Bergmann Glial Cell
Description: Type of radial astrocyte in the cerebellar cortex that have their cell bodies in the Purkinje cell layer and processes that extend into the molecular layer, terminating with bulbous endfeet at the pial surface. Bergmann glia express high densities of glutamate transporters that limit diffusion of the neurotransmitter glutamate during its release from synaptic terminals. Besides their role in early development of the cerebellum, Bergmann glia are also required for the pruning or addition of synapses.

Purkinje cell layer of cerebellar cortex
Description: A cell layer of the cerebellar cortex, characterized by a single sheet of very large, bottle-shaped Purkinje neurons that are regularly spaced and possess flattened fanlike dendritic arborizations, lying deep to the molecular layer and superficial to the granule cell layer.
