Figure 6

Size of PSD95 puncta, asymmetric synapses and symmetric synapses. (a) Area of PSD95-positive puncta (µm2) acquired by SDM in the hippocampus (CA1) (Mean + SD). Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences. (b, c) Mean size of the synaptic apposition surface (SAS) of asymmetric and symmetric synapses (µm2) estimated from stacks of serial sections acquired by FIB-SEM from the same region.
