To study the propertes of the external geniculate body neuron's protein concentration and protein content were measured cytophotometrically in the cytoplasm of the above neurons in normal and visual deprivided animals 2.5 months after the birth. The results obtained suggest the increasing of protein concentration and protein content in the cytoplasm of neurons and the decreasing of protein concentration in surrounding structures. These changes varied depending on the neuron volume during the deprivation. It is supposed, that some groups of neurons exist in the external geniculate body with different degrees of specificity in respect to vision impulsation. Mechanisms of a possible rearrangement of the neuron metabolism in the external geniculate body during the deprivation are discussed.
为研究外侧膝状体神经元的特性,于出生后2.5个月,对正常和视觉剥夺动物上述神经元细胞质中的蛋白质浓度和蛋白质含量进行了细胞光度测量。所得结果表明,神经元细胞质中蛋白质浓度和蛋白质含量增加,而周围结构中蛋白质浓度降低。这些变化因剥夺期间神经元体积而异。据推测,外侧膝状体中存在一些对视觉冲动具有不同程度特异性的神经元群。本文讨论了剥夺期间外侧膝状体神经元代谢可能重新排列的机制。
