Synapse Plasticity in Motor, Sensory, and Limbo-Prefrontal Cortex Areas as Measured by Degrading Axon Terminals in an Environment Model of Gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus)
Figure 5
Comparison between silver granule densities of enriched- (ER, uni) and impoverished-reared (IR, striped) gerbils in layer II/III (a) and layer V (b) of motor (Fr1, HL), sensory (Par1, Te1, Oc1, Oc2MM), and prefronto-limbic areas (IL, Cg3, Cg1, IC, PRh). Note higher density values of Cg1 in ER-animals and higher values of PRh in IR-animals. Data are given as mean standard error. Asterisks indicate levels of significance according to posthoc analysis of variance (ANOVA) testings. : , : . For abbreviations see legend to Figure 4.
