Figure 8: Organization of the SVCC and VMC.

From: Identification of novel cellular clusters define a specialized area in the cerebellar periventricular zone

Figure 8

The drawing summarizes the organization of the peri- and subventricular zones in cerebellum. Top right, the SVCC is dorsally limited by the terminal feet of Bergmann glial cells (blue) and ventrally by multiciliated (yellow) and biciliated (orange) ependymal cells. Two capillaries are lateral to this structure (red). The glial cells (soft green) contact the blood vessels, as well as neurons (dark green) and myelinated axons (purple). Lower left, the VMC on the roof of the fourth ventricle is composed of two rows of biciliated cells (orange); fibers (purple) and glial cells (soft green) extend their processes towards two capillaries (red). The presence of pinwheel-like structures was also evidenced (yellow). Illustration by F. Serrano.
