinatal Asphyxia

Figure 2

Electron micrographs of osmium-uranium-lead-stained synapses in Stratum radiatum of CA1 hippocampal area from 4-month-old control rats and rats subjected to PA. The synapses (arrows) were intact, and no obvious alterations were seen in these osmium-uranium-lead-stained synapses after PA. AT: axon terminal. Scale bar: 0.5 μm.
