## Abstract Experiments were performed to test whether motoneurons in the plantaris and medial gastrocnemius muscles of the cat are arranged in the spinal cord according to their sizes. It was found that motoneurons are randomly distributed with respect to size in their motor nuclei. Evidence is al
In the spinal cord of anaesthetized cats, motoneurones of m-gastrocnemius medialis were stimulated to repetitive firing by very long-lasting steady currents injected through an intracellular microelectrode (maximum duration 4 min). In such discharges, a gradual decline in impulse frequency was found
The effect of morphine on the activity in ventrolateral tract axons was studied in intercollicularly decerebrate cats with and without spinal section. Activity was elicited by electrical stimulation of Adelta- and C-fibres in the sural nerves. In spinal animals, morphine injected intravenously in a
When administered microelectrophoretically, GABA and the GABA-mimetic piperidine-4-sulphonic acid (P4S) appear to have no direct hyperpolarizing or depolarizing effect on the terminations of motor axon collaterals excited electrically in the ventral horn of the lumbar spinal cord of the cat. This la
