The only excitatory neurons in cerebellar coex are?
Ans. is'd'i.e., Granule cells [Ref BDC Vol. 3 p 92)Purkinje cells are the only output cells from cerebellar coex.Purkinje cells send inhibitory efferents to deep cerebellar nuclei.Basket cells inhibit body of purkinje cells while stellate cells inhibit dendrites of purkinje cells.Granule cells send facilitatory efferents to basket, stellate and purkinje cells through parallel fibers.Climbing fibers and parallel fibers stimulate purkinje cells.
