A morphological study of abducens nucleus motoneurons and internuclear neurons in the goldfish (Carassius auratus)
Abstract
The location and distribution of abducens (ABD) nucleus motoneurons (Mn) and internuclear neurons (Int) were determined in the goldfish (Carassius auratus) by means of horseradish peroxidase and fluorochrome retrograde labeling. ABD Mn were labeled following tracer injection into the ipsilateral lateral rectus muscle. These Mn were arranged in two ventrolateral clusters along the rostro-caudal axis of the posterior brainstem. Both groups of neurons showed a similar number of cells, and their axons ran ventrally to their respective nerve roots. ABD Int were labeled following the injection of the tracer into the contralateral oculomotor nucleus. They also formed two distinct groups in the rostro-caudal axis. The rostral group of Int formed a dorso-lateral cap around the caudal motoneuronal pool, with little if any intermingling. The caudal group of Int was located at the same position in the dorso-ventral and medio-lateral axis as the rostral group, but 500 microns behind it. Both groups of ABD Int had a similar number of neurons. Int axons ascended dorso-medially, then crossed the midline through the internal arcuate fibers, and entered the contralateral medial longitudinal fasciculus. The soma diameters of both ABD Mn and Int were not significantly different. The relative location of both types of neurons is discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
