    Summary
    However, when analyzing dendritic morphology of hippocampal granular neurons in these animals, CBL appeared to attenuate dendritic deterioration caused by epilepsy, which was associated with improved cognitive performance of the CBL-treated animals in the BMT compared with vehicle-treated epileptic rats.
