Abstract
Normal muscle spindles of human skeletal muscle were studied histochemically. 1) Four histochemical types of intrafusal muscle fibers were classified by ATPase stain: Bag I fiber, Bag II fiber, Chain I fiber and Chain II fiber. Moreover, two types of nuclear bag fibers were classified by NADH Tetrazolium Reductase stain and PAS stain: Bag I fiber and Bag II fiber. 2) Three kinds of fusimotor endings were verified by the cholinesterase technic: en plaque, en grappe and diffuse endings. 3) Two kinds of fusisensory endings were verified by NADH TR stain and also electron-microscopically: primary and secondary sensory endings.Entities:
