Ability of the Purkinje cells to long-term plasticity changes after joint stimulation of parallel and climbing fibres has been studied in the isolated cerebellum-medulla oblongata preparation of frog. 18 neurons have been chosen on the ground of the presence of clearly identifiable monosynaptic response to parallel fibre stimulation and stability of the background activity within two hours. These neurons belonged to three distinct categories: those having the clear climbing fibre response, those having the climbing fibre-like response and those without the climbing fibre response. The neurons of the first group showed a significant increase of the ability to respond to parallel fibre stimulation after joint stimulation of both types of fibres. The stimulating current strength which was necessary for the Purkinje cell firing index 1/2 was reduced after conditioning procedures in this neuron group to 0.7 of its original value. There were no substantial changes in parallel fibre stimulation efficiency in two other neuron groups.

D002531 Cerebellum The part of brain that lies behind the BRAIN STEM in the posterior base of skull (CRANIAL FOSSA, POSTERIOR). It is also known as the "little brain" with convolutions similar to those of CEREBRAL CORTEX, inner white matter, and deep cerebellar nuclei. Its function is to coordinate voluntary movements, maintain balance, and learn motor skills. Cerebella,Corpus Cerebelli,Parencephalon,Cerebellums,Parencephalons
D005071 Evoked Potentials Electrical responses recorded from nerve, muscle, SENSORY RECEPTOR, or area of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM following stimulation. They range from less than a microvolt to several microvolts. The evoked potential can be auditory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, AUDITORY), somatosensory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, SOMATOSENSORY), visual (EVOKED POTENTIALS, VISUAL), or motor (EVOKED POTENTIALS, MOTOR), or other modalities that have been reported.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013569 Synapses Specialized junctions at which a neuron communicates with a target cell. At classical synapses, a neuron's presynaptic terminal releases a chemical transmitter stored in synaptic vesicles which diffuses across a narrow synaptic cleft and activates receptors on the postsynaptic membrane of the target cell. The target may be a dendrite, cell body, or axon of another neuron, or a specialized region of a muscle or secretory cell. Neurons may also communicate via direct electrical coupling with ELECTRICAL SYNAPSES. Several other non-synaptic chemical or electric signal transmitting processes occur via extracellular mediated interactions. Synapse
