Morphometric features of ChAT-IR dorsal horn neurons from monkey (n = 10 neurons)^a

Solidity	Aspect ratio	Angle (°)	Fractal dimension	L total (μm)	No. of primary dendrites	No. of endings	L soma (μm)	l soma (μm)	% dorsal
0.011 ± 0.004	8.72 ± 1.72	94.6 ± 4.6	1.040 ± 0.009	326.9 ± 29.1	2.7 ± 0.2	5.2 ± 0.5	18.8 ± 0.8	10.5 ± 0.7	54.6 ± 7.2

^a Data are mean ± SEM. The analysis was performed on projection in the parasagittal plane of neurons reconstructed using their ChAT immunoreactivity (n = 10). See Materials and Methods for the calculation of first four parameters.

L total, rostrocaudal length of the neuron; No. of primary dendrites, number of processing arising directly from the cell body; No. of endings, number of final processes; L and l soma, rostrocaudal and dorsoventral, respectively, maximal size of ChAT-IR somata; % dorsal, percentage of the neuronal surface located dorsally to the soma.
