anterior horn

There is further integration in the anterior horn cells of the spinal cord.

The anterior horn is where the cell bodies of alpha motor neurons are located.

Disorders affecting the anterior horns of the spinal cord include:

The fatal childhood disorder is associated with loss of anterior horn cells and infantile death.

She was diagnosed with anterior horn cell demyelitis and died on September 22 1974, at the age of 45.

The evidence for anterior horn cell involvement comes from radiological and electromyographical studies.

These are the anterior horns, or ventral horns.

Anterior horn cells, motoneurons located in the spinal cord.

Peripheral motor nerves carry the motor impulses from the anterior horn to the voluntary muscles.

This is in contrast to most other motor neurons, whose cell bodies are found in the spinal cord's anterior horn.

They had a long anterior horn set at a forward-sloping angle and a downward head carriage useful for sweeping snow away from winter pastures.

The lateral corticospinal tract leaves out of the anterior horns of the spinal cord.

Specifically, the anterior horn α-motorneurons degenerate within the first six months of life leading to a variety of symptoms.

CM cells descend into the spinal cord to form monosynaptic connections with motor neurons in the anterior horn.

Anterior horn (disambiguation)

The syndrome appears to involve the spinal cord: specifically, the anterior horn cells subserving the affected muscles are often damaged.

In addition to an abnormally small cerebellum and brainstem including the pons, there is a degeneration of the anterior horn cells.

This species has a straight body 70-200 m long and 30-50 m wide, with the epitheca gradually tapering into an anterior horn.

Two horns on the skull were made of keratin, the anterior horn being 1 metre (3 feet) in length, with a smaller horn between its eyes.

Because a different population of anterior horn cells is stimulated with each stimulation, each F wave have a slightly different shape, amplitude and latency.

The hyperexcitable corticomotoneurons drive anterior horn cells into metabolic deficit, resulting in cell degeneration and death.

Neuronal loss is marked in the basal ganglia and thalamus without any anterior horn cell involvement when autopsy is done.

The anterior horn contains motor neurons that affect the axial muscles while the posterior horn receives information regarding touch and sensation.

The fibers of the corticospinal tract terminate at different levels in the anterior horn of the grey matter of the spinal cord.

The size and shape of spinal cord at different levels are normal but anterior horn motoneurons are diminished in number and degenerated.
