[Glioarchitectonics of the cerebellar cortex and medulla of cows during postnatal development]

For the studies 2 cerebella of newborn calves and 4 cerebella of 4-week-old calves, and 1-, 3-, 6-, 10- and 14-year-old cows were used at a time. Paraffin cerebellum sections cut with a microtome were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and after Klüver Barrer's method as well as impregnated after the method of Klatzo, Ramon Moliner and Robain. In the material studied, glioarchitectonics of the cortex and medullary substance of the cerebellum was described. Morphological features of astrocytes, oligodendrocytes (light, medium stained, and dark) and microglia cells (round and pericytes) were described in the glia occurring in these parts of the cerebellum. In the particle layer and in that of purkinje cells morphological features of Fananas and Bergman cells, representing a variety of astrocytes, were described. Because of a great similarity of glia cells to granular, basket and stellate cells of the cerebellum, morphological features of these neurons were also described, giving a particulate attention to the differences in the structure of the latter and glia cells.
