Cortical mouse neurons at 7 days in vitro 7 (DIV7) are well polarized with a single, long, branched axon and shorter dendrites arising from the cell body. The cortical neurons were cultured from E17 m...

Synapse formation in cultured hippocampal neurons after 7 days in vitro. Cells were immunostained for MAP2, a microtubule associated protein localized to dendrites but not axons (green), and synapsin...
