[Cytoarchitecture and ultrastructure of the mesencephalon trigeminal nucleus of the domestic chicken].
Position, form, dimensions and fine structure of the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus of the domestic chicken are described. It consists of round to oval large and rare medium sized pseudo-unipolar neurons. The Nissl bodies are scattered throughout the perikaryon of both cell types in a dust like way. Electronmicroscopically the neurons are characterized by numerous neurofilaments, lysosomes and mitochondria. The cell surface shows a moderate distribution of synapses, and few somatic spines and invaginations of the plasmalemma.
