Abstract

The ultrastructure of 4 slowly adapting vibrissa primary afferent central terminal arbors was examined following intracellular injection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The terminals were found to contain clear round vesicles and formed primarily asymmetric synapses on dendritic shafts and spines. Few examples of synaptic glomeruli, with the labeled axon as the central element, were identified.
