Increased spine density of superficial pyramidal neuron in Lrp4ECD/ECD mice. A Representative Golgi staining of piriform cortical neurons in mice. B The representative spine on mice’s superficial pyramidal neuron (SP, arrowhead in A) and semilunar neuron (SL, arrow in A). C Quantification of spine density on SP neurons. The mature and total spine density of SP neurons in Lrp4ECD/ECD mice were more than in the control mice. D Quantification of spine density on SL neurons. Lrp4ECD/ECD mice exhibited a similar spine density of SL neurons than the control mice, except for a little increase in the thin type of spine. (Control mice, n = 6; Lrp4ECD/ECD mice, n = 6. Values were means ± SEM. * P < 0.05, **P < 0.01)
