Abstract
As mentioned in Sect 10.2, mitotic satellite cells (Pannese 1960, 1969; Krajčí 1975; see also Fig. 27A-D) and satellite cells labeled with tritiated thymidine (Skoglund 1967) have been consistently observed in sensory ganglia during body growth. The more extensively studied among adult animals have been the sensory ganglia of rodents; in the spinal ganglia of rat, rare mitotic satellite cells (Fig. 27E) have been observed by Pannese (1960) and Lieberman (1976), but not by Humbertson et al. (1969). Moreover, in the spinal ganglia of rat (Friede and Johnstone 1967) and mouse (Smith and Adrian 1972, Kraus-Ruppert et al. 1975), a small but consistent proportion of satellite cells labeled with tritiated thymidine has been found.
