Morphological evaluation of the human pyramidal tract: gender and age differences.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using a preparation method composed of secondary chromic acid fixation, nitrocellulose embedding and Luxol fast blue-PAS-hematoxylin stain (a discriminative staining method) for the purpose of axonal discrimination, we examined 43 human spinal cords (31 males and 12 females) at the C5 level to find the differences due to gender and aging in axons of the lateral corticospinal tract. These results can be of great help in understanding the motor functions in relation to gender differences and the aging process.
