Annotation description: | Figure 4: using light microscopy and software assistance to categorized and count dendritic spines, authors observed that NgR1 (Nogo receptor-1, gene RTN4R) overexpression limits the number of mature mushroom spines in-vivo in neurons from frontal association cortex, the cingulate cortex, and nucleus accumbens regions of mouse brains. |
