A Study of the Transmission of Sensory Information in the Cat Spinal Cord
… activity recorded from single fibers in the dorsal columns and lateral funiculus of the cat spinal cord. Information obtained from human subjects with spinal lesions had indicated that the main impairment following dorsal column transection was one of tactile discrimination and position …

Investigating molecular mechanisms of neuronal regeneration: a microarray approach.
… changes in gene expression in the L4 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) in rat models of PNS and CNS injury. Our models included crush injury to both branches of the bifurcating axon of sensory neurons with cell bodies in the DRG (DRGNs). Injury to the peripheral branch at the level of the …

Promoting bridging axonal regeneration after spinal cord injury
… investigated by producing a transection of the dorsal columns at the lumbar 3-lumbar 4 (L3-L4) border using a wire knife device that cut ascending primary sensory afferents and immediately after, transplanting olfactory bulb derived OECs into the lesion. Regeneration was assessed in these fibres …

Response of sensorimotor pathways of the spinal cord to injury and experimental treatments
… in rats which were subjected to a lesion of the dorsal columns at the C4/5 segmental level. This lesion interrupts the main component of the corticospinal tract which descends in the ventromedial dorsal column and also interrupts the ascending collaterals of sensory fibres from forelimb nerves. …
