Purkinje neuronnot knownbilateraluniformmoderatelightLabelling appeared to be constant mediolaterally, from vermis to hemispheres. However, a distinct staining gradient was noted in the sagittal plane (Fig. 1). The posterior lobules (especially lobules IX and X), the flocculus, and the paraflocculus exhibited the most abundant labelling, closely followed by lobules VII, VIII and then lobule VI. Labelled profiles were evident in all layers of the cerebellar cortex, predominantly in the molecular and Purkinje cell layers. Some Purkinje cells contained sparse reaction product in their perikarya, associated with small vesicles in the region of the Golgi apparatus.

In the upper molecular layer, terminals of stellate cells synapsing directly on Purkinje cell dendritic shafts also contained UCN-ir( Fig. 5).
