The amount of DNA in cells of the granular layer of the cerebellum and their susceptibility to hypoxia.
Purkinje cells of the cerebellum are particularly susceptible to hypoxia. In these cells tetraploidy has been demonstrated. Therefore, a link between the susceptibility of cells of the cerebellum to hypoxia and the amount of DNA seems probable.
