It is now clearly established that steroids can be synthesized de novo by the vertebrate brain. Such steroids are called neurosteroids. To understand neurosteroid action in the brain, data on the regioand temporal-specifi c synthesis of neurosteroids are needed. In the middle 1990s, the Purkinje cell, an important cerebellar neuron, was identifi ed as a major site for neurosteroid formation in ...
To identify the anatomical basis for cardiac electrical signal conduction, particularly seeking the intramural terminals of conduction pathway within the ventricles, sheep hearts were examined compared with human hearts utilizing the characteristic morphology of Purkinje cells as a histological marker. In 15 sheep and five human autopsies of noncardiac death, prevalence of Purkinje or Purkinje-...
Cerebellar Purkinje cells integrate multimodal afferent inputs and, as the only projection neurones of the cerebellar cortex, are key to the coordination of a variety of motor- and learning-related behaviours. In the neonatal rat the cerebellum is undeveloped, but over the first few postnatal weeks both the structure of the cerebellum and cerebellar-dependent behaviours mature rapidly. Maturati...
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 "neurosteroids." In the middle 1990s, the Purkinje cell, an important cerebellar neuron, was identified as a major site for neurosteroid formation in the b...
Autophagy is a regulated lysosomal degradation process that involves autophagosome formation and transport. Although recent evidence indicates that basal levels of autophagy protect against neurodegeneration, the exact mechanism whereby this occurs is not known. By using conditional knockout mutant mice, we report that neuronal autophagy is particularly important for the maintenance of local ho...

Synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability depend on the concentration of extracellular calcium ([Ca](o)), yet repetitive synaptic input is known to decrease [Ca](o) in numerous brain regions. In the cerebellar molecular layer, synaptic input reduces [Ca](o) by up to 0.4 mm in the vicinity of stellate cell interneurons and Purkinje cell dendrites. The mechanisms used to maintain network ex...
Embryonic cerebellum transplanted to adult Purkinje cell degenerate mice was assessed for integration and Purkinje cell migration by using the antigenic markers Thy-1 and Leu-4. It was found that the grafted cells migrated into the host's molecular layer, but there was no evidence for specific migration of Purkinje cells. Furthermore, grafted cells were found to form normal cerebellar cyto-arch...
Bcl-w belongs to the prosurvival group of the Bcl-2 family, while the glutamate receptor delta2 (Grid2) is an excitatory receptor that is specifically expressed in Purkinje cells, and required for Purkinje cell synapse formation. A recently published result as well as our own findings have shown that Bcl-w can physically interact with an autophagy protein, Beclin1, which in turn has been shown ...
Dopamine signaling is required for depolarization-induced slow current in cerebellar Purkinje cells.
Brief strong depolarization of cerebellar Purkinje cells produces a slow inward cation current. This current, called depolarization-induced slow current (DISC), is triggered by Ca influx in the Purkinje cell and is attenuated by a blocker of vesicular fusion. Previous work in other brain regions, such as the substantia nigra and ventral tegmental area, has shown that dopamine can be released fr...
