Immature dendritic spine morphology in the DG in Shn2 KO mice. (a, b) Comparison of dendrite diameter (a) and spine density (b) in WT (n = 24 dendrites, 8 dendrites per each of 3 mice) and Shn2 KO mice (n = 24 dendrites, 8 dendrites per each of 3 mice). (c–l) Mean values of PSD area (c), spine length (d), spine neck length (e), spine head length (f), spine diameter (g), spine neck diameter (h), spine head diameter (i), spine volume (j), spine neck volume (k), and spine head volume (l) in WT (n = 547 spines from 24 dendrites, 8 dendrites per each of 3 mice) and Shn2 KO mice (n = 386 spines from 24 dendrites, 8 dendrites per each of 3 mice). The P-values were calculated using a Wilcoxon rank sum test
