[Morphological changes in the nervous system in lead poisoning. I. Experimentally induced lead neuropathy]. 1990

A Ivanova, and S Nachev

A morphological study on experimental model of lead (Pb) neuropathy (by the method of Pentschev, A., 1966) was described. Dense inclusions in Schwann's cells and satellite cells of the sensory ganglia were found by an electron microscope in the examined peripheral nerves (n. ischiadicus) and sensory ganglia (g. lumbale and g. trigeminale--Gasseri). These finding supported direct toxic action of Pb on these structures and proved their participation in the pathogenesis of developing neuropathy.

D005727	Ganglia, Spinal	Sensory ganglia located on the dorsal spinal roots within the vertebral column. The spinal ganglion cells are pseudounipolar. The single primary branch bifurcates sending a peripheral process to carry sensory information from the periphery and a central branch which relays that information to the spinal cord or brain.

D006224	Cricetinae	A subfamily in the family MURIDAE, comprising the hamsters. Four of the more common genera are Cricetus, CRICETULUS; MESOCRICETUS; and PHODOPUS.	Cricetus,Hamsters,Hamster
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012584	Sciatic Nerve	A nerve which originates in the lumbar and sacral spinal cord (L4 to S3) and supplies motor and sensory innervation to the lower extremity. The sciatic nerve, which is the main continuation of the sacral plexus, is the largest nerve in the body. It has two major branches, the TIBIAL NERVE and the PERONEAL NERVE.

D012668	Trigeminal Ganglion	The semilunar-shaped ganglion containing the cells of origin of most of the sensory fibers of the trigeminal nerve. It is situated within the dural cleft on the cerebral surface of the petrous portion of the temporal bone and gives off the ophthalmic, maxillary, and part of the mandibular nerves.
