The establishment of ordered neuronal connections is supposed to take place under the
control of specific cell adhesion molecules (CAM) which guide neuroblasts and axons to …

Neurobiotin was injected into individual spinal interneurons in the Xenopus tadpole to
discern their anatomical features and complete axonal projection patterns. Four classes of …

The turtle posterior crista consists of two hemicristae. Each hemicrista extends from the
planum semilunatum to the nonsensory torus and includes a central zone (CZ) surrounded …

A neuron in vivo receives a continuous bombardment of synaptic inputs that modify the
integrative properties of dendritic arborizations by changing the specific membrane …

Dendritic trees often are complex, three‐dimensional structures. Comparative morphologic
studies have not yet provided a reliable measure to analyze and compare the geometry of …

The common root of the glossopharyngeal, vagal, and accessory nerves and the individual
branches of the vagus complex were labeled with cobalt, and the organization of the …

The aim of this study was to investigate whether primary vestibular afferent fibers establish
direct connections with the motor and sensory trigeminal system in the brainstem of the frog …

This work introduces a new approach to the characterization of neural cells by means of
semi-automated generation of dendrograms; data structures which describe the inherently …

Cobalt labelling studies on the localization and morphology of the frog's hypoglossal
nucleus have revealed three subnuclei. The dorsomedial subnucleus innervates the …

Moving visual stimuli elicit a sequence of coordinated activity of muscles including tongue
protraction. Morphological and physiological studies fail to reveal any direct tectal …
