The distribution of propriospinal fiber terminals of the lateral funiculus in the lumbar segments of the cat spinal cord was examined by light and electron microscopy. For the selective demonstration of these terminals, preliminary hemisectioning of the brain at the boundary of the thoracic and lumbar segment, eliminating all the long descending pathways, and subsequent hemisectioning or sectioning of the lateral funiculus at the level of the third lumbar segment was carried out. It was established by staining the degenerating endings (by the Fink—Heimer method) that the terminals of the descending and ascending propriospinal fibers, which form part of the lateral and ventral funiculi, are located mainly in the lateral and medial parts of lamina VII and the dorsal section of lamina VIII, according to Rexed, as well as in the regions adjacent to the dorsolateral and ventromedial motor nuclei. A large number of these terminals is found in the corresponding regions of the gray matter on the contralateral side of the brain. Since, in the case of selective injury of the lateral funiculus the number of degenerating terminals in lamina VIII is noticeably decreased, it can be assumed that the propriospinal neuron terminals of the ventral funiculus are concentrated mainly in lamina VIII. The axons of the propriospinal neurons extend over several segments both in the ascending and in the descending directions. It was shown in an electron microscopic study of the regions in which most of the propriospinal terminals are located that these terminals are of an axo-dendritic nature and terminate in the dendrites of both inter- and motor neurons. Their degeneration can be of the "light" or "dark" type.A. A. Bogomolets Institute of Physiology, Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR.

We have carried out intracellular recording from the motor neurons of the lumbar section of the cat spinal cord with electrical stimulation of the propriospinal axons descending in the dorsolateral funiculus. To prevent activation of the long descending pathways of the lateral funiculus, ipsilateral hemisectioning of the spine was performed in the segments L1-L2 10–14 days before the experiment. Stimulation of the dorsolateral funiculus in two segments cranial to the point of recording elicited in the flexor motor neurons essentially e.p.s.p. and in the extensor neurons i.p.s.p. with a latent period, on the average, of 1.97 and 1.93 msec, respectively. The amplitude of such p.s.p. considerably rose with rise in the frequency of stimulation of the funiculus to 50–100 a second. Activation of the segmental interneurons was observed only in a few cases. It is assumed that the synaptic processes elicited in the lumbar motor neurons are the result of the monosynaptic influences of the propriospinal neurons.A. A.

Changes in electrical polarization of primary afferent terminals in the lumbosacral portion of the spinal cord were investigated during fictitious locomotion in immobilized decorticated and spinal cats. Fictitious locomotion was accompanied by stable hyperpolarization of the afferent terminals, against the background of which they were periodically depolarized in rhythm with efferent activity. These tonic and phasic changes were observed in terminals of all groups of afferent fibers tested: cutaneous and muscular (Ia and Ib). Periodic in-phase depolarization was carried out in different ipsilateral segments of the lumbosacral enlargement. During ficitious galloping changes in depolarization of the primary efferents were in phase on different sides; during fictitious walking, these periodic changes were out of phase. On the basis of these results the physiological importance of changes in electrical polarization of primary afferent terminals of the spinal locomotor generator is discussed.A. A.

The character and particular features of interaction between visual, auditory, and electrodermal afferent impulses on neurons of the pulvinar, posterolateral, and mediodorsal thalamic nuclei were studied in acute experiments on cats anesthetized with a mixture of pentobarbital and chloralose. Interaction discovered on cells of both groups of structures was of two types. In the first (the one most frequently found) only inhibition was observed or inhibition followed by facilitation of the response to testing stimulation; in the second type only facilitation or facilitation followed by inhibition of unit activity was found. Overall ability for interaction to take place on neurons of the mediodorsal nucleus was weaker than on cells of the pulvinar-posterolateral complex (P<0.05). Interaction was strongest on trisensory cells; it was also observed on monosensory cells or on cells which did not respond to isolated stimulation.Donetsk Medical Institute.

Mechanisms of the effect of stimulation of afferent fibers in ventral roots on dorsal horn interneurons were investigated in experiments on anesthetized cats. Dorsal horn interneurons on which such fibers project were shown to exist. In particular, some dorsal horn interneurons can exert an inhibitory influence on effects of dorsal root fiber activation.Institute of Physiology, Academy of Sciences of the Kazakh SSR, Alma-Ata.

Antibody-coated microprobes were inserted into the thoracic (T3-4) spinal cord in urethane-anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats to detect the differences in the release of immunoreactive substance P-like (irSP) substances in response to differential activation of cardiac nociceptive sensory neurons (CNAN). CNAN were stimulated either by intrapericardial infusion of an inflammatory ischemic exudate solution (IES) containing algogenic substances (i.e., 10 mM each of adenosine, bradykinin, prostaglandin E2, and 5-hydroxytryptamine), or by transient occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (CoAO). There was widespread basal release of irSP from the thoracic spinal cord. Stimulation of the CNAN by IES did not alter the pattern of release of irSP. Conversely, CoAO augmented the release of irSP from T3-4 spinal segments from laminae I-VII. This CoAO-induced irSP release was eliminated after thoracic dorsal rhizotomy. These results indicate that heterogeneous activation of cardiac afferents, as with focal coronary artery occlusion, represents an optimum input for activation of the cardiac neuronal hierarchy and for the resultant perception of angina. Excessive stimulation of cardiac nociceptive afferent neurons elicited during regional coronary artery occlusion involves the release of SP in the thoracic spinal cord and suggests that local spinal cord release of SP may be involved in the neural signaling of angina.  相似文献

