Rapid progress has been made in undestanding the organization and function of the cerebellum at the neuronal, synaptic, and molecular level. Of particular importance has been the identification of the chemical transmitters utilized by the cer ebellar cellular systems. More than any other brain region, the cerebellum utilizes amino acids as its main excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters. Excitatory amino acid transmitters, in addition to serving neuronal com munication, may also mediate trophic and toxic effects, and as such, they may playa role in neurodegenerative processes. The cerebellar degenerations were among the first human disorders with primary system atrophy to be studied clinically and pathologically. This field of clinical cerebellar sciences, no longer confined to the previously known descriptive level, is now advancing rapidly, propelled by rapid advances in neuroimaging, immunology, and molecular biology. The advent of CT, MRI, and PET has in recent years permitted the study of central nervous system alterations in living patien | 出版日期 | Book 1992 | 关键词 | anatomy; cortex; neurobiology; neurophysiology; neuroscience; physiology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-3510-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-6557-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-3510-2Series ISSN 0924-8935 | issn_series | 0924-8935 | copyright | Springer-Verlag US 1992 |
