Confirmation of functional zones within the human subthalamic nucleus: Patterns of connectivity and sub-parcellation using diffusion weighted imaging (2012, background): “The presence of cerebellar connections, which were absent in this study and second order connections via the pontine nuclei (Bostan et al., 2010), indicate that perhaps some of their STN seeds additionally sampled the nearby fasciculus cerebellothalamicus (Aström et al.”
Consensus Paper: Towards a Systems-Level View of Cerebellar Function: the Interplay Between Cerebellum, Basal Ganglia, and Cortex (2016, background): “Furthermore, recent studies in monkeys have shown that the subthalamic nucleus sends a disynaptic projection to the cerebellar cortex by way of the pontine nuclei [13].”
The cerebellum in Parkinson’s disease (2013, background): “In a more recent study, Bostan et al. (2010) used retrograde transneuronal transport of the rabies virus to determine the origin of multi-synaptic inputs to the cerebellum.”
Cerebellar networks with the cerebral cortex and basal ganglia. (2013, background): “Moreover, recent findings have shown that the cerebellum and basal ganglia are densely interconnected [14, 15].”
