What are Some Disorders Associated with Granule Cells?
Dysfunction or damage to granule cells can lead to several neurological disorders. For example, in the cerebellum, degeneration of granule cells can result in ataxia, a condition characterized by impaired balance and coordination. In the hippocampus, granule cell abnormalities are linked to epilepsy and various cognitive disorders. Research continues to explore the precise mechanisms by which granule cell dysfunction contributes to these conditions.
