Article Synopsis
  • The study involved 54 patients diagnosed with aseptic necrosis of the femoral head, focusing on specific changes associated with this condition.
  • Researchers identified vegetative-trophic disturbances linked to the autonomic nerves at specific segments of the spinal cord (LIII and LIV).
  • The characteristics of the nerve supply to the femoral head were analyzed in both humans and experimental animals to better understand this pathology.

The Karnovsky-Roots method was used for the light and electron cytochemical detection of acetylcholinesterase distribution in the cat cervical spinal cord. A specific reaction was found not only in nervous elements of the motor nuclei, but also in some astrocytes, satellite glial and Schwann cells. AChE activity was demonstrated in satellite cells accompanying both cholinergic and noncholinergic neurons.

Article Synopsis
  • A histochemical analysis was conducted on the cat cervical spinal cord to examine the composition of motor nuclei, focusing on motoneurons and their enzyme, acetylcholinesterase (AChE).
  • Motoneurons were identified by the specific location of AChE within the cell, indicating their role in synthesizing the enzyme and transporting it, with these neurons comprising 40-65% of the neuronal population.
  • Additionally, large cholinergic motoneurons were found to be associated with smaller glycine-accumulating neurons, highlighting a complex network of interactions with diverse synaptic inputs, including noradrenergic and serotoninergic terminals.
