Dorsal Root Ganglion

  • If the page does not allow to copy, we can draw the picture out and reference from where it was taken from.

Introduction

Dorsal Root Ganglion is a cluster of neurone found in the dorsal root of the spinal nerve. The cells found in the ganglion develops from the neural crest migration at about 4 weeks post-conception (pc).

History

Embryonic Origins

Developmental Time Course

Differentiation occurs in the early stages of embryonic development. It consists of two embryonic transitional stages: Gliogenesis and maturation of Schwann cells. Matured Schwann cells further differentiates into myelinating and nonmyelinating types.
