Smith, Dept. of Physiology and Biophysics, University of Washington\). These images show views of Golgi-impregnated Purkinje cells in mouse cerebellum. Purkinje cells are among the most morphologically distinctive cells in the brain. They have flask-shaped somas and extensively branched dendritic trees which are flattened in the dimension perpendicular to the long axis of the folium. The view on the left shows two Purkinje cells in a plane more or less parallel to the long axis of the folium, and although the dendritic trees are impressive, they do not appear to be completely impregnated, so in reality would be even more dense. The view on the right shows a cell in a plane somewhat closer to the perpendicular plane; the dendritic tree is relatively flattened. Purkinje cells are the output cells of the cerebellar cortex. The majority of Purkinje cells project to the deep cerebellar nulei, but some Purkinje cells in the flocculonodular lobe and parts of the vermis project directly to the vestibular nuclei.
