At 25 days, corticospinal axon branching was sparse, with only a few scattered varicosities. By day 35, the mean number of branches, varicosities per branch, and varicosity density increased. Several morphologic measures did 展开 关键词: corticospinal tract motor cortex spinal cord axon branching...
The string-like structures (green asterisk, Fig. 7i) had similar heights to Filamin-A branches (Supplementary Fig. 6f,g). The presence of large aggregates (blue arrowhead in Fig. 7i, Supplementary Fig 6h,i), which are probably the multiple complex of CRMP1(S522D) and Filamin-A, may...
A well-defined cell culture model for axon to soma communication employs sympathetic neurons from the superior cervical ganglia (SCGs). SCGs express two types of neurotrophin receptors, the NGF-specific receptor tyrosine kinase TrkA and the p75 receptor (which binds all neurotrophins). Target-derived...
Although the motor axon is wrapped by myelin sheath formed by Schwann cells, the terminal region is only capped by perisynaptic Schwann cells without myelin formation (Fig. 1B). In mammalian muscles, the nerve terminal branches into multiple grape-like varicosities, called synaptic boutons, which...
Mutations in rpm-1 Alter the Distribution of Synaptic Vesicle Markers C. elegans NMJs are formed en passant between the motor neuron processes and specialized branches of the muscle cells, called muscle arms (53, 54). To visualize the presynaptic terminals of the GABAergic DD and VD motor neu...
Within a neuron, information typically flows in which directional order? a. soma, dendrites, axon b. dendrites, soma, axon c. dendrites, myelin, axon terminal d. axon terminal, neurilemma, dendrites The part of the neuron that sends...
Post ganglionic neurons of the parasympathetic system are found in the: a. paravertebral ganglia b. terminal ganglia c. spinal cord d. splanchnic nerves. Autonomic Nervous System: The autonomic nervous system is part of the peri...
For the spine/dendrite ratio analysis, secondary branches with similar width of apical dendrites of L2–3 pyramidal neurons in the somatosensory cortex were examined. Spine density was calculated by dividing the total spine number by the dendritic branch length. Spine subtypes were classified based on...
