Dendritic and axonal patterns of basket and bistratified cells recorded in the CA1 and CA2 subfields of the adult rat hippocampus

Cell type Dendritic height (μm) Dendritic width (μm) Axonal width (μm)
CA1 basket cells (n = 12) 616 ± 72 319 ± 77 718 ± 163
CA2 basket cells wide arbor (n = 10) 581 ± 137 537 ± 126 879 ± 172
CA2 basket cells narrow arbor (n = 6) 628 ± 69 331 ± 60 551 ± 66
CA1 bistratified cells (n = 6) 567 ± 101 320 ± 89 808 ± 254
CA2 bistratified cells (n = 4) 502 ± 70 462 ± 173 742 ± 160
  • The dendritic width of the second type of CA2 basket cells was significantly broader than that of the first type of CA2 basket cells and of CA1 basket cells (Mann–Whitney U test, p < 0.05; U = 0). Their axons extended farther than those of CA2 basket cells with narrow dendritic arbor (Mann–Whitney U test, p < 0.05; U = 0).
