Figure 2

Assessment of granule cells, glia, and granule cell layer in dentate gyrus (DG) of suicides and controls. Unmedicated suicides have decreased numbers of granule cells in the anterior DG (a), as well as decreased volume in the anterior DG (b). Granule cell neuronal density was unchanged in the anterior DG (c). Granule cell body size was increased in suicides in the posterior DG (d). Number of glial cells was decreased for unmedicated suicides compared to controls in the anterior DG (e). Ratio of granule cell neurons to glia in the overall DG did not differ between groups (f). *P<0.05. AD, antidepressant.
