The cerebellar cortex of albino mice, hamsters, teleost fishes, primates and human have been examined by correlative microscopy to study the Golgi cell soma, dendritic processes, axonal plexus and synaptic connections in the granular and molecular layers. For light microscopy (LM) toluidinc blue stained-plastic embedded scmithin sections and Golgi light microscopy preparations were used. For confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) of hamster cerebellum the FM4-64 fluorescent stain was used as intracellular tracer (1). Conventional and high resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of teleost fishes, primates and human were coated with gold-palladium and chromium (2). I Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). either by ullrathin sections or frccze-clching replicas, were examined to characterize synaptic connections in the granular and molecular layers. The Golgi cells appeared in the granular layer as polygonal, stellate, round or fusiform microncurons. 10-25 μm in maximal dimension, surrounded by the granule cell groups. Golgi light microscopy.
