Quantification of neurites was achieved by staining PFA‐fixed cortical and hippocampal neurons with a mouse MAP2 antibody (1:1000, Millipore). Sample digital images of MAP2 stained neurons of a fixed area were obtained from the same location in the 24‐well plate of control or experimental cultures blindly and the amount of immunofluorescence was quantified utilizing ImageJ analysis software.18 Data were expressed as the amount of MAP2 stain per unit area. A single N value represents average stain quantified per area per a single culture well.
