摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter reviews studies that provide a precise description of the postnatal development basal ganglia utilizing morphological and electrophysiological parameters. It provides baseline for evaluating consequences surgical pharmacological manipulation in neonates. The analysis suggests qualitatively there are few changes caudate. At least by 12 days age, probably at birth, nucleus has its full complement medium spiny neurons. basic dendrite structure is fixed sense number branches per appears to be constant. Dendritic elongation occurs postnatally. An exception lack qualitative might neonatal varicose dendrite, which loses varicosities as it develops. Some mature-appearing spines present birth increase differentially density total on distal with maturation. Adult-like synapses encountered although many immature present.
