Microchemical procedures were employed for the quantitative assay of acetylcholinesterase ( AChE) and choline acetyltransferase (ChAc) activity in the brachial spinal cord of chick embryos from 3.5 to 21 days' incubation. The activity of AChE increased nearly 10-fold during the 60-hour period from s

The developing spinal cord at the cervical and thoracic levels in 14 human embryos ranging from Carnegie stages 14 to 20 were examined with the electron microscope. The floor plate-forming cells contained numerous cytoplasmic organelles, such as rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi apparatus, and
## Abstract Damage to the nervous system often results in neuropathic pain. Current treatment for this disabling state is unsuccessful due to our incomplete understanding of cellular mechanisms causing this pain. Although glial cells were largely ignored in most textbooks of pain, accumulating evid
During development, spinal cord cells of the frog Xenopus laevis undergo a reduction in size. This phenomenon occurs during neural tube formation and continues at least until the start of metamorphosis. The number and shape of spinal cord cells also changes, but not always in synchrony with the redu
