Regarding the relation of the sympathetic nervous system to the transverse striated muscles

Abstract

In several articles published from 1909 to 1913, the Dutch scientist Boeke described in the transverse striated muscles nerve fibers accompanying the motor fleshy ones and ending in the motor plaques of the transverse striated muscle fibers. Examining the m. obliquus sup. of a cat in which the n. trochlearis was cut immediately at the exit from the brain, Voeke found the endings of sensory and motor fibers and preserved muscleless fibers (the cat died on the 4th day after the operation) reincarnated. On this basis, the author attributed the sympathetic origin to these fibers.
