S1 Sensing the world • Sensory coding: sensory systems code for modality, intensity, location, and duration of external stimuli. • Transduction: the conversion of a physical stimulus into a change in membrane potential (electrochemical signal) – Signals are transmitted in the form of graded potentials, action potentials, and synaptic interaction • Receptors: cells or regions of cells that respond to specific stimuli and perform transduction – The process of sensory coding starts here – Specificity: receptors are often sensitive to specific stimuli; varies with receptor type S2 Changes of membrane potential depend on ion channels Reminder: leak channels are not gated. S3 Receptors for gustation 5 different types of receptor proteins (but not all in the same cell) Receptor proteins Receptor cell 1st order sensory neuron S4 Receptors for audition (hearing) and equilibrium (movement and orientation to gravity) Hair cells = specialized receptor cell with mechanically-gated K+ channels. Receptor cell 1st order sensory neuron Scanning electron micrograph of hair cells from the bullfrog inner ear, which contain the mechanically-gated ion channel TRPA1.

Encapsulated TZ TZ TZ S7 Somatosensory and the sensation of touch Skin is largest sense organ: up to 2 million receptors Sensory system must code for where (location), how hard (intensity), how long (duration), and modality (sense of touch, temperature, vibration, wet/dry, damage (pain; noxious)). S8 Somatosensory: sensation of touch, vibration, pain, and temperature “Adequate” stimulus: the stimulus type to which a receptor responds best (lowest threshold.) Deep Encapsulated nerve endings Superficial Sustained stimulus Fluctuating stimulus S9 This diagram is misleading: Different types of receptors are NOT part of the same sensory neuron! S 10 Labeled Lines: Different sensory modalities are transmitted separately along distinct pathways. S 11 Figure 7.15 Stimulus Localization & Modality & Intensity Three neurons to the cortex! Labeled Line S 12 Right side Anterolateral (spinothalamic) tract 1st order synapses onto 2nd order in spinal cord, 2nd order axon decussates in spinal cord, travels to thalamus in contralateral anterolateral tract, synpases onto 3rd order neuron in thalamus, which sends its axon to SSC. Right side Right side Dorsal column-medial lemniscal tract 1st order axons ascend in ipsilateral dorsal columns to synapses onto 2nd order in dorsal column nuclei of brainstem, 2nd order axon decussates in brainstem, travel to thalamus to synpases onto 3rd order neuron, which sends it axons to SSC. Right side Proprioception S 13 Somatotopy in the Somoatosensory Cortext (post-central gyrus.) Regions more densely innervated by sensory receptors occupy more cortical tissue.

Right side Dorsal column-medial lemniscal tract 1st order axons ascend in ipsilateral dorsal columns to synapses onto 2nd order in dorsal column nuclei of brainstem, 2nd order axon decussates in brainstem, travel to thalamus to synpases onto 3rd order neuron, which sends it axons to SSC. Right side Proprioception S 19 Receptor potentials e.g. somatosensory e.g. gustatory • Graded potentials are the result of transduction within a receptor. Transduction produces a receptor potential • Amplitude is usually in proportion to the stimulus intensity • Specialty receptor cells with no axon (visual, gustatory, auditory, and vestibular systems). The graded receptor potentials will directly change amount of NT secretion onto 1st order sensory neuron. • Receptors with axons (somatosensory and olfactory systems) have a trigger zone and receptor potentials generate action potentials S 20 Receptors and transduction Could be encapsulated Activation of mechanically gated channels S 21 Sensations to touch Mechanoreceptors contain receptor proteins that respond to stretching, distortion, or pressure on the peripheral plasma membrane
