Kurnber, length, and diameters of dendritic spines of the granule cell in the dorsal leaf of the rat dentate gyrus were measured by using high-voltage electron microscope stereo images of 5-pm-thick Golgi preparations with the aid of a three-dimensional image analyzer system. Spine densities of 2.0
Recent work has emphasized the role of adhesion molecules in synaptic plasticity, including long-term potentiation in the hippocampus. Such adhesion molecules are concentrated in junctions that are characterized by dense thickenings on both sides of the junction and are called puncta adhaerentia (PA
