Transient developmental Purkinje cell axonal torpedoes in healthy and ataxic mouse cerebellum
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016 Information is carried out of the cerebellar cortical microcircuit via action potentials propagated along Purkinje cell axons. In several human neurodegenerative diseases, focal axonal swellings on Purkinje cells – known as torpedoes – have been ...

Biosynthesis, mode of action and functional significance of neurosteroids in the Purkinje cell
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2011 The brain has traditionally been considered to be a target site of peripheral steroid hormones. In addition to this classical concept, we now know that the brain has the capacity to synthesize steroids de novo from cholesterol, the so-called ...

A signal processing analysis of Purkinje cells in vitro
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2010 Cerebellar Purkinje cells in vitro fire recurrent sequences of Sodium and Calcium spikes. Here, we analyze the Purkinje cell using harmonic analysis, and our experiments reveal that its output signal is comprised of three distinct frequency bands, which ...

Human neuronal stargazin-like proteins, gamma(2), gamma(3) and gamma(4); an investigation of their specific localization in human brain and their influence on Ca(V)2.1 voltage-dependent calcium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes [PDF]
, 2003 Background: Stargazin (gamma(2)) and the closely related gamma(3), and gamma(4) transmembrane proteins are part of a family of proteins that may act as both neuronal voltage-dependent calcium channel (VDCC) gamma subunits and transmembrane alpha-amino-3 ...

Dendritic spike induction of postsynaptic cerebellar LTP [PDF]
, 2008 The architecture of parallel fiber (PF) axons contacting cerebellar Purkinje neurons (PNs) retains spatial information over long distances. PF synapses can trigger local dendritic calcium spikes, but whether and how this calcium signal leads to plastic ...
