Dentritic range of the neurons of the intermediate gray at the levels of the first and second lumbar segments of the spinal cord in the cat. 3. The range of dendrites of the lateral region neurons.
The first and second lumbar segments of the spinal cord in kittens and mature cats were examined with Golgi method. It was found that the dendrites of large and medium neurons situated in the lateral region of the intermediate gray penetrated lamina V dorsally, and lamina VIII and motor nuclei ventrally. Laterally these dendrites reached the lateral horns and even the lateral funicles. Paracentrally they ran along the whole intermediate gray of the cord, entered the thoracic nucleus, and even the white commisure.
