thin branches laterally in the dorsal protocerebrum,

shorter branches along the cell neurites in the dorsal part

of the median bundle and extensive arborizations in the

tritocerebrum (Enell et al., 2010). The two branches

follow the aorta and innervate the corpus cardiacum in the

ring gland and the hypocerebral ganglion, near the cardiac

valve of the midgut. One of the branches follows the stalk

of the crop, whilst the other bifurcates, with each of these

branches extending along each side of the midgut (Cao

beaded neuron

Neuron located within the core of the nucleus (BSTov)

that is termed a beaded neuron (BN) because of its

rounded soma and numerous spherules along both

dendrites and axon (Fig. 11). The soma measures from

12 to 17 micrometers in its widest axis and is nearly

spherical, having a rather smooth profile. The soma issues

two or three short primary dendrites, which usually run

horizontally. After a short distance (10 to 40

micrometers), these proximal branches give rise to sets of

two to five long, secondary dendrites. The occurrence of

third to order dendrites is variable, as is their length (20 to

150 micrometers). A defining characteristic of BN

dendrites is the presence of distinct varicosities that are

virtually devoid of dendritic spines. The BN axon and its

collaterals also exhibit a series of small spherules (0.3-0.5

um) united by thin axonal bridges (Lariva-Sahd, 2006, as

reported in http://brancusi.usc.edu/bkms).

innervates several outer hair cells, each inner hair cell

Cochlea outer hair

cell

In mammals, the outer hair cells are arranged in three

rows that are further removed from the modiolus than the

single row of inner hair cells. Although receiving only ~5%

of the innervating auditory nerve dendrites, the motile

properties of the outer hair cells actively contribute to the

sensitivity and frequency selectivity of the cochlea. The

process of somatic electromotility, due to the presence of

the motor protein, prestin, is essential for normal cochlear

function. Outer hair cell function is also directly influenced

by efferent input from the medial superior olivary

complex. (MSH)

It is not established that there are "pure" local interneurons

However, even after a large injection of retrograde tracer

into the medial geniculate body (MGB), a main target of

lack dense excitatory axosomatic terminals, were not

labeled with the tracer. On the other hand, large

their dendrite parallel to isofrequency laminae (Oliver,

1984), majority of glutamatergic neurons are likely to be

disc-shaped. Stellate neurons, which are less common

and extend dendrite perpendicular to isofrequency

Colliculus superior

deep vertical

fusiform cell

Deep vertical fusiform cells have cell bodies about 20

micrometers wide and their dendrites extend from the

upper margin of the zone of vertical cells to the depth of

the zone of optic fibers perhaps even deeper. The

superficial and deep fields are usually notably different in

the manner in which the dendrites branch and spread, the

over to all size of the fields, the shapes of the fields, the

type and density of spines, and the caliber of the

dendrites.

fusiform cell

The intermediate vertical fusiform cells have cell bodies 12

to 18 micrometers in diameter in the upper portion of the

zone of vertical cells and their dendritic fields extend from

the collicular surface to the deep margin of the zone of

vertical cells (fig. 12b, 13). Intermediate vertical fusiform

cells most often have a superficial field with relatively

fewer spines, straighter, more even caliber dendrites that

branch less often but more equally than those in the deep

field of the same cell (figs. 12b, 13).

inverted pyramidal

cell

The inverted pyramidal cell is similar to the pyramidal cell

except that the cell body lies within the deep portion of

the zone of horizontal cells. The superficial field is a

circumsomatic field and the deep field is elongated to

reach into the deeper portion of the zone of vertical cells.

The cell body is about the size of an intermediate vertical

fusiform cell soma. The axon is similar, but more apt to

have collaterals to the superficial zones. Inverted

pyramidal cells fall within the definition of the narrow field

vertical cells.

piriform cell

The piriform cells have ovoid or cup shaped cell bodies,

10 to 15 micrometers in diameter, located within a narrow

lamina along the deep margin of the zone of horizontal

cells. The restriction of the piriform cell somata to the

boundary between the zone of horizontal cells and the

zone of vertical cells is remarkably accurate and

consistent. The piriform cells give rise to 2 to 5 dendrites

from the superficial surface, which course through the

zone of horizontal cells to terminate just beneath the

piriform cell

stratum opticum



zone of horizontal cells to terminate just beneath the

surface. As the ascending dendrites approach the surface

they branch more frequently, almost always by

equipartition, to form a complicated intermingling bouquet

of slowly tapering dendrites, 150 to 350 micrometers in

width and slightly less than 200 micrometers in depth. The

axon most frequently takes its origin from the base of the

soma, but sometimes it arises from one of the low order

dendrites. From its origin the axon runs immediately down

through the zone of vertical cells, occasionally with

collaterals which may arborize within the superficial

laminae. The axon is thin and smooth, occasionally with en

passant varicosities.

