English: Cerebellar cortex. Dyeing: impregnation with nitric acid silver. Magnification: 400. Microscope: MICROmed (XS-5520). The cerebellar cortex includes three layers: 1. Molecular layer - the most superficial; formed by dendritic crowns of Purkinje cells, axons of granular neurons, bodies and processes of basket and stellate neurons, candelabra cells; it also includes dendrites of Golgi cells; 2. The layer of Purkinje cells is not continuous - it is formed by perikaryons of pear-shaped neurons, which are located at a certain distance from each other; 3. Granular layer - directly adjacent to the white matter; the main type of cells are grain cells, the perikaryons of which can collide, forming separate groups-clusters. The free space between granular cells is filled with Golgi, Lugaro cells, and also brush neurons.
