  1. N: number of analyzed nuclei; NZ: number of nuclei with the shortest axis aligned with the Z-axis and used to compute flatness. The p-values of the pair wise comparisons between isolated nuclei and untreated cryosection nuclei are given in parenthesis. ±: Standard error. Untreated: cryosections.
