- Mouse Cerebellar Granule Cells from CD1
The development of the cerebellum involves a set of coordinated cell movements and two separate proliferation zones: the ventricular zone and the external granule cell layer (EGL), a rhombic-lip-derived progenitor pool [1]. The EGL appears to be segregated during early cerebellum formation and produces only granule cells. Cerebellar granule cells (CGC) are the most abundant neurons of the brain [2]. Their axons run as parallel fibres along the coronal axis, and the one-dimensional spread of excitation that is expected to result from this arrangement is a key assumption in theories of cerebellar function. CGC receive inhibitory synaptic input from Golgi cells, which are mediated by gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). During both in vivo and in vitro development, CGC depend on the activity of the NMDA glutamate receptor subtype for survival and full differentiation [3]. Cultured CGC are widely used as a model system for studying neuronal apoptosis.
MCGC from ScienCell Research Laboratories are isolated from mice cerebellum. MCGC are cryopreserved at primary culture and delivered frozen. Each vial contains >1 x 10^6 cells in 1 ml volume. MCGC are characterized by immunofluorescent method with antibodies to neurafilament, MAP2, and beta-tubulin 3. MCGC are negative for mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. MCGC are guaranteed to further culture in the conditions provided by ScienCell Research Laboratories.
