To delineate major morphological differences between Purkinje and working myocardial fibers, a comparative electrophysiological and ultrastructural study of the Purkinje system and working myocardial cells was undertaken. To this effect, the false tendon, papillary muscle, trabeculae carneae and segments of the Purkinje extramural network from hearts of dogs, rabbits and cats were studied. The ...
The human superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene is responsible for neutralizing supercharged oxygen radicals within the cell. Mutation in SOD1 gene causes amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Recent studies have shown involvement of the cerebellum in ALS, although the cerebellar contribution in SOD1 transgenic mice remains unclear. Using immunohistopathology, we investigated the Purkinje cell phen...
The mammalian GABAJbenzodiazepine (GABAJBZ) receptor is comprised of several subunit isoforms: cq6, f3.3, Y,.~ and 6. In the present studies, the expression of (Y,, p2, and y2 subunit mFiNAs was examined in cerebellar Purkinje cells and deep cerebellar neurons of staggerer mutant mice during postnatal development. In control animals, the three subunit mRNAs were present at high density in Purki...
Reelin is an extracellular matrix protein synthesized in cerebellar granule cells that plays an important role in Purkinje cell positioning during cerebellar development and in modulating adult synaptic function. In the cerebellum of schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar (BP) disorder patients, there is a marked decrease ( approximately 50%) of reelin expression. In this study we measured Purkinje neu...
A single olivocerebellar fiber branches off several climbing fibers. One Purkinje cell receives input from only one climbing fiber. A single inferior olivary neuron, therefore, synapses with several Purkinje cells, so that there are more Purkinje cells than the inferior olivary neurons. We aimed to elucidate the numerical ratio of the inferior olivary neurons to Purkinje cells in the chicken. T...
The present investigation assessed the chronic toxicity of ibogaine on cerebellar Purkinje cells in male Fischer 344 rats. A behaviorally active dose of ibogaine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) was administered to a group of six subjects every other day for 60 days while the control group received an equivalent volume of saline (1 ml/kg). Estimates of Purkinje cell number were determined using the optical dis...
OBJECTIVE(S) The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of oxidative stress in Purkinje cell neurotoxicity of ethanol-treated rat. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male rat pups 4-day-old was used in this study. Ethanol was administered to rat pups at a dose of 6 g/kg from postnatal days (PDs) 4 to 5. Pups were killed 90 min after the second alcohol treatment on PD 5 by decapitation and the b...
The cerebellum is involved in the control of motor functions with Purkinje cells serving as the only output from the cerebellum. Purkinje cells are important targets for toxic substances and are vulnerable to prenatal insults. Intrauterine infection (IUI) has been shown to selectively target the developing cerebral white matter through lesioning, necrosis and inflammatory cytokine activation. D...
Presynaptic kainate receptors (KARs) facilitate or depress transmitter release at several synapses in the CNS. Here, we report that synaptically activated KARs presynaptically facilitate and depress transmission at parallel fiber synapses in the cerebellar cortex. Low-frequency stimulation of parallel fibers facilitates synapses onto both stellate cells and Purkinje cells, whereas high-frequenc...
We have shown previously that overdrive suppression of conduction in depolarized His-Purkinje tissue requires conduction asymmetry. In this study we examined whether overdrive suppression of conduction can occur at the Purkinje-muscle junction, where natural asymmetry of conduction exists. Canine Purkinje-muscle preparations were superfused with hyperkalemic Tyrode's solution (KCl 8 to 12 mM), ...
