Population-scale organization of cerebellar granule neuron signaling during a visuomotor behavior. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Granule cells at the input layer of the cerebellum comprise over half the neurons in the human brain and are thought to be critical for learning. However, little is known about granule neuron signaling at the population scale during behavior.

Spike burst-pause dynamics of Purkinje cells regulate sensorimotor adaptation.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2019
Cerebellar Purkinje cells mediate accurate eye movement coordination. However, it remains unclear how oculomotor adaptation depends on the interplay between the characteristic Purkinje cell response patterns, namely tonic, bursting, and spike pauses ...

Temporal properties of cerebellar-dependent memory consolidation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Classical conditioning of the nictitating membrane response in rabbits is a well defined model of cerebellar-dependent motor memory. This memory undergoes a period of consolidation after the training session, when it is sensitive to reversible ...

Nitric oxide and synaptic function [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The free radical gas nitric oxide (NO) is a recently identified neuronal messenger that carries out diverse signaling tasks in both the central and peripheral nervous systems.

Purkinje Cells Pathology in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Alzheimer's Disease & Other Dementias®, 2019
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the main causes of dementia in senium and presenium. It is clinically characterized by memory impairment, deterioration of intellectual faculties, and loss of professional skills. The cerebellum is a critical part in the distributed neural circuits participating not only in motor function but also in autonomic ...

Studying cerebellar circuits by remote control of selected neuronal types with GABA-A receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2009
Although GABA-A receptor-mediated inhibition of cerebellar Purkinje cells by molecular layer interneurons (MLIs) has been studied intensely on the cellular level, it has remained unclear how this inhibition regulates cerebellum-dependent behaviour.

Apoptosis inducing factor deficiency causes reduced mitofusion 1 expression and patterned Purkinje cell degeneration

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2011
Alteration in mitochondrial dynamics has been implicated in many neurodegenerative diseases. Mitochondrial apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) plays a key role in multiple cellular and disease processes.

Are Purkinje Cell Pauses Drivers of Classically Conditioned Blink Responses?

open access: yesCerebellum, 2015
Several lines of evidence show that classical or Pavlovian conditioning of blink responses depends on the cerebellum. Recordings from cerebellar Purkinje cells that control the eyelid and the conditioned blink show that during training with a ...

Loss of the tuberous sclerosis complex protein tuberin causes Purkinje cell degeneration

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2011
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a neurogenetic disorder that often causes brain abnormalities leading to epilepsy, developmental delay, and autism.

Firing Dynamics of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2007
Knowledge of intrinsic neuronal firing dynamics is a critical first step to establishing an accurate biophysical model of any neuron. In this study we examined cerebellar Purkinje cells to determine the bifurcations likely to underlie firing dynamics within a biophysically realistic and experimentally supported model.
