[Presynaptic dendrites and dendro-dendritic synapses in the superior tubercles of the rat quadrigeminum].
The types of dendro-dendritic synapses and their participation in the synaptic, organization of superficial layers of the quadrigeminum superior tubercles were studied electron microscopically. In addition to simple forms of dendro-dentritic synapses the reciprocal dendro-dendritic synapses were revealed. Presynaptic dendrites formed the synaptic fields and glomerules of the superficial grey layer. The terminals of optical, cortical fibres from the visual cortex and other types of terminals terminated on presynaptic dendrites.
