The development and molecular characterization of muscle spindles from wildtype and mutant mice
Muscle spindles are complex stretch-sensitive mechanoreceptors that consist of 4-12 specialized muscle fibers. These intrafusal muscle fibers are innervated in the central (equatorial) region by an afferent sensory axon and in both peripheral (polar) regions by efferent γ-motoneurons. Until now litt...
