[Myonic makeup of the muscles innervated by the vagus nerve].
Histochemical investigation on succinic dehydrogenase activity and morphometric studies have demonstrated certain differences in the dog sublingual group of muscles. The thyreohyoid and sternohyoid muscles innervated by spinal nerves possess three types of myons differing in succinic dehydrogenase activity and in the area of transversal section. The cricothyreoid muscle and the superior pharyngeal constrictor obtaining their motor innervation from the vagus nerve are composed of unitypical muscular fibres with nearly the same areas of transversal section and high enzymic activity. The differences noted should be explained by different sources of motor innervation.
