The substantia nigra of the adult rat was investigated by means of the Golgi rapid impregnation technique. Seven neuron types could be distinguished which differ with respect to morphological features (size and shape of pericaryon and dendritic pattern), behaviour of axons and prevalent localization within the nuclear area: 1. Polygonal neurons with somatic spines 2. Polygonal neurons without somatic spines 3. Fusiform neurons 4. Trigonal neurons 5. Small spherical neurons 6. Small spindle-shaped neurons 7. Neuroglioform neurons. The neuron types 1-4 are considered to represent nigral projection neurons; the types 5-7 might be interneurons. The findings presented here are discussed in view of recent physiological and biochemical as well as behavioral-pharmacological results.
采用高尔基快速浸染技术对成年大鼠的黑质进行了研究。可以区分出七种神经元类型，它们在形态特征（胞体大小和形状以及树突模式）、轴突行为和核区内的普遍定位方面存在差异：1. 具有体细胞棘的多角形神经元；2. 没有体细胞棘的多角形神经元；3. 梭形神经元；4. 三角形神经元；5. 小球形神经元；6. 小纺锤形神经元；7. 神经胶质样神经元。神经元类型1-4被认为代表黑质投射神经元；类型5-7可能是中间神经元。本文的研究结果结合近期的生理学、生物化学以及行为药理学研究结果进行了讨论。
