Axons Giving Rise to the Palisade Endings of Feline Extraocular Muscles Display Motor Features [PDF]
, 2013 Palisade endings are nerve specializations found in the extraocular muscles (EOMs) of mammals, including primates. They have long been postulated to be proprioceptors. It was recently demonstrated that palisade endings are cholinergic and that in monkeys

Localization of axonally transported 125I-wheat germ agglutinin beneath the plasma membrane of chick retinal ganglion cells. [PDF]
, 1983 The distribution of 125I-wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) transported by axons of chick retinal ganglion cells to layer d of the optic tectum was studied by electron microscopic autoradiography.

Correlated disorder in myelinated axons orientational geometry and structure
, 2017 While the ultrastructure of the myelin has been considered to be a quasi-crystalline stable system, nowadays its multiscale complex dynamics appears to play a key role for its functionality, degeneration and repair processes following neurological ...

Global Connectivity and Function of Descending Spinal Input Revealed by 3D Microscopy and Retrograde Transduction [PDF]
, 2018 The brain communicates with the spinal cord through numerous axon tracts that arise from discrete nuclei, transmit distinct functions, and often collateralize to facilitate the coordination of descending commands.
