Figure 5. Bergmann glia direct stellate interneuron arborization onto Purkinje cell dendrites.

Figure 5

Purkinje cells (shown in yellow) receive synaptic inputs (shown in green) from stellate interneurons (shown in blue) at only the distal portions of their dendrites. Bergmann glia (shown in red) cell processes act as a scaffold for stellate axon guidance and synaptogenesis onto Purkinje cell dendrites. Figure is modified from REF. 40.
