Glycogen is present in the brain, where it has been found mainly in glial cells but not in
neurons. Therefore, all physiologic roles of brain glycogen have been attributed exclusively …

The development of synapses in cultured nervous tissue was studied by explanting cross
sections of fetal rat spinal cord prior to first synapse formation. Periodic electron microscopic …

When the topic of glycogen metabolism in astrocytes, or more generally in the brain, is
approached, a number of questions and comments are fre-quently raised. Is there any …

The autonomic nerve plexus of the ciliary muscle was examined with the electron
microscope in normal rhesus monkeys of different ages. In the anterior region of the muscle …

Progressive changes in the postnatal incidence, distribution and duration of glycogen in
neurons of the pons, medulla and spinal cord were studied by light and electron microscopy …

The number of glycogen particles contained in synaptic boutons and the relative bouton
volume occupied by mitochondrial profiles have been determined for the spinal motor …

Explants of newborn mouse cerebellum, maintained for 14–70 days in organotypic culture,
were processed for electron microscopy. The fine structural features of Purkinje cells …

Unusual membrane-particle complexes, occasionally observed within the
neuronalperikaryon in spinal ganglia of the guinea pig and rabbit, are described. Each …

The early development of the principal sensory nucleus of the trigeminal nerve (PSN) was
examined to determine whether spatiotemporal patterns of synaptogenesis coincide with …

A new principle of fixation was developed for the histochemical demonstration of neuronal
glycogen in the rabbit because of the poor results obtained after routine perfusion with …
