Abstract
The detailed morphology of Bergam glial cell was observed in single field of view during observation of Golgi stained mouse cerebellar cortex under the high voltage electron microscopy. The 3-dimensional organization of Bergman glial cell fully demonstrated with 8-degree stereo-paired images. The morphology of Bergman glial fiber and its appendages forming microdomains connected to other glial fiber are clearly presented in this image. This image provides a valuable insight for understanding morphology of Bergman glial cell.
Highlights
The detailed morphology of Bergam glial cell was observed in single field of view during observation of Golgi stained mouse cerebellar cortex under the high voltage electron microscopy
The overall description on morphology of the Bergman glial cell (BG) has been reported based on light microscope with immunohistochemistry or Golgi stain
Light microscopic observation of Golgi staining BG provides morphological characteristics of the cell, detailed image reported was mainly reported based on camera lucida drawing due to the technical limitation of light microscopy and camera system
Summary
The detailed morphology of Bergam glial cell was observed in single field of view during observation of Golgi stained mouse cerebellar cortex under the high voltage electron microscopy. Bergman glial cell (BG) is a peculiar to cerebellar cortex, is called Golgi epithelial cell. This cell is reported as one of three variants of astrocyte in the cerebellum (Palay and Chan-Palay 1972). The BGs play important role in granule cell migration and cerebellar development.
