## Abstract The sensory root entry zone demarcates the transition from the peripheral nervous system (PNS) to the central nervous system (CNS). In this study, we describe the organization of nodes of Ranvier at the trigeminal sensory and dorsal root entry zones of the rat. Caspr immunoreactivity (I
Sensory axons interrupted in the dorsal roots of adult mammals are normally unable to regenerate into the spinal cord. We have investigated whether the introduction of a neurotrophin gene into the spinal cord might offer an approach to otherwise intractable spinal root injuries. The dorsal roots of
We have quantified the number and size of myelinated fibers of the ventral and dorsal roots of selected segments that innervate the forelimbs (C8) and hindlimbs (L4) in the developing opossum, Monodelphis domestica. The gray opossum was chosen because it is born very immature and its somatomotor dev
