Angelman syndrome: current understanding and research prospects.

30 Oct 2009 Angelman syndrome is a neurogenetic disorder characterized by developmental delay, severe intellectual disability, absent speech, exuberant behavior with happy demeanor, motor impairment, and epilepsy, due to deficient UBE3A gene expression that may ... Read more...

Radiopathological characteristics of cerebellar malignant glioma in adults.

25 Oct 2009 Our aim was to extract the radiopathological features of cerebellar malignant glioma in adults from the four cases we encountered. All four cases (two men and two women, aged 52-80 years; mean age, 67 years) had a floating sensation or vertigo at ... Read more...

In vivo role of a potassium channel-binding protein in regulating neuronal excitability and behavior.

19 Oct 2009 Molecular details of ion channel interactions with modulatory subunits have been investigated widely in transfected cells, but the physiological roles of ion channel modulatory protein complexes in native neurons remain largely unexplored. The ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Cerebellum'

Definition: The part of brain that lies behind the BRAIN STEM in the posterior base of skull (CRANIAL FOSSA, POSTERIOR). It is also known as the "little brain" with convolutions similar to those of CEREBRAL CORTEX, inner white matter, and deep cerebellar nuclei. Its function is to coordinate voluntary movements, maintain balance, and learn motor skills.
