Moser - positioning system in the brain (Nobel, 2014) Tononi, Boly, Massimini, Koch - theory of consciousness The levels of neuronal organization Divisions of the nervous system The nervous system is divided into the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system is divided into two parts: the brain and the spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system consists of sensory division and motor division. Sensory division consists of peripheral nerve fibers that send sensory information to the central nervous system. Motor division consists of nerve fibers that project to motor organs. Motor division is divided into two major parts: the somatic nervous system and the autonomic (visceral) nervous system. The somatic nervous system contains nerve fibers that project to skeletal muscle. The autonomic nervous system is divided into the sympathetic, parasympathetic and enteric nervous system. Functional brain areas Brainstem (pol. pień mózgu): most important part of the brain. Many motor and sensory nerves pass through it. It regulates cardiac and respiratory function. Reticular formation located in the brain stem regulates central nervous system, maintains consciousness and regulates sleep cycle. Injury to the reticular formation can result in irreversible coma. Midbrain (pol. śródmózgowie): controls muscle movement, eyes movement (eg. saccades) and hearing. Its largest nucleus substantia nigra - produces dopamine. Damage to this nucleus is linked to Parkinson's disease. Pons (pol. most): includes pathways that pass information from the brain to the cerebellum and includes nuclei regulating sleep and dreaming (REM), respiration, swallowing, bladder control, hearing, equilibrium, taste, eye movement, facial expressions, facial sensation, and posture. Medulla (pol. rdzeń przedłużony): is responsible for involuntary functions: breathing, heart rate, blood pressure and reflexes: swallowing, vomiting, coughing, sneezing. Olivary nuclei in medulla are involved in sound source localization. Functional brain areas Cerebellum (pol. móżdżek): is responsible for motor planning, coordination, precision of movement and motor learning. It may also be involved in some cognitive functions (verbal working memory). Functional brain areas Thalamus (pol. wzgórze): relays motor and sensory signals (except smell) to the cerebral cortex. It is also involved in regulation of sleep and wakefulness. Functional brain areas Hypothalamus (pol. podwzgórze): maintains the body’s internal balance (homeostasis). It is responsible for behaviors such as hunger and thirst, as well as the maintenance of body temperature, sleep and circadian rhythm. It controls autonomic nervous system It also controls the pituitary gland, which is the master gland that controls all the other endocrine glands in the body. Thus, the hypothalamus connects the endocrine system with the nervous system. Functional brain areas Hippocampus (pol. hipokamp): is responsible for processing of long term memory and for the spatial navigation. It is part of the limbic system, which regulates emotional responses. Functional brain areas Lateral Ventricle (pol. komora boczna) is part of the ventricular system, which produces cerebrospinal fluid. The lateral ventricles (left and right) are the largest of the ventricles. Functional brain areas Basal Ganglia (basal nuclei) (pol. zwoje podstawy (jądra podstawy)) consist of multiple subcortical structures. They are involved mainly with voluntary movements. Caudate (pol. jądro ogoniaste) is involved with motor processes, procedural learning, inhibitory control of action. Functional brain areas Putamen (pol. skorupa): regulates movements and influences various types of learning. Functional brain areas Amygdala (pol. ciało migdałowate) is important part of the limbic system. It is responsible for emotional responses especially to threatening or dangerous stimuli. Functional brain areas White matter (pol. istota biała) is made up of myelinated axons which connect different brain regions. White matter gets its color from myelin, which insulates axons. Functional brain areas Gray Matter of Cerebral Cortex (pol. istota szara kory mózgu) consists mainly of neuronal cell bodies and non-neuron brain cells. Cerebral Cortex is evolutionary youngest and most complex structure of the brain. It is divided into four different lobes, the frontal, parietal, temporal, and and occipital, which are each responsible for processing different types of information. Occipital lobe (pol. płat potyliczny) is responsible for processing of visual information(color, shape, movement, depth). Temporal lobe (pol. płat skroniowy) is responsible for processing of auditory information and visual stimuli (object recognition). It also contains language area responsible for