## Abstract The cortical representation of the trunk zone in the human first somatosensory area was studied with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to establish whether the cutaneous regions close to the midline are represented in this area of both hemispheres. Cortical activation foci ev

β¦ Synopsis
In previous papers I communicated some facts concerning the laws which determine the number of sensory neurons in the trunk of vertebrates. To this group of researches we may add recent observations of Coghill ('36) on Amblystoma. This author has evidently not seen our notes published in various European periodicals. As our results complete

Neuron addition is one means whereby the nervous system can compensate for increased body size. Neurons can be added either by mitosis of stem cells or by late differentiation of committed precursors. Previously, the doubling of hind limb dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in postmetamorphic bullfro
## Abstract Mitochondria are widely distributed via regulated transport in neurons, but their sites of biogenesis remain uncertain. Most mitochondrial proteins are encoded in the nuclear genome, and evidence has suggested that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication occurs mainly or entirely in the c
Loss of neurons has been considered to be a prime cause of nervous disturbances that occur with advancing age. However, the notion of a constitutive aging-related loss of neurons has been challenged recently in several studies that used up-to-date methods for counting neurons. In this study, we have
## Abstract In our previous studies, a large number of substance P (SP)βimmunoreactive (IR) nerve fibers were detected in the rat tongue and their number increased after inflammation, suggesting that these fibers might be involved in the axon reflex. Therefore, in this study, we have examined the d
The effect of lumbar spinal nerve (SN) transection on estimates of neuron number was investigated in the dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) of juvenile bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana). SN8 and SN10 were transected on one side, and SN9 was left intact. Two weeks after nerve injury, estimates of neuron number in
