Resting potential: Na+ outside the axon, K+ and large anions inside the axon. Separation of charges polarizes the cell and causes the resting potential. Figure 14.3a Generation of an action potential. 13 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System The nerve impulse: Action potential • Action potential – rapid change in the axon membrane that allows a nerve impulse to occur • Sodium gates open, letting Na+ in. • Depolarization occurs. • Interior of axon loses negative charge (-55 mV, then +35 mV). 14 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System The nerve impulse: Action potential • Potassium gates open, letting K+ out. • Repolarization occurs. • Interior of axon regains negative charge (-70 mV). • Wave of depolarization/repolarization travels down the axon. • Resting potential is restored by moving potassium inside and sodium outside. 15 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System The nerve impulse: Stimulus causes the axon to reach its threshold Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

Figure 14.3c Generation of an action potential. 17 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System The synapse • The synapse is a small gap between the sending neuron (presynaptic membrane) and the receiving neuron (postsynaptic membrane). • Transmission is accomplished across this gap by a neurotransmitter (e.g., ACh, dopamine, or serotonin). • Neurotransmitters are stored in synaptic vesicles in the axon terminals. 18 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System How does transmission across the synapse occur? • Nerve impulse reaches the axon terminal. • Calcium ions enter the axon terminal and stimulate the synaptic vesicles to fuse with the presynaptic membrane. • Neurotransmitters are released and diffuse across the synapse, where they bind with the postsynaptic membrane to inhibit or excite the neuron. 19 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System A synapse and how it functions Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

After an action potential arrives at an axon terminal (arrow), Ca2+ enters, and synaptic vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane of the sending neuron. Sending neuron Ca2+ axon of sending neuron axon terminal Synaptic vesicles enclose neurotransmitter. Synapse receiving neuron Receiving neuron Synaptic cleft 2. Neurotransmitter molecules are released and bind to receptors on the membrane of the receiving neuron. Receiving neuron neurotransmitter neurotransmitter receptor Na+ Figure 14.4 Signal transmission at the synapse. Receiving neuron ion channel 3. When an excitatory neurotransmitter binds to a receptor, Na+ diffuses into the receiving neuron, and an action potential begins. 20 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System Synaptic integration • Integration is the summation of the inhibitory and excitatory signals received by a postsynaptic neuron. • This occurs because a neuron receives many signals. 21 14.1 Overview of the Nervous System Synaptic integration Figure 14.5 Integration of excitatory and inhibitory signals at the synapse. 22 14.2 The Central Nervous System The central nervous system • The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord. • Both are protected by • Bones – skull and vertebral column • Meninges – 3 protective membranes that wrap around CNS • Cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) – space between meninges is filled with this fluid that cushions and protects the CNS 23 14.2 The Central Nervous System The central nervous system • Both the brain and spinal cord are made up of two types of nervous tissue. • Gray matter – contains cell bodies and nonmyelinated fibers • White matter – contains myelinated axons 24 14.2 The Central Nervous System The CNS: Spinal cord • It extends from the base of the brain and along the length of the vertebral canal formed by the vertebrae. • The spinal cord functions to provide communication between the brain and most of the body. • It is the center for reflex arcs. • Gray matter in the center is a butterfly shape. • White matter surrounds the gray matter. 25 14.2 The Central Nervous System What does the spinal cord look like?

Sympathetic division: coordinates the body for the “fight or flight” response by speeding up metabolism, heart rate, and breathing while slowing down and regulating other functions. 2. Parasympathetic division: counters the sympathetic system by bringing up a relaxed state by slowing down metabolism, heart rate, and breathing, and returning other functions to normal. 50 14.4 The Peripheral Nervous System The PNS: Autonomic division Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

They: – promote the action of a neurotransmitter. – interfere with or decrease the action of a neurotransmitter. – replace or mimic a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator. 52 14.5 Drug Therapy and Drug Abuse Drugs and drug abuse • Most drug abusers take drugs that affect dopamine and thus artificially affect this reward circuit to the point that they ignore basic physical needs in favor of the drug. • Drug abusers tend to show a physiological and psychological effect. • Once a person is physically dependent, they usually need more of the drug for the same effect because their body has become tolerant. 53 14.5 Drug Therapy and Drug Abuse Drug abuse: Alcohol • Alcohol – a depressant directly absorbed from the stomach and small intestine • Alcohol is the most socially accepted form of drug use. • About 80% of college-aged people drink. • Alcohol denatures proteins and causes damage to tissues such as the brain and liver; chronic consumption can damage the frontal lobe. • High blood alcohol levels can lead to poor judgment, loss of coordination, or even coma and death. 54 14.5 Drug Therapy and Drug Abuse Drug abuse: Nicotine • Nicotine – stimulant derived from tobacco plant • Nicotine stimulates neurons to release dopamine that reinforces dependence on the drug. • It adversely affects a developing embryo or fetus. • Smoking increases heart rate and blood pressure. • Nicotine causes psychological and physiological dependency. 55 14.5 Drug Therapy and Drug Abuse Drug abuse: Cocaine • Cocaine – stimulant derived from a shrub • Cocaine causes a rush sensation that lasts from 5-30 minutes. • A cocaine binge occurs when a user takes the drug at ever-higher doses, resulting in hyperactivity, little desire for food and sleep, and an increased sex drive. • There is extreme physical dependence with this drug. • “Crack” is the street name for cocaine that is processed to a free-base form for smoking. 56 14.5 Drug Therapy and Drug Abuse Drug abuse: Methamphetamine • Powder form is called speed and crystal form is called meth or ice. • It is a stimulant that reverses the effects of fatigue and is a mood elevator. • High agitation is common after the rush and can lead to violent behavior. • Methamphetamine causes psychological dependency and hallucinations. • “Ecstasy” is the street name for a drug that has the same effects as meth without the hallucinations. 57 14.5 Drug Therapy and Drug Abuse Drug abuse: Heroin • Heroin – depressant from the sap of the opium poppy plant • It leads to a feeling of euphoria and no pain because it is delivered to the brain and converted into morphine. • Side effects are nausea, vomiting, and depression of the respiratory and circulatory systems. • Heroin use can lead to HIV, hepatitis, and other infections due to shared needles. • Extreme dependency is common. 58 14.5 Drug Therapy and Drug Abuse Drug abuse: Marijuana • Marijuana – psychoactive drug derived from a hemp plant called Cannabis • It is most often smoked as a “joint.” • Occasional users experience mild euphoria, alterations to vision and judgment, as well as impaired motor coordination with slurred speech. • Heavy users may experience depression, anxiety, hallucinations, paranoia, and psychotic symptoms. • Long term use may lead to brain damage. • K2 (“Spice”) is a synthetic drug with higher potency than the active chemical in marijuana. 59
