Abstract

Sensory Rohon‐Beard cells of Rana pipiens embryos were examined for dependency on the peripheral innervation. Flank ectoderm was surgically removed, the area being maintained skinless by lateral parabiosis. The Rohon‐Beard cells in each side of the spinal cord were counted at a later developmental stage; the number was always less on the side with the reduced skin area. Intact animals, operated controls, and tails of the parabiotic pairs did not show such a bias in cell distribution. Deprivation of the neurotrophic periphery is postulated as the cause of the premature disappearance of the Rohon‐Beard cells; it is further suggested that the disappearance of these cells during normal development might be effected through the peripheral innervation.

Rohon-Beard cells are large, mechanosensory neurons located in the dorsal spinal cord of anamniote vertebrates. In most species studied to date, these cells die during development. We followed labeled Rohon-Beard cells in living zebrafish embryos and found that they degenerate slowly, over many days

Rohon-Beard (R-B) neurons of the medulla oblongata and spinal cord of anurans originate during gastrulation, become distinguishable just after closure of the neural tube, and are present in maximum numbers at the end of the embryonic period, just before feeding begins. Cell deaths are first seen in
