In Golgi preparations from cat, two cell types were distinguished in this nucleus: a large spiny neuron (Golgi I type), and a small spine-sparse one (Golgi II type). Golgi I and II type cells found in these Golgi preparations were clipped, embedded in Epon, cut into thin sections, and the sizes of their nucleoli were measured. The distribution of nucleolar sizes demonstrated that the Golgi I type cell had a large nucleolus and the Golgi II type cell had a small one. Nucleolar sizes of the neurons in the intermediate principal nucleus were measured in Nissl preparations from cat, rat, tupaia, opossum, howling monkey, woolly monkey, chimpanzee and man. The result showed the existence of a neuronal group with a large nucleolus and one with a small nucleolus, except for the rat. The groups were considered to correspond to Golgi I and II type cells, respectively. The neurons corresponding to Golgi I type cells become larger with phylogenetic ascent. Those corresponding to Golgi II type cells, however, are identical. in all animals, and these nucleolar sizes coincide with the ones of the intercalated nucleus.}, pages = {533--540}, title = {扁桃体亜核の細胞構成 : 中間主核}, volume = {100}, year = {1986} }
