Purkinje cells are the primary integrative neurons of the cerebellar cortex and provide its sole output.
C-fibers account for 60-70% of primary afferent neurons that innervate the skin.
The cell bodies of these primary neurons are located in the dorsal root ganglia.
A somatosensory pathway will typically have three long neurons: primary, secondary and tertiary (or first, second, and third).
In all species, including vertebrates and invertebrates, many types of primary sensory neurons are pseudounipolar.
First, it might be made in primary nociceptive neurons and transported up to the thalamus.
Sensitivity and response dynamics of elasmobranch electrosensory primary afferent neurons to near threshold fields.
The basolateral membrane forms chemical synapses with primary gustatory neurons (Fig.
Mechanoreceptors are primary neurons that respond to mechanical stimuli by firing action potentials.
The increase in calcium ultimately causes neurotransmitter release, which is then received by a primary afferent neuron.
