Deletion of huntingtin in mature neurons alters dendritic arborization of newborn hippocampal neurons.

<p>(<b>A</b>) Representative images of DCX immunostained slices in the upper blade of DG of control and mutant mice 6 months after tamoxifen injection. Scale bar : 50 µm. (<b>B</b>) Sholl analysis was performed on 12 randomly chosen DCX positive neurons in DG for each control and mutant mice (n=4 mice per group). (<b>C</b>) The total length of the dendrites of 12 randomly chosen DCX positive neurons in DG for each control and mutant mice was measured using NeuroLucida software (n=4 mice per group). * p<0.05 ** p<0.01 *** p<0.005.
