Fig. 6. Profile of intracellularly stained neuron #2. (A) The impaled neuron with
the response properties shown in Fig.
5 was intracellularly labeled with Lucifer Yellow. The axon of
neuron #2 labeled with Lucifer Yellow was directly traced to the superficial
extensor muscle (Area-1), shown enlarged in Area-2. Note that there are no
axonal branches to share with the stretch receptor. (B) The complete profile
of another neuron #2 with a deformed
-like dendritic structure. Bars,
500µm. N3, third segmental nerve; SEM1, medial superficial extensor muscle;
SEM2, lateral superficial extensor muscle; SR, stretch receptor; TG, thoracic
ganglion.
