This paper reviews light-and electron microscopic, histochemical and physiological
evidence which demonstrate that peripheral nerve injury in mammals is followed by …

Mammalian primary sensory neurones display profound anatomical and chemical changes
in response to injury of their peripheral processes. Peripheral nerve damage results in …

The effects of sciatic nerve resection on lumbar dorsal root ganglion cells and their central
branches have been studied in the adult rat. A quantitative analysis of the lumbar dorsal root …

Peripheral neuropathy can be associated with a variety of symptoms, including spontaneous
unpleasant sensations and pain, as well as increased sensitivity to sensory stimuli. A …

1. Extracellular single-unit recordings have been made from 295 dorsal horn neurons in the
lumbar enlargement of rat spinal cord; 191 neurons in 20 rats with an experimental …

The effect of sciatic nerve transection on its centrally located terminals in the spinal cord was
analyzed by electron microscopy in adult rhesus monkeys one and three months following …

The accumulation of non‐vascular, non‐neuronal cells (designated herein as reactive cells)
in association with perikarya of axotomized motor neurons has been described by many …

Previous studies in this laboratory indicate that diffusible factors from distal stumps of
transected peripheral nerves exert a neurotropic effect on regenerating nerve fibers in vivo …

A sample of 302 neurons in rat hindlimb granular cortex was studied between 2 and 3
weeks after transection and ligation of the sciatic nerve. These neurons were compared to a …

Although it has been known for more than half a century that certain groups of neurons may
atrophy, or degenerate, following the death of the cells upon which they project or after the …
