Thousands of coiled fine - touch mechanoreceptors called Meissner's corpuscles, the most important sensory component of the foreskin, encapsulated Vater - Pacinian cells, Merkel's cells, nociceptors, and branches of
the dorsal nerve and perineal nerve.
(C) INX - 1:: GFP expression (green) in
dorsal nerve cord (dnc) and body wall muscles (bwm);
dorsal nerve cord is visualized with anti-UNC-33 antibody (red).
As expected, this construct (minus F56B12) rescued forward but not backward locomotion, and UNC - 7S was strongly expressed as puncta in the nerve ring and ventral nerve cord, but not
the dorsal nerve cord (consistent with lack of DA and DB motor neuron expression).
UNC - 7S and UNC - 7SR are widely expressed and co-localize extensively with green fluorescent protein - tagged innexin UNC - 9 in the ventral and
dorsal nerve cords.
INX - 1:: GFP is expressed in the nerve ring, ventral and
dorsal nerve cords, and pharynx and body muscles (Figure 5B, C).
«When a baby boy's natural and intact penis is «circumcised,» this is what is lost forever: ** An estimated 240 feet of microscopic nerves, including branches of
the dorsal nerve.

-- and yet I got shingles, AKA a super painful, non-contagious reawakening of the varicella (AKA chickenpox) virus in your
dorsal root ganglion (
nerve roots) that emerges as an excruciating and somewhat debilitating rash (that can be very dangerous, even deadly, for immunocompromised individuals).
Next, the researchers looked to the
dorsal horn of the spinal cord, where signals from peripheral
nerves are routed to the brain, and found the receptors for Nppb in a group of neurons that release a molecule called gastrin - releasing peptide, or GRP.
The pathology found in the
dorsal root ganglia and sensory
nerves may explain the localized pain and motor deficits that Lyme disease patients experience close to the origin of the tick bite.
Chen's team focused on the
dorsal root ganglion of laboratory mice, a structure near the spinal cord that is full of sensory
nerve cells.
Those fixed for histology, placed in tissue culture, and snap - frozen in OCT for cryosectioning included the heart, pericardium, bladder, knee and elbow joint tissues, skeletal muscle (bicep and quadriceps), dura mater, brain (cerebrum, cerebellum and brainstem), back skin, axillary and mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen, spinal cord and
dorsal root ganglia, and peripheral
nerves (sural, tibial, ulnar and median).
The only difference is that the chordate
nerve bundle is
dorsal.
One distinction to note is that the
nerve bundle is
dorsal in zebrafish and ventral in annelids.
These include
dorsal and hemilaminectomies, ventral slot procedures, intervertebral disc fenestration, and exploration of the peripheral
nerves and
nerve roots.
