LRP4 LDLα domain enhances the dendrite arborization of neurons in mr-Lrp4mitt mice. a Representative images of Golgi staining the neurons in the cerebral cortex of the control, mr-Lrp4LacZ, and mr-Lrp4mitt mice; using the ImageJ plugin for Sholl analysis; b The total dendrite length of neurons in mr-Lrp4mitt mice increased; c The total dendrite branch number of neurons in mr-Lrp4mitt mice increased. d Sholl analysis of dendrite branch number of the three types of mice. Multiple comparisons were made between mr-Lrp4mitt and the control mice (Above the curves) or between mr-Lrp4mitt and mr-Lrp4LacZ mice (Below the curves). Control mice, n = 6; mr-Lrp4LacZ mice, n = 3; mr-Lrp4mitt mice, n = 3; Neuron per group, n = 34. (Scale bar = 30 μm; Values are means ± SEM. t-test and two-way ANOVA were used for analysis. n.s., not significant, * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001)
