Summary
-
1.
Peculiar, spindle-shaped lamellar structures were observed in the nuclei of thoracic sympathetic ganglion cells of a dog, and their possible origins were discussed.
-
2.
In the same material, small, concentric, spherical bodies were also observed in the nuclei of the various cells constituting the sympathetic ganglia.