Colliculus superior

pyramidal cell

Pyramidal cells are similar to vertical fusiform cells in most

respects. They have a vertically elongated cell body,

about 15 micrometers in transverse diameter, in the

deeper half of the zone of vertical cells. The dendritic field

is narrow and cylindrical, 100 to 250 micrometer in

diameter, and extends from the upper margin of the zone

of horizontal cells to the lower margin of the zone of

vertical cells, about 500 micrometers. Rather than having

superficial and deep fields, the pyramidal cell has the deep

field reduced to a circumsomatic field, or a diminuitive

basal field, and the superficial field is relatively elongated

to accord with the deeper cell body. Pyramidal cells are

usually multipolar, with one or two thick apical dendrites,

which branch several times on the way to the surface,

particularly in the upper portion of the zone of horizontal

cells, and several smaller dendrites which form a small

field about the cell body. It is of interest that smooth

pyramidal cells tend to have two primary dendrites, like

smooth vertical fusiform cells. The axon takes its origin

from the soma or a low order dendrite and runs down into

the deep zones. It is smooth and thin, about like that of

the vertical fusiform cells.

Colliculus superior

stellate neuron

The third major category of cells in the superior colliculus

is the stellate cell. The cells are defined by the lack of

overall orientation to the dendritic fields which extend

symmetrically from the cell body. Stellate cells are

multipolar with dendrites arising from any portion of the

cell body. The dendrites may range anywhere from

gnarled to radiate with the gnarled spiny cells most

stellate neuron Superior colliculus



gnarled to radiate with the gnarled spiny cells most

frequent in the zone of horizontal cells and the smooth

radiate cells increasingly more frequent in the deeper

zones until they are almost the only cell type in the zones

below the stratum opticum. The dimensions of the cell

bodies and dendritic fields are comparable to those of

other cells in the same zone and the dendritic field is

generally contained within the same zone as the cell body.

The axons of stellate cells have both local and/or distant

distributions and a morphology characteristic of intrinsic

axons. As with all the other cell types, the axon may take

its origin from the cell body or a low order dendrite.

wide field vertical

cell

There are two similar populations in the group of wide

field vertical cells. The first lies in the deep margin of the

zone of vertical cells where it looks very similar to the

piriform cells relative to the zone of horizontal cells. Cajal

called these the ovoid or triangular cells. The second

population has its cell bodies distributed primarily to the

upper portion of the zone of optic fibers. Cajal called

these triangular or stellate cells. Cajal's nomenclature is

rather bulky and, though descriptive, somewhat confusing

because stellate cells are a distinct cell type in the

nomenclature of this paper and triangular occurs in both

names. For reasons developed below, the ovoid or

triangular cells or wide field cells of the zone of vertical

cells will be called Type II ganglion cells and the triangular

or stellate cells or wide field cells of the zone of optic

fibers will be called Type III ganglion cells. Type I

ganglion cells are the piriform cells. Collator note: we

assumed this class of neurons as projection neurons,

because at least several subpopulations project to visually

related areas. See Sefton et al., 2005; Mason and Groos,

1981; Mackay to Sim et al. 1983; Okoyama and Kudo,

1987).

"The Dentate gyrus HIPP cell (HIlar Perforant Path-

conspicuous of distribution of copious, long and often

branched spines over its cell body and dendrites. The

axonal plexus can extend as much as 3.5mm along the

septotemporal axis of the dentate gyrus. Since inhibitory

interneurons typically have aspiny dendrites and relatively

local axonal plexuses, this long spined multipolar/HIPP

cell is a very atypical interneuron".

are visualized by immunostaining for Calretinin (CR) and

establish multiple symmetrical synapses on the dendrites

and somata of other CR-positive IS-I cells, Calbindin

(CB) containing interneurons, and VIP-positive basket

cells, but they do not innervate PV-containing

interneurons. The dendrites of Dentate gyrus IS I neurons

appear in all layers of Dentate gyrus and more

characteristic feature of these dendrites is that they form

long dendrodendritic junctions with each other.
