Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Abstract

We studied projections of various organs on afferent neurons of vagal caudal ganglia in mature albino rats. The morphometric parameters of labeled neurocytes were determined using computer-assisted image analysis system. It is established that somato- and viscerosensory neurocytes of vagal caudal ganglia in albino rats are characterized by specific shape and morphometric parameters.
