MPTP Neurotoxicity and Testosterone Induce Dendritic Remodeling of Striatal Medium Spiny Neurons in the C57Bl/6 Mouse
Figure 4
Branch order totals. Spine density (a) and dendritic length (b) for first- to fifth-order branches in striatal medium spiny neurons ( mice/group). Saline-injected mice include gonad-intact (black bars) and orchidectomized (white bars) males. MPTP-treated mice include gonad-intact (dark gray bars) and orchidectomized (light gray bars) males. Bars represent an effect of MPTP (), and asterisks represent an effect of gonadectomy (). Abbreviations: OrchX, orchidectomized; Sham, sham-orchidectomized.
