Abstract

Spot 35 protein, applied iontophoretically, produced inhibition of spontaneous Purkinje cell activity in most cells and augmented the NE- or 5-HT-induced inhibition of spontaneous discharges whereas it hardly affected the inhibitory response of Purkinje cells to GABA, taurine, and β-alanine, and the excitatory response to glutamate. It is suggested that spot 35 protein may be involved in normal physiological operation of the cerebellum through modulation of the NE or 5-HT system.
