Activation of climbing fibers

The Cerebellum, 2004
Cells in the inferior olive are the sole source of climbing fibers to the cerebellum. In this article, we review some of the discharge properties of olivary cells that are important for understanding its functional role in cerebellar processing. It is generally believed that climbing fiber input supplies the cerebellum with information related to ...

Motor Coding in Floccular Climbing Fibers

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2006
The climbing fibers (CFs) that project from the dorsal cap of the inferior olive (IO) to the flocculus of the cerebellar cortex have been reported to be purely sensory, encoding “retinal slip.” However, a clear oculomotor projection from the nucleus prepositus hypoglossi (NPH) to the IO has been shown. We therefore studied the sensorimotor information

Aspartate: Possible Neurotransmitter in Cerebellar Climbing Fibers

Science, 1982
Autoradiography demonstrated prominent retrograde labeling of olivocerebellar climbing fiber neurons after injection of tritiated D-aspartate into the rat cerebellar cortex or deep nuclei. Mossy fiber systems originating in the brainstem and spinal cord remained unlabeled.

Retrograde Signaling for Climbing Fiber Synapse Elimination

The Cerebellum, 2014
Neurons form exuberant synapses with target cells early in development. Then, necessary synapses are selectively strengthened whereas unnecessary connections are weakened and eventually eliminated during postnatal development. This process is known as synapse elimination and is a crucial step for shaping immature neural circuits into functionally ...

The Climbing Fiber

1974
RAMON y CAJAL (1888b) discovered the climbing fiber during his study of the cerebellar cortex of birds. In view of the difficulties electron microscopists had in identifying this nerve fiber nearly a century later, his first account is interesting.

Laser axotomy on cerebellar climbing fibers

2011 International Workshop on Biophotonics, 2011
In the adult nervous system, different population of neurons corresponds to different regenerative behavior. Although previous works show that olivocerebellar fibers are capable of axonal regeneration in a suitable environment as a response to injury [1], we have hitherto no details about the real dynamics of fiber regeneration.
