    Notes: Summary Electron microscopical studies of the thalamic AV-AM nuclei substantiated the presence of two main types of neurons, i.e. principal (or relay) cells and Golgi type II interneurons. Characteristic synaptic islands are found in abundance in the AV-AM. Four different types of synaptic terminals have been identified in these islands: RL-boutons = large axonal terminals with round synaptic vesicles; RS-boutons = small axonal terminals with round synaptic vesicles; F1-boutons = small axonal profiles containing flattened synaptic vesicles, and F2-profiles interpreted as presynaptic dendrite appendages, bearing pleomorphic vesicles, both belonging to the Golgi type II interneurons. — The synaptic relations were studied in normal preparations and after lesions in the mamillary body, limbic cortex and hippocampus. The specific afferents (RL-boutons) — originating from the medial mamillary nucleus — are presynaptic to both relay cell dendrites and “presynaptic” dendrite profiles of Golgi type II interneurons, which in turn are presynaptic to the same relay dendrites (synaptic triads). RS-boutons originate mainly from limbic cortex and hippocampus.

    Notes: Summary A quantitative analysis was carried out on the thalamic ventrobasal (VB) complex of the cat. The following numerical and metrical parameters of the neuronal elements (cells and fibers) were determined: 1. Volume of nucleus: 27.38 mm3 2. Total number of neurons: 243,000 3. Total number of fibers of medial lemniscus: 26,000 4. Volume of arborization space of one lemniscal fiber: 2.26×106 μm3. Numerical data of relay neurons and lemniscal fibers and their relations as basic factors in the estimation of the degree of divergence and convergence of lemniscal input were calculated and compared. It was found that the probable degree of convergence is four-fold (1–4) and of divergence 27-fold (1–27) with regard to the relationship of fibers and cells in the VB. The quantitative data obtained in the VB and our considerations on convergence and divergence were compared with analogous values obtained for the lateral geniculate body LGB. The differences between the two sensory relay nuclei reflect differences in their modes of impulse transmission.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the ventrobasal complex (VB) of the cat thalamus was investigated in order to compare the data with those obtained in other thalamic nuclei. New data are described regarding the identification of Golgi II type neurons and several forms of axo-somatic synapses. By means of a quantitative analysis the number of different profiles, distribution of interprofile contacts, synaptic densities and degree of synaptic input of the two main cell-types were defined. The quantitative data obtained in the VB complex were compared with values for the lateral geniculate body (CGL), nucleus anterior ventralis (AV-non-sensory relay thalamic nucleus) and nucleus lateralis posterior-pulvinar complex (LP-PU-associative thalamic nucleus). The quantitative data reveal that: 1. The occurrence of RL terminals is equal in the two relay nuclei (VB and AV) and three-fold higher than in the LP-PU. 2. The percentage ratio of specific terminals (RL) in the total surface area in the relay nuclei is three-fold higher than in the LP-PU. 3. The RL→D synapses are twice as numerous in the relay nuclei as in the associative nucleus. 4. The density of synaptic RS profiles in VB is half of that found in LP-Pu. 5. In the thalamic relay nuclei the number of synaptic contacts on Golgi II type neurons is one-third of the synaptic supply of relay neurons; in the LP-Pu the amount of synaptic contacts on Golgi II type neuron approaches the synaptic supply of projective neurons.

    Notes: Summary The Golgi architecture of the Fascia dentata and hippocampus is described in the cat. The main cell types are like those found in other species. The initial collaterals of granule cell axons were demonstrated and are commented on. The interneurons proved to be of several types and subtypes not observed in lower species. The intrinsic fibers and few of the afferents — both in the dentate fascia and in the hippocampus — are discussed.

    Notes: Summary The characteristic dendritic arborization of different cell types, the axon arborization of Golgi type II neurons, and the terminal parts of the specific and non-specific afferents in the nucleus anterior ventralis and medialis were observed, using the Golgi-Kopsch perfusion method. The cell types and their special characteristics, such as the dendritic tree, dendritic processes and axon-arborization patterns are similar to those described in the other specific nuclei of the thalamus. The significance of Golgi type II/a cells and their synaptic relations are discussed from the point of view of inhibitory mechanisms postulated in the thalamic relay nuclei. The synaptic articulations of specific (Vicq d'Azyr) and non-specific afferents with the different cell types have been studied.

    A combined horseradish peroxidase and Golgi study on the afferent connections of the ventrobasal complex of the thalamus in the cat (1979)

    Notes: Summary Afferent connections to the ventrobasal complex (VB) of the thalamus were studied by means of retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and by the Golgi-method. After HRP-injection into the VB, peroxidase-positive cells were observed contralaterally in the dorsal column nuclei (DCN), in the trigeminal nuclei and in the lateral cervical nucleus (LCN), and ipsilaterally in the somatosensory I (SI) and II (SII) cortical areas. Labeled cells of different shape and size were compared with neurons impregnated by the Golgi-technique. On the basis of HRP-labeling it is concluded that cells projecting to the VB are different in size and shape even within one region and that they correspond to the relay or efferent neurons observed in the Golgimaterial.

    Notes: Summary The cells of origin of afferent and efferent pathways of the lateral forebrain bundle were studied with the aid of the cobalt-filling technique. Ascending afferents originated from the lateral thalamic nucleus, central thalamic nucleus, posterior tuberculum and the cerebellar nucleus. They terminated in the anterior entopeduncular nucleus, amygdala and the striatum. Telencephalic projection neurons, which are related to the lateral forebrain bundle, were located mainly in the ventral striatum and the anterior entopeduncular nucleus, but were not so numerous in the dorsal striatum. Irrespective of their location, most of the neurons projecting axons into the lateral forebrain bundle had piriform or pyramidal perikarya. Long apical dendrites usually arborized in a narrow space, whereas widely arborizing secondary dendrites originated from short dendritic trunks. The other neurons that contributed to the lateral forebrain bundle were fusiform or multipolar cells. Striatal efferents terminated in the pretectal area and in the anterodorsal, anteroventral and posteroventral tegmental nuclei.

    Notes: Summary Neurons displaying a thalamo-cortical projection were marked by means of the retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), and the labeled elements were compared with neurons impregnated by the Golgi technique. Injections of HRP into the posterior area of the limbic cortex resulted in its uptake by various anterior thalamic nuclei, especially the anteroventral nucleus. HRP-positive cells are characterized by their position, dendritic orientation, and the shape and size of their somata. On the basis of the combined HRP- and Golgi-analysis three different types of thalamo-cortical relay neurons can be distinguished.
