## Abstract Although neuroanatomical plasticity has been demonstrated in the rat visual cortex, no systematic data on the dendritic development of the area are available. In the present study, the visual cortex of hooded rats at 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 15 postnatal days of age (P1โP15) was impregnated w
## Abstract Male rats were either undernourished or fed normally from birth to day 21, after which time food was made freely available. At 1 month of age littermate pairs from both nutritional groups were housed in either enriched or impoverished conditions for 30 days and then killed for brain mea
Axo-dendritic synaptic profiles were quantified along the whole depth of the visual cortex of 10-day-old male and female rats. In both sexes the numerical density of synaptic profiles on spine-like structures was greater than the numerical density of synapses on dendritic shafts. Females had a signi
