SUMMARY

This monograph reports on the detailed morphology of the inferior olivary complex in representatives of submammalian and mammalian vertebrates, including human. The authors provide qualitative and quantitative analysis using Nissl-stained, Golgi-impregnated, GFAP-,CABA-, and parvalbumin-immunostained sections. Electron microscopical data from this sections and freeze-etching replicas extend the information of the olivary neurons, neuropil, glia cells and its plasticity. The intramembranous structure of synaptic membranes, dendrodendritic gap junctions and puncta adhaerentia is reported for the first time in the inferior olivary complex of rat, ground squirrel, cat and pigeon
