  • Title: Quantitative aspects in the analysis of the synaptic architecture of thalamic sensory relay nuclei.
    Author: Tömböl T, Madarász M, Martos J.
    Journal: Acta Biol Hung; 1983; 34(2-3):275-301. PubMed ID: 6198830.
    Abstract:
    Special orientations of dendritic trees of projective (relay) neurons were observed in the thalamic nuclei; and it was found to be different in the various nuclei. It can be explained by the size, course, site of the fibre bundles which enter and/or transgress the nuclei. The orientation of dendritic tree and the size of the branching area of dendrites (specific active dendritic space) were analysed by computer. The quantitative data of neuronal elements in some thalamic nuclei gave the opportunity to consider the possible degree of divergence and convergence of sensory fibres regarding their connections with the projective neurons.
