Abstract

Horseradish peroxidase was used as a retrograde marker to identify the cell bodies of cat thoracic α- and γ-motoneurons 8 days following axotomy. A quantitative ultrastructural comparison revealed changes in Nissl bodies, the Golgi apparatus, mitochondria and lysosomes for axotomised α-motoneurons, while axotomised γ-motoneurons only showed changes in Nissl bodies and nuclear pores.
