Greetings Card : Purkinje nerve cells in the cerebellum
Cards from Science Photo Library
Purkinje nerve cells in the cerebellum
Purkinje cells in the cerebellum. Fluorescent light micrograph of Purkinje cells (green) in the cerebellum of the brain. Purkinje nerve cells have a flask-like body from which numerous highly branched dendrites extend. They are found in the grey matter (cortex) of the cerebellum, at the boundary between the granular layer (blue red) and the molecular layer (red green). The dendrites relay signals to the cell body, which passes them on through its single axon (green) in the granular layer. The cerebellum is a structure at the base of the brain that plays an important role in motor control, sensory perception and learning. Magnification: x380 when printed 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Purkinje nerve cells in the cerebellum. The fluorescent light micrograph reveals these remarkable cells, with their distinct flask-like bodies and highly branched dendrites extending outwards. Positioned at the boundary between the granular layer and molecular layer in the grey matter of the cerebellum, these green-hued Purkinje cells play a crucial role in relaying signals. The image provides a glimpse into the complex inner workings of our brain's structure. With its single axon visible amidst the granular layer, this photograph highlights how these nerve cells transmit information from their dendrites to their cell body before passing it on further. The cerebellum itself holds immense significance as a vital component responsible for motor control, sensory perception, and learning. This microscopic view emphasizes its importance within our nervous system. With a magnification of x380 when printed 10cm wide, this print offers an up-close exploration into neurology and histology. It serves as a reminder of both our biological intricacies and the wonders that lie within us all.
