1 Table of Contents: Chapter 1 The organization of the spinal cord Charles Watson and Gulgun Kayalioglu The gross anatomy of the spinal cord Spinal cord segments Spinal nerves Spinal cord gray and white matter. Lateral cervical nucleus Lateral spinal nucleus Onuf s nucleus Central canal Spinal cord meninges Vasculature of the spinal cord Chapter 2 Development of the spinal cord Ken WS Ashwell From neural plate to neural tube Neural crest development Alar and basal plates and their derivatives Segmentation of the developing spinal cord Motoneuron development and cell death Development of spinal cord afferents and dorsal horn interneurons Development of glia in the spinal cord Development of major ascending and descending tracts Myelination of spinal cord pathways Relative growth of the spinal cord and vertebral column Chapter 3 The vertebral column and the spinal meninges Gulgun Kayalioglu The vertebral column General features of the vertebrae in mammals Interspecific variation in vertebral number The rodent vertebral column Cervical vertebrae in humans Thoracic vertebrae in humans Lumbar vertebrae in humans. The sacrum in humans The coccyx in humans Curvatures of the spine Joints of the vertebrae Joints between vertebral bodies Joints between vertebral arches The craniovertebral joints Lumbosacral joints Sacrococcygeal joint

2 Intercoccygeal joints Sacro-iliac joints The intrinsic muscles of the vertebral column The spinal meninges Intermediate leptomeningeal layer Chapter 4 The spinal nerves Gulgun Kayalioglu The anatomy of the dorsal and ventral roots and spinal nerves Dorsal root (spinal) ganglia Spinal nerves Dermatomes Chapter 5 The spinal cord blood vessels Oscar U Scremin Blood flow and spinal cord function Capillary networks Spinal cord blood flow imaging Arterial anatomy Venous anatomy Spinal cord lymphatic drainage Experimental spinal cord ischemia Blood flow in spinal cord trauma Chapter 6 Cytoarchitecture of the spinal cord Claire Heise and Gulgun Kayalioglu The laminae of Rexed Lamina 1 Lamina 2 Lamina 3 Lamina 4 The dorsal nucleus Lamina 5 Lamina 6 Lamina 7 Lamina 8 Lamina 9 Lamina 10 Chapter 7 Localization of motoneurons in the spinal cord Steve McHanwell and Charles Watson Introduction motoneuron types Cellular organization of neurons within the ventral and intermediate horns

3 Experimental approaches to motoneuron localization Topography of motoneuron pools in the upper cervical spinal cord Topography of forelimb motoneuron pools in the cervical enlargement Topography of motoneuron pools in the thoracic and upper lumbar spinal cord Topography of hindlimb motoneuron pools in the lumbosacral spinal cord Muscles of the perineum Deep muscles of the back and tail Chapter 8 Spinal autonomic preganglionic neurons: the visceral efferent system of the spinal cord Colin R Anderson, Janet R Keast, and Elspeth M McLachlan Visceral efferent pathways Spatial distribution of preganglionic neurons Morphology of preganglionic neurons and arrangement of their dendrites Sympathetic preganglionic neurons Parasympathetic preganglionic neurons Chemistry of preganglionic neurons Chemistry of synaptic inputs to preganglionic neurons Regulation of pelvic organ function Chapter 9 Central nervous system control of micturition Gert Holstege and Han Collewijn Afferent fibers from bladder to sacral spinal cord Sensory endings in the bladder wall Sensory endings in the urethra Sacral cord Bladder C-fibers Bladder A-delta fibers Ascending projections Motor innervation of bladder and bladder sphincter Somatomotor innervation of the external bladder sphincter Sacral micturition reflexes Periaqueductal gray Pontine micturition center (PMC) Continence center or L-region Other brainstem-spinal pathways possibly involved in bladder and sphincter motoneuronal control Forebrain micturition control Chapter 10 Projections from the spinal cord to the brain Gulgun Kayalioglu

Stuart I Hodgetts, Giles W Plant, and Alan R Harvey General pathophysiology of SCI

5 Types of spinal cord injury Immune and inflammatory responses following SCI Methods to induce spinal cord injury Assessing functional recovery in animal models of SCI Assessing human functional recovery Differences between animal models and humans and functional recovery after SCI Strategies to treat SCI Clinical trials Chapter 15 Atlas of the rat spinal cord Charles Watson, George Paxinos. Gulgun Kayalioglu, and Claire Heise Introduction Methods Cresyl violet staining and AChE histochemistry Immunohistochemical processing Mounting Photography and diagrams Nomenclature and abbreviations Basis of delineation of structures Naming of spinal cord segments Identification of regions and segments of the spinal cord in the rat and mouse List of structures Rat spinal cord figures and plates Chapter 16 Atlas of the mouse spinal cord Charles Watson, George Paxinos. Gulgun Kayalioglu, and Claire Heise Introduction Methods Mouse spinal cord sections provided by the Allen Institute for Brain Science Photography and diagrams Basis of delineation of structures List of structures Mouse spinal cord figures and plates Chapter 17 Toward a spinal cord ontology Charles Watson and Amandeep Sidhu What is an ontology? Regional subdivisions in the spinal cord A new regional classification based on development An ontological outline of spinal cord nomenclature Six levels in the spinal cord ontology Subdividing the limb enlargements into rostral and caudal

6 groups Detailed similarities between the arrangement of motoneuron groups in the brachial and lumbar enlargements Similarities between the segments that immediately precede the upper and lower limb enlargements Does this spinal cord ontology have any practical application?
