Circadian Changes of Dendritic Spine Geometry in Mouse Barrel Cortex

Circadian Changes of Dendritic Spine Geometry in Mouse Barrel Cortex

The circadian rhythmicity changes the density and shape of dendritic spines in mouse somatosensory barrel cortex, influencing their stability and maturation. In this study, we analyzed the main geometric parameters of dendritic spines reflecting the strength of synapses located on these spines under...
