The type of inhibition seen in cerebellum is: (A) Pre-synaptic inhibition, (B) Post-synaptic inhibition, (C) Renshaw-cell inhibition, (D) Feed forward inhibition
Answer is D. (D) Feed forward inhibition> Feed forward inhibition--Seen in cerebellum. Stimulation of basket cells produces IPSP (inhibitory post-synaptic potential) in Purkinje cells.> However, both these cells are excited by the same excitatory inputs.> This arrangement is called feed forward inhibition, presumably limits the duration of excitation produced by any afferent volley.