speech comprehension. Parietal lobe (pol. płat ciemieniowy) is responsible for touch, pain and temperature perception and for integration of sensory information among various modalities including spatial sense and body position. Frontal lobe (pol. płat czołowy) carries out higher mental processes such as thinking, decision making, and planning. It also contains primary motor cortex, which regulates movements. It also contains language area responsible for speech generation. The Neuron Doctrine Nerve cells in the cerebellum, as observed by Purkinje in 1837 A large motoneuron in the spinal cord, as observed by Deiters in 1865. Note the single axon (axis cylinder), dendrites and soma. The Neuron Doctrine Camillo Golgi (1843 - 1926) in his laboratory Golgi stain made nowodays Based on large number of connections between neurons Golgi assumed that the laws of signals transmission cannot be specified and he proposed the reticular theory. Original Golgi stain The Neuron Doctrine Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852 – 1934) Cajal developed the Golgi method and applied it to many parts of the nervous system in many animal species. He realized that the entitiy stained by the method is the entire nerve cell and he proposed that nervous system is composed of separate cells. Retina. Cajal’s drawing (1900) The Neuron Doctrine Wilhelm Waldeyer, a profesor of anatomy and pathology in Berlin published in 1891 a review in medical journal, stating that the cell theory applies to nervous system as well. He suggested the term ‘neuron’ for the nerve cell and the theory became known as the ‘neuron doctrine’ Heinrich Wilhelm von Waldeyer-Hartz (1836-1921) The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1906 The Neuron Human brain consists of 100 000 000 000 (1011) neurons making in total about 1000 000 000 000 000 (1015) connections. Typical neuron consists of : 1. Cell body 2. Dendrites 3. Axon 4. Presynaptic terminals Neuron types and size Unipolar neurons Bipolar neurons Axon diameter 0,004 mm - 100 microns (.1 mm) Hair diameter 0,02 mm do 0,08 mm. Multipolar neurons Axon length 1 mm - above 1 m In human: About 1011 neurons in the brain (Each neuron has about 104 connections) Total length of neurons A = 180 000 km Earth – Moon distance L = 380 000 km A/L ~ 1/2 Neuron terminology Nerve cells which have long fibers that connect to other regions of the nervous system are called projection neurons, principal neurons or relay cells. Nerve cells which are contained wholly within one region of the nervous system are called intrinsic neurons or interneurons. Interneurons may not have an axon. Dendrites - terminology Neurons usually have a single axon and many dendrites. Dendrites may be apical or basal. The basal dendrites emerge from the base and the apical dendrites from the apex of the pyramidal cell body. Neuroglia (glia) Glial cells Glial cells are non-neuronal cells that provide support and protection for neurons. Neuroglial cells are generally smaller than neurons and outnumber them by five to ten times. Glial types and functions •Astrocytes: biggest and largest in number. They surround neurons and hold them in place. They supply nutrients and oxygen to neurons. They regulate chemical composition of extracellular space by removing excess ions, notably potassium. They regulate neurotransmission by recycling neurotransmitters released during synaptic transmission and by surrounding synapses and preventing diffusion of neurotransmitters. •Microglia: They destroy pathogens and remove dead neurons. • Oligodendrocytes: They coat axons in the CNS with their cell membrane forming a specialized membrane called myelin sheath. The myelin sheath provides insulation to the axon that allows electrical signals to propagate more efficiently •Schwann cells: Similar in function to oligodendrocytes, Schwann cells provide myelination to axons in the PNS. SM (sclerosis multiplex) - a disease in which oligodendrocytes are destroyed resulting in a thinning or complete loss of myelin causing neurons not to be able to effectively conduct electrical signals. Albert Einstein’s brain Einstein’s brain was removed within seven and a half hours of his death and was preserved for scientific studies. Einstein's brain weighed only 1,230 grams, which is less than the average adult male brain (about 1,400 grams). One of the differences that were found between Einstein’s brain compared to others was increased number of glial cells. It is known from animal studies that as we go from invertebrates to other animals and primates, as intelligence increases, so does the ratio of glial cells to neurons. It is hypothesized that glial cells (astrocytes) could communicate and transmit chemical signals throughout the brain. EEG measurement from Albert Einstein. Princeton, 1950
