The effect of ageing on neurones in the visual sector of the thalamic reticular nucleus
1996
This paper studies the quantitative morphological changes occurring during ageing in neurones of the dorsocaudal or visual sector of the thalamic reticular nucleus. Male Wistar rats aged 3, 6, 18, 24 and 30 months were used in this study which applied morphometric methods. We have observed an increase in the size of neurones from this sector between the 3rd and 24th month and a decrease between the 24th and 30th month. In all the ages studied the majority of neurones are fusiform.
