[Desmosome-like junctions of neurons in the anterior lobe of the cerebellum in the rat].
At electron microscopical investigation together with common desmosome-like connections, certain contact formations have been revealed, they possessing other morphological properties. These contact formations present themselves as areas of specialized plasmic membranes of perikaryons of neighbouring granular cells. From cytoplasm of both neurons subsuperficial flattened cisterns adjoin the contact area, thus forming together with the plasmic membranes a structure consisting of 11 layers. These specific connections of the neuronal membrane, having a more complex organization than desmosomes, participate in intracellular transport.
