Antidromic field potentials recorded from cell groups of S2 spinal cord segment with axons in the opposite Th13 dorsolateral funiculus in the cat.
Location of cell groups within gray matter of S2 spinal cord segment, whose axons are running in the opposite Th13 dorsolateral funiculus, were studied by means of antidromic field potentials recorded in chloralose anaesthetized cats. The cell bodies are forming six separate groups occupying medial laminae II and III, medial laminae IV and V, medial lamina VII, medial lamina VIII, lateral laminae V and VI and lateral laminae VIII and IX. Properties of main components in antidromic field potentials recorded in each of areas have been described. The presumable termination sites of axons of investigated cellular groups are considered.
