| Research Abstract |
I performed Ca2+ fluorescence imaging in the cerebellar cortex with a two-photon and confocal microscopes. Ca2+ fluorescence intensity transiently increased by the electrical stimulation of the ipsilateral hindlimb. Spontaneous activity synchronized in neighbor Purkinje neurons. The synchronization also occurred in stellate cells, interneurons in the cerebellar cortex and stronger correlation was observed to the direction of the anterior-posterior axis. A boundary of the synchronization was not found in the field-of-view.
