Histological studies of the stratum pyramidale often involve techniques such as Nissl staining to highlight the cell bodies of pyramidal neurons. Immunohistochemistry can be used to label specific proteins, such as glutamate receptors, to study the functional aspects of these neurons. Additionally, Golgi staining is employed to visualize the morphology of neurons, including their dendritic and axonal processes. Advanced imaging techniques, such as confocal microscopy, allow for detailed three-dimensional reconstructions of these cells.
