discuss and critically analyse how decreased dendritic spine density on prefrontal cortical pyramidal neurons could contribute to pathophysiology in schizophrenia

So we need to write an essay plan 500 words (Deadline 15-03-22.)+ an essay 1500 words
but do a plan bullet point and wait for final essay
because the teacher wil give the feedback

The word count includes everything in the main body of the text – headings, tables plus table legends, figures plus figure legends, in text citations.

We do not allow footnotes or appendices. Please also avoid using quotations as these are not considered good scientific writing in the context of this exercise. The Reference list you will add at the end of your essay is not included in the word count.

Title
Starting from the important study by Glantz et al (2000), discuss and critically analyse how decreased dendritic spine density on prefrontal cortical pyramidal neurons could contribute to pathophysiology in schizophrenia. In addition, debate whether more recent findings complement or support the hypothesis that reduced dendritic spine number contributes to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Glantz, L. A., & Lewis, D. A. (2000). Decreased dendritic spine density on prefrontal cortical pyramidal neurons in schizophrenia. Archives of general psychiatry, 57(1), 65-73. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/481552
