Descending serotonergic fibers in the dorsolateral and ventral funiculi of cat spinal cord. 1985

J L Hylden, and M A Ruda, and H Hayashi, and R Dubner

Although there is much evidence for the presence of serotonergic fibers in the spinal gray matter, there is little evidence for the location of descending serotonergic fiber tracts in the spinal white matter. Using a highly sensitive immunocytochemical technique, we localized serotonin-immunoreactive axons throughout the white and gray matter of the spinal cord. Prominent concentrations of serotonergic axons were found in the dorsolateral and ventral funiculi. It is likely that these two descending fiber tracts contribute serotonergic input to the dorsal and ventral horns, respectively.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D001369 Axons Nerve fibers that are capable of rapidly conducting impulses away from the neuron cell body. Axon
D012701 Serotonin A biochemical messenger and regulator, synthesized from the essential amino acid L-TRYPTOPHAN. In humans it is found primarily in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood platelets. Serotonin mediates several important physiological functions including neurotransmission, gastrointestinal motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Multiple receptor families (RECEPTORS, SEROTONIN) explain the broad physiological actions and distribution of this biochemical mediator. 5-HT,5-Hydroxytryptamine,3-(2-Aminoethyl)-1H-indol-5-ol,Enteramine,Hippophaine,Hydroxytryptamine,5 Hydroxytryptamine
