Abstract
The fine structure of labelled spinothalamic terminals in the central lateral nucleus has been studied in the rat following injection of wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase into the spinal cord. Myelinated axons gave rise to the labelled terminals, which were large profiles which contained round vesicles, numerous mitochondria, and formed asymmetrical contacts with large dendrites or dendritic protrusions. These profiles are similar to those described in other somatosensory thalamic nuclei, and in many other nuclei of the thalamus.