Responses arising in ventral root filaments and antidromic discharges of single sympathetic preganglionic neurons in the lateral horn of gray matter in segment L2 of the cat spinal cord were recorded during stimulation of the white rami communicantes in the same segment. Conduction velocities, thresholds, and refractory periods were determined for individual groups of sympathetic preganglionic fibers. Excitation was conducted more slowly along the intramedullary part of the axons of some sympathetic neurons than along the extramedullary part. In a third group of neurons studied the second antidromic discharge appeared in response to paired stimulation if the interstimulus interval was appreciably longer than their refractory period. It is postulated that axons of sympathetic preganglionic neurons in the lumber spinal cord have a thin intramedullary part and are supplied with recurrent collaterals.I. P.

Although GABA and piperidine-4-sulphonic acid depolarize I a afferent terminations in the cat spinal cord by activation of bicuculline-sensitive GABA receptors, no evidence was obtained for a bicuculline-sensitive alteration by either gabamimetic of the electrical threshold of rubrospinal terminations in the spinal intermediate nucleus. The terminal axonal arborizations in the spinal cord of neurons in the red nucleus thus do not have GABA receptors similar to those on the cell bodies. The results are discussed in relation to the depolarizing action of GABA on some central neurons, and on neurons with peripheral cell bodies, and to probable differences in the intracellular chloride content of neurons having peripheral or central cell bodies, and thus of different embryological origin. A presynaptic depolarizing inhibitory process mediated by GABA appears to be confined to the terminals of primary afferent fibres in the mammalian central nervous system.  相似文献

Extracellular investigations on the activity of 269 caudate neurons during electrical stimulation of the midbrain reticular formation were carried out during chronic experiments on cats. Stimuli of different sensory modalities were used: auditory, mechanical, and visual. A response was observed to both reticular and peripheral stimulation in single neurons. The former produced an orthodromic response in 53% of caudate neurons, notable for its high probability of occurrence. A total of 23% of caudal neurons responded to this type of stimulation and application of stimuli of a single modality, while 14% responded polymodally. An excitatory response pattern prevailed during all types of stimulation. By applying twin stimuli to 100 caudate neurons, a capacity for interaction between reticular and acoustic inputs was discovered. Interaction was similarly observed in neurons which had reacted neither to separate application of both stimuli nor to either of the stimuli in isolation.A. A.

Endogenous serotonin (5-HT) and noradrenaline (NA) release by somatosensory afferent inputs was investigated at the level of the spinal cord using in vivo microdialysis technique combined with high performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection (HPLC-ECD). Selective stimulation of large myelinated Aβ afferent fibers significantly increased 5-HT release to 151.1 ±10.1% of the control, but did not affect NA release. However, selective stimulation of small myelinated Aδ fibers released NA rather than 5-HT. The NA level enhanced to 128.8±6.4% of the control after Aδ fibers were stimulated with the intensity of 6 times threshold. Stimulation of unmyelinated C fibers unavoidably excited the Aβ and Aδ afferent fibers, causing both 5-HT and NA release from the spinal cord. The results suggest that both innocuous and noxious information may activate serotonergic descending pathways. The noradrenergic descending pathways are only triggered by noxious inputs transmitted by small afferent fibers.  相似文献

  • 1.1.|The human spinal cord protein (HSCP) is immunochemically closely related to the anti-encephalitogenic bovine spinal cord protein (BSCP) and immunoreactive HSCP is similarly distributed in brain, spinal cord and spinal nerve roots (a peripheral nervous tissue) in the proportions of 1 : 6 : 60. HSCP and protein immunochemically identical to HSCP (HSCP-PN), were purified from frozen spinal cords and frozen peripheral nervous tissue, respectively, by extraction with 0.15 M sodium chloride, carboxy-methyl cellulose (CM-cellulose) chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-50.
  • 2.2.|Purified HSCP and HSCP-PN formed one band in sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoretograms and had estimated molecular sizes of 13 700 and 14 700, respectively. The amino acid compositions were similar except that HSCP had 16% glutamic acid and lacked half cystine while HSCP-PN contained 11.9% of glutamic acid and 1.0% of half cystine.
  • 3.3.|Immunodiffusion analyses with anti-HSCP or anti-BSCP sera revealed that extracts of spinal cord and spinal nerves and purified HSCP and HSCP-PN are composed of immunogenically distinct major and minor forms. The major forms and the minor forms of HSCP and HSCP-PN are identical to each other but share different antigenic amino acid sequences with BSCP. Immunoelectrophoretic profiles of spinal cord and spinal nerve extracts indicated that the major and minor HSCP antigens also existed in two different molecular forms having the electrophoretic mobilities of a β- or a γ-serum globulin. The four different molecular forms were present in purified HSCP-PN, but only the forms with γ-electrophoretic mobility were present in purified HSCP.
