• Optimal degrees of synaptic connectivity (2017, unknown): “Some studies have suggested that granule-cell input is more homogeneous (Jörntell and Ekerot, 2006; Bengtsson and Jörntell, 2009) and that granule cells function as noise filters (Ekerot and Jörntell, 2008) or improve generalization (Spanne and Jörntell, 2015).”
• Silencing the majority of cerebellar granule cells uncovers their essential role in motor learning and consolidation. (2013, unknown): “GCs’ unique design is probably essential to confer them high sensitivity for individual afferents (Chadderton et al., 2004; Ekerot and Jörntell, 2008; Rothman et al., 2009).”
• elife.elifesciences.org RESEARCH ARTICLE Convergence of pontine and (2013, unknown): “For example, a granule cell receiving all synaptic inputs from the same mossy fiber source (i.e., ‘unimodal’) may serve to filter noise by requiring the summation of inputs in order to fire action potentials (Jorntell and Ekerot, 2006; Ekerot and Jorntell, 2008; Bengtsson and Jorntell, 2009).”
