This confocal micrograph shows specialized cells named Purkinje cells (red) that are found in a part of the brain called the cerebellum. They send out vast numbers of branches that make connections wi...

Purkinje neuron from mouse cerebellum injected with Lucifer Yellow and imaged using confocal microscopy. This image represents a mosaic of 4 different volumes, and has been downsampled from the raw da...

A Purkinje neuron from the cerebellum of an adult rat, injected with Lucifer Yellow. The elaborate, highly branched dendritic arbor is revealed in this maximum projection image which was generated by...

Confocal image of synaptic connexions in the mouse olivo-cerebellar system. Purkinje cells (immunofluorescence, blue), olivary axons (anterograde tracing, yellow) and synaptic terminals (immunofluore...

A Purkinje neuron from the cerebellum of a 2 month old male C57BL/6 mouse, injected with Lucifer Yellow. The elaborate, highly branched dendritic arbor is revealed in this maximum projection image wh...

Dorsal root ganglion cells from embryonic mice were cultured and stimulated to produce cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Cultures were immuno-stained for neuron-associated tubulin (green), COX-2 (red) and DNA...

Confocal microscope image of a developing Purkinje cell in the cerebellum of a 9 day postnatal rat. The cerebellum contains millions of these cells which are involved with integrating motor and sensor...

Fluorescent 2-photon micrograph showing the cerebellar network of purkinje neurons from a mouse. The neurons are visualized with green fluorescent protein (GFP). Purkinje cells are specialized neurons...
