Kaemchataya cell

The border cell was first described by the German physiologist I. Herschel in 1879 as part of the frog brain in the region of the anterior part of the forebrain. Then it was discovered in other parts of the nervous system, in particular, in the cerebral cortex of animals of all species. Several morphological types of border cells with their own characteristics of ultrastructural organization were discovered. These cells do not have a cytoplasmic platform; all organelles are very compact and as close as possible to the nucleus. Therefore they are called protoplasmic cells. The glial cytoskeleton is very well developed in them. Nerve cells are completely devoid of myelin sheaths; only single dendrites without branches lie on the body. The number of processes varies from 3-5 to several dozen. The cell body is usually round, but sometimes with irregularities and tubercles.

S. limbata belongs to a type of neurons that perform both sensory and motor functions. A tissue biopsy from the parahippocampal gyrus of the brain was performed at the Institute of Experimental
