A modified horseradish peroxidase labelling technique was used to study the distribution pattern of neurons in the central chemosensitive fields of the medulla oblongata of cats. In several cryosectioned medullae a mapping of superficially located HRP-labelled neurons was achieved. The distribution and configuration of the labelled neurons indicate that most of them belong to the nucleus paragigantocellularis lateralis. However, by varying the time of incubation it was possible to identify different types of neurons. On the basis of certain aspects of the HRP incorporation mode and neuronal topography a specific type of small-sized neurons has been identified. Some functional implications of these small neurons with respect to their possible chemosensitive activity are discussed.
采用改良的辣根过氧化物酶标记技术，研究猫延髓中央化学感受区神经元的分布模式。在几张冷冻切片的延髓中，实现了对位于浅层的辣根过氧化物酶标记神经元的定位。标记神经元的分布和形态表明，它们大多数属于外侧旁巨细胞核。然而，通过改变孵育时间，可以识别出不同类型的神经元。根据辣根过氧化物酶掺入模式和神经元拓扑结构的某些方面，已识别出一种特定类型的小神经元。讨论了这些小神经元在其可能的化学感受活性方面的一些功能意义。
