Abstract
The cell soma of primary afferent neurons in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) is assigned by classical neurophysiology the role of a metabolic depot, charged with supporting the peripheral sensory ending, the conducting axon, and the central synaptic terminals. However, certain peculiarities oKeywords
