Synaptogenesis via dendritic filopodia in developing hippocampal area CA1. Slices have more synapses than perfusion-fixed hippocampus from both young and mature rats. Localization of synapses inrat cortical cultures. Critical assessment of the involvement of perforations, spinules, and spine branching in hippocampalsynapse formation. Slices have more synapses than perfusion-fixed hippocampus from both young and mature rats.
Dendrites are more spiny on mature hippocampal neurons when synapses are inactivated.
