Using the Golgi method we studied chandelier cells in the auditory cortex of monkeys (Macaca irus) subjected to hypoxia before perfusion, and in newborn humans deceased in hypoxic states. In humans these cells have round or ovoid bodies showing usually beaded and sparsely-spined dendrites. These may arise either from both apical and basal poles or from all directions of the soma. With respect to their axons, we found two different types of chandelier cells: cells with extended chandelier complexes which occupied several cortical layers, and cells with local chandelier complexes. The former has rows of vertical terminal endings and the latter has vertical terminals and curved beaded fibers. In adult monkeys, chandelier cells show similar characteristics. The possible relationships between chandelier cells, hypoxia and epilepsy, is discussed.
我们运用高尔基方法，研究了灌注前经历缺氧的猕猴（恒河猴）听觉皮层中的吊灯细胞，以及死于缺氧状态的新生儿的吊灯细胞。在人类中，这些细胞具有圆形或椭圆形的胞体，通常有串珠状且稀疏有棘的树突。这些树突可能从顶端和基部两极发出，也可能从胞体的各个方向发出。关于它们的轴突，我们发现了两种不同类型的吊灯细胞：具有延伸至几个皮层层的吊灯复合体的细胞，以及具有局部吊灯复合体的细胞。前者有一排排垂直的终末，后者有垂直的终末和弯曲的串珠状纤维。在成年猕猴中，吊灯细胞表现出类似的特征。文中讨论了吊灯细胞、缺氧与癫痫之间可能的关系。
