Description
Summary:Large interneurons of cerebellar cortex are described. Golgi Cells lie mostly in vestibulocerebellum. Their dendrites contact with parallel fibers and mossy fibers, axons terminate in glomerules. Golgi Cells inhibit granule cells and induce their synchronic rhythmic activity. Lugaro Cells lie in horizontal plane under ganglionic layer, form clasters and more frequent in paleocerebellum. Dendrites contact with collaterals Purkinje and basket cells axones; axones terminate on basket and stellate cell. Lugaro Cells stimulate Purkinje Cells by inhibiting of inhibitory stellate and basket cells. Candelabrum Cells are inhibitory interneurons which lie between Purkinje cells bodies. Axon forms horizontal branches in parasagittal plane in molecular layer, and vertical ones which resemble candelabrum. Unipolar brush cells – excitatory interneuron of the cerebel-lum, form system of intrinsic mossy fibers. Single axon forms numerous brush-like branches – dendrioles, which end in one common glomerules, axon collaterals terminate in another one. Synamortic neurons contact with neurons of cerebellar nuclei and another region of the cortex. Perivascular neurons regulate local blood flow.
