REVIEW ARTICLE THE DORSALHORN OF THE SPINAL CORD
in addition it also terminates in lamina VII in the ventral horn. Thi:-' 201 Downloaded from Exp Physiol (ep.physoc.org) by guest on February 1, 2012

REMEMBER: neuromuscular transmission defects result in decremental CMAP responses with repetitive nerve stimulation. REMEMBER: primary muscle diseases result in low CMAP amplitudes, similar to the findings in ventral horn and axis cylinder lesions.

These viruses cause an acute inflammatory infection that affects the lower motor neurons of the ventral horn cells or of the cranial nerve nuclei.

THE SPINAL CORD
Most of these collaterals terminate on interneurons, but some reach as far as the ventral horn motorneurons. Pathways from the face are carried through the lemniscus trigeminalis.
Spinal cord Physiology
Motoneuron cell bodies are in the ventral horns (the bottom arms of the "H"), motoneurons for axial muscles are in the medial ventral horn, and motoneurons for distal muscles are in the lateral ventral horn.
Organization of motor pools supplying the cervical ...
Dual innervation of Pseudemys cervical musculature A basic rule of spinal cord ventral horn organization states that motor neurons are arranged in a musculotopic pattern (cf. review in Romanes, '64; Kuypers, '81); i.e., cells supplying each muscle form a single cluster, and the posi-tion of that cluster ...
Spinal Cord Organization
Cell bodies of efferent neurons are located in ventral horn (somatic efferents) or in intermediate substance (visceral efferents). • somatic efferent (SE) neurons: alpha motor neurons— innervate ordinary skeletal muscle fibers (motor units); gamma motor neurons—innervate intrafusal muscle fibers ...
