Abstract
Golgi preparations reveal the existence of two classes of nerve cells in the human dentate nucleus. Relatively large projection cells (P) predominate. Small local circuit neurons (I) are scattered throughout the nuclear gray. By means of the newly developed de-impregnation technique the pattern of lipofuscin pigmentation of both cell types can be studied (Fig. 1).
