• facial neuron migration is normal
|
• small number of Purkinje cells have abnormal orientation deviating from normal orientation where cell bodies are perpendicular to the surface of the cerebellar cortex
|
• almost all cells show a marked decrease in branches and dendritic spines compared to wild-type
|
• cell bodies of some Purkinje cells are dissociated from the cerebellar Purkinje cell layer and ectopically located in molecular layer
