AbstractCerebellar nuclei (CN) neurons serve as the primary output of the cerebellum and originate from the cerebellar primordium at the early stages of cerebellar development. Employing various methodologies, we have characterized a specific subset of CN neurons that do not originate from the rhombic lip and the ventricular zone of the cerebellar primordium.

AbstractIn the early cerebellar primordium, there are two progenitor zones, the ventricular zone (VZ) residing atop the IVth ventricle and the rhombic lip (RL) at the lateral edges of the developing cerebellum. These zones give rise to the several cell types that form the GABAergic and glutamatergic populations of the adult cerebellum, respectively. Recently, an understanding of the molecular compartmentation of these zones has emerged.
