neuron of the ventral spinal cord lower motor neuron spinal cord motor neuron anterior horn motor neuron 2014-10-03T00:26:27Z A lower motor neuron whose soma is located in the anterior horn. Anterior horn motor neurons project from the anterior portion of the grey matter in the spinal cord to some skeletal muscles. anterior horn cell Yang & Connolly (DOI:10.1016/B978-0-323-37101-8.00140-5) classify these as alpha motor neurons. Consider reflecting this if more references support this. CL:2000048 ventral horn of spinal cord spinal cord motor neuron NCIT:C12645
