This anatomical investigation was prompted by the incomplete knowledge of the myotopic organization of the dorsal subdivison of the hypoglossal nucleus. Intrinsic muscle motoneurons were not segregated and labeled previously with regard to the lateral division of the hypoglossal nerve. Also, motoneu

Male rat motoneurons innervating the pubococcygeus muscle were located in the ventral nucleus of lamina IX at the sixth lumbar (L6) and first sacral (S1) spinal cord segments. Retrograde labeling with horseradish peroxidase-wheat germ agglutinin was transported up to second-order dendrites and revea
Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity was measured in extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscles during postnatal development in the rat. At 1 and 2 weeks of age, similar low levels were found in both muscles. After 2 weeks, activity increased significantly only in EDL. Adult NOS activity was
