Ultra-structure of Trigeminal Ganglion in Human
نویسنده
چکیده
The trigeminal ganglion (TrG) is built of pseudounipolar neurons, their fibers and satellite cells. Neurons that are different in size have been visualized using electronmicroscopic method. It is particularly interesting that stored pigments are a result of age alterations. Pseudounipolar neurons in (TrG) are sensory cells and they receive nerve impulses from sensory nerve terminals. In conclusion, (TrG) is a related station that receives information, arranges it and transmits the signal to the central nervous system (CNS).

Background and purpose: The Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) is a potent dilator of cerebral vessels and that now thought to play a central role in the underlying pathophysiology of migraine. The purpose of present study, therefore, was to investigate effects of endurance, resistance, and strength training on CGRP content in Wistar rat’ trigeminal nerve. Materials and methods: A number o...
متن کاملAn ultrastructural study of the myelination of the trigeminal ganglion in human foetuses aged 10 to 23 weeks.
An ultrastructural study was performed on trigeminal ganglia removed from foetuses aged 10 to 23 weeks. The first turns of lemmocyte processes around the axons were observed in the trigeminal ganglion in the 12th week of development. During the period between the 15th and the 18th weeks the myelin sheath increases in thickness and becomes a compact, laminated structure. In foetuses of 23 weeks ...
متن کاملSpecific and somatotopic functional magnetic resonance imaging activation in the trigeminal ganglion by brush and noxious heat.
We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to assess activation in the trigeminal ganglion during innocuous mechanical (brush) and noxious thermal (46 degrees C) stimulation of the face within the receptive fields of each of the three divisions of the trigeminal nerve in healthy volunteers. For both stimulus types, we observed signal changes only in the ipsilateral ganglion, and activ...
متن کاملTrigeminal ganglion axons are repelled by their presumptive targets.
Previous work suggested that in mouse, presumptive targets of the trigeminal ganglion, rather than intermediate structures, attract pioneer axons from the time their growth cones exit the ganglion (Lumsden and Davies, 1986). In rat we find that some presumptive targets repel trigeminal axons. The repellant activity is concentrated in the anterior and ventral epithelium of the mandibular arch at...
متن کاملPattern of intracranial and extracranial projections of trigeminal ganglion cells.
The trigeminal sensory innervation of the major cerebral vessels is thought to carry the nociceptive information during a migraine headache, and this pain is usually referred to the forehead area. Using retrograde tracing techniques, we have described the distribution of sensory trigeminal cells that innervate the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and the forehead. Nearest-neighbor analysis of the o...
