Molecular Profile
The Purkinje layer of the cerebellum, which contains the cell bodies of the Purkinje cells, together with Bergmann Glia, have been shown to express a large number of unique genes. Purkinje-specific gene markers were also proposed by comparing the transcriptome of Purkinje-deficient mice with that of wild-type mice.

Famous quotes containing the word profile:
“Nature centres into balls,
And her proud ephemerals,
Fast to surface and outside,
Scan the profile of the sphere;
Knew they what that signified,
A new genesis were here.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
