Differential ultracentrifugation and subcellular fractionation historically helped to study the components of the cell, to discover new cellular organelles, and to decipher their morphological and molecular properties. In neuroscience, the technique has yielded important results on neuron biochemistry and the mechanisms of synaptic transmission. This Cerebellar Classic is devoted to ... Read more >>

The "second" seminal monograph by Constantin von Economo on encephalitis lethargica appeared in print in German in 1929, following his initial report of the disease (eponymously associated with his name) before the Viennese Society of Psychiatry and Neurology and the publication of his "first" monograph on the subject in 1917. ...

The birth of neuroendocrinology as a scientific discipline is traced back to 1900-1901, when Joseph Babinski, Alfred Fröhlich, and Harvey Cushing independently identified adiposogenital dystrophy (Fröhlich syndrome), and related gonadal underdevelopment and obesity to a tumor near the pituitary gland. This discovery prompted decades of research into the brain mechanisms ... Read more >>

This commentary highlights a "cerebellar classic" by Heinrich Obersteiner (1847-1922), the founder of Vienna's Neurological Institute. Obersteiner had a long-standing interest in the cerebellar cortex, its development, and pathology, having provided one of the early accurate descriptions of the external germinal layer (sometimes called the "marginal zone of Obersteiner" or ...

Mario Manto, Lazaros C Triarhou,
The olivocerebellar tract has unique morphological, physiological, and developmental properties. Olivocerebellar axons are the source of multiple climbing fibers (CFs). The synapse between CFs and the Purkinje neuron is one of the most powerful excitatory in the central nervous system. Complex spikes are composed of an initial large amplitude spike ... Read more >>

Constantin von Economo (1876-1931) had a long-standing interest in the cellular structure of the human cerebral cortex. In the present article I highlight a historical paper that von Economo published in 1930 on the cytoarchitectonics of the Rolandic operculum, an English translation of which I provide as supplementary material.

Stroke of the cerebellum represents about 10% of strokes of the brain. Both infarction and hemorrhage manifest with symptoms related to the location and extent of the lesion(s). Bilateral cerebellar infarcts constitute up to one third of all cerebellar infarctions. The leading cause of cerebellar infarcts is emboli of cardiac ... Read more >>

The concept of the "conduction avalanche" as a mechanism of signal propagation in the central nervous system was introduced in 1895 by Santiago Ramón y Cajal. Through such a mechanism, stimuli received by sensory receptor cells would be augmented as they reached the cerebral cortex through the corresponding anatomical pathways, ... Read more >>
