Cochlear nucleus (dorsal) cartwheel cell
| Name: | Cochlear nucleus (dorsal) cartwheel cell |
| Definition: | The cell body lies in the pyramidal cell layer, and the dendrites span the molecular layer and are densely covered with spines, which are contacted by parallel fibers of the granule cells. Many features are shared with cerebellar Purkinje neurons. Cartwheel cells stain for GABA and glycine markers, and contact pyramidal, giant and other cartwheel cells through glycinergic synapses. |
| Synonym(s): | Cartwheel neuron |
