Sentence examples for average spine density from inspiring English sources

The average spine density (number of spines per 10 µm of dendritic length) was estimated on the first segments of apical dendrites.

Neurons co-expressing the ABD of βI-spectrin and GFP also displayed a small (∼20%), but significant, decrease in average spine density as compared to GFP transfected neurons (n = 5 neurons/group p<0.01, ANOVA and Tukey's test)(Fig. 3C).

As shown in Table 1A, average spine density values were not significantly different in treated and control groups in the proximal dendritic domain at 2 (F 3,269) = 2.59, P>0.05, one-way ANOVA) and 24 hours (F 3,285) = 1.42, P>0.2, one-way ANOVA) or in the distal domain at 2 (F 3,195) = 1.67, P>0.17, one-way ANOVA) and 24 hours (F 3,190) = 1.69, P>0.17, one-way ANOVA) (Fig. 1A and 1B).

Even exclusive of the severely aberrant neurons, average spine density was decreased in Tat+ mice.

We purposely left these grossly abnormal neurons out of the measurements of average spine density so as not to unduly bias the results.

However, unlike the forced survival through Bcl2 expression, increased survival of GCs through physical exercise or EE did not lower the average spine density of newborn GCs (Zhao et al., 2014), suggesting that exercise and EE likely promote cell survival through enhancing spine formation in newborn GCs.

To obtain a more accurate assessment of spine density in the seemingly normal dendrites, neurons with these extremely spine deficiencies were not included in the calculation of average spine densities.

Spine density (spine number/10 µm) measures were obtained for each dendrite and averaged within mice. Figure 2 presents mean dendritic spine density in CA1 pyramidal layer and dentate molecular layer for ephrin-A2 -/- and wildtype mice, contrasting rTMS to sham.

Long-term expression of ABP-tdEosFP did not affect the spine density (average of 13.1 spines per 10 µm dendrite, N = 8 fields of view from 3 independent experiments), which was found to be comparable to the synapse density of untransfected neurons of similar age [22].

Spine density was calculated as the average number on a 20 µm length scale.

Here spine density (number of spines/10 µm dendrite) was averaged in 200 µm radius from the soma.
