AbstractCerebellar Purkinje cells mediate accurate eye movement coordination. However, it remains unclear how oculomotor adaptation depends on the interplay between the characteristic Purkinje cell response patterns, namely tonic, bursting, and spike pauses. Here, a spiking cerebellar model assesses the role of Purkinje cell firing patterns in vestibular ocular reflex (VOR) adaptation. The model captures the cerebellar microcircuit properties and it incorporates spike-based synaptic plasticity at multiple cerebellar sites. A detailed Purkinje cell model reproduces the three spike-firing patterns that are shown to regulate the cerebellar output. Our results suggest that pauses following Purkinje complex spikes (bursts) encode transient disinhibition of targeted medial vestibular nuclei, critically gating the vestibular signals conveyed by mossy fibres. This gating mechanism accounts for early and coarse VOR acquisition, prior to the late reflex consolidation. In addition, properly timed and sized Purkinje cell bursts allow the ratio between long-term depression and potentiation (LTD/LTP) to be finely shaped at mossy fibre-medial vestibular nuclei synapses, which optimises VOR consolidation. Tonic Purkinje cell firing maintains the consolidated VOR through time. Importantly, pauses are crucial to facilitate VOR phase-reversal learning, by reshaping previously learnt synaptic weight distributions. Altogether, these results predict that Purkinje spike burst-pause dynamics are instrumental to VOR learning and reversal adaptation.Author SummaryCerebellar Purkinje cells regulate accurate eye movement coordination. However, it remains unclear how cerebellar-dependent oculomotor adaptation depends on the interplay between Purkinje cell characteristic response patterns: tonic, high-frequency bursting, and post-complex spike pauses. We explore the role of Purkinje spike burst-pause dynamics in VOR adaptation. A biophysical model of Purkinje cell is at the core of a spiking network model, which captures the cerebellar microcircuit properties and incorporates spike-based synaptic plasticity mechanisms at different cerebellar sites. We show that Purkinje spike burst-pause dynamics are critical for (1) gating the vestibular-motor response association during VOR acquisition; (2) mediating the LTD/LTP balance for VOR consolidation; (3) reshaping synaptic efficacy distributions for VOR phase-reversal adaptation; (4) explaining the reversal VOR gain discontinuities during sleeping.
