Purkinje cells in a turtle brainstem–cerebellum preparation. Sulforhodamine 101.

An in vitro brainstem–cerebellum preparation, from the turtle Chrysemys picta, soaked in 0.01% sulforhodamine 101 (Cat. no. S359). Following stimulation of the cerebellorubral circuits, the Purkinje cells in the preparation took up the dye. The distinctive pattern of neuronal labeling suggests that motor programs are highly distributed in the red nucleus, cerebellum and brainstem. (J Neurosci 12, 3187 (1992)) The image was contributed by Joyce Keifer, The McGaw Medical Center, Northwestern University.
