Chapter 15: The Autonomic Nervous System Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. General Properties of the ANS (Visceral Motor System) Motor nervous system that controls glands, cardiac & smooth muscle Regulates unconscious processes that maintain homeostasis blood pressure, body temperature, respiratory airflow Involved with visceral reflexes ANS carries out its actions without our intent (automatically) biofeedback techniques- training that teaches some people to control hypertension, stress and migraine headaches. Components: Autonomic sensory neurons (interoceptors) Integrating centers in CNS Autonomic motor to effectors Visceral Reflex to High Blood Pressure High BP detected by arterial stretch receptors, signal transmitted to CNS, efferent signals travel to the heart, heart slows reducing BP Separate reflex arc for low BP exists Comparison of Somatic and Autonomic Nervous Systems Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. ________ ___________ Anatomy of Autonomic Motor Pathways Two divisions: Sympathetic (fight-or-flight) & Parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) Two neurons from CNS to effector organ are involved: Preganglionic neuron (cell body in CNS - B fiber) Postganglionic neuron (entirely outside CNS, cell body in autonomic ganglion) – terminates on visceral effector Note : the Somatic motor division lacks ganglia entirely Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Preganglionic neurons Sympathetic division has cell bodies in the lateral horns of the gray matter in T1-12 and L1,2 and sometimes 3. Axonal output referred to as thoracolumbar outflow Parasympathetic division has cell bodies in cranial nerves III, VII, IX, and X and in the gray horns of S2-4. Axonal output referred to as craniosacral outflow. Pathway from Spinal Cord to Sympathetic Trunk Ganglia Lateral Gray Horns - Intervetebral foramina - Preganglionic axons → anterior root of a spinal nerve → white ramus → sympathetic trunk ganglion. White rami communicantes: structures containing sympathetic preganglionic axons that connect the anterior ramus of the spinal nerve with the ganglia of the sympathetic trunk. Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Sympathetic ganglia Sympathetic trunk/paravertebral/vertebral chain ganglia lie in a vertical row close to both sides of the vertebral column from the base of skull to coccyx Superior, middle and inferior cervical ganglia Postganglionic neurons innervate organs above diaphragm. Prevertebral/collateral ganglia lie anterior to vertebral column and close to abdominal arteries. Celiac, superior and inferior mesenteric ganglia Postganglionic neurons innervate organs below the diaphragm. Parasympathetic ganglia Terminal ganglia are located close to area within wall of the visceral organ. Ciliary ganglion Pterygopalatine ganglion Submandibular ganglion Otic ganglion Axons are longer than those found in the sympathetic division. Sympathetic postganglionic neurons Preganglionic neurons connect to postganglionic neurons in the following ways: Preganglionic neuron synapses with postganglionic neuron in first ganglion it reaches Preganglionic neuron ascends or descends to another ganglion along sympathetic chain before synapsing with postganglionic neuron. An axon may project through a ganglion and synapse with a postglanglionic neuron in one of the prevertebral ganglia. Preganglionic sympathetic fibers synapse on the adrenal medulla. A single sympathetic preganglionic fiber has many axon collaterals and may synapse with 20 or more postganglionic neurons. (Diverging circuits) The postganglionic axons typically terminate in several visceral effectors and therefore the effects of sympathetic stimulation are more widespread than the effects of parasympathetic stimulation Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Parasympathetic postganglionic neurons Axons of preganglionic neurons project to visceral effectors and synapse on 4-5 postganglionic neurons supplying a single visceral organ. Autonomic plexuses Made up a tangled web of ganglia and axons (sympathetic & parasympathetic) found close to major arteries. Cardiac plexus—heart Pulmonary plexus—pulmonary branches Celiac plexus—celiac and mesenteric arteries, liver, gall bladder, pancreas, stomach, spleen, and kidneys & adrenal medulla Superior & Inferior Mesenteric plexus—large and small intestines Hypogastric plexus—pelvic viscera (urinary bladder & genital organs Renal plexus—kidneys and ureters Autonomic Plexuses in the Thorax, Abdomen and Pelvis Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Pathways from Sympathetic Trunk Ganglia to Visceral Effectors 1. 2. 3. 4. Axons leave the sympathetic trunk in 4 possible ways: - spinal nerves - cephalic periarterial nerves - sympathetic nerves - splanchnic nerves Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Spinal nerves Gray ramus: Axons of some postganglionic neurons leave the sympathetic trunk by entering a short pathway called a gray ramus and merge with the anterior ramus of a spinal nerve. Gray rami communicantes: structures containing sympathetic postganglionic axons that connect the ganglia of the sympathetic trunk to spinal nerves. Serve skin in neck, trunk, limbs, sweat glands, and arrector pili Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Postganglionic neurons in the Sympathetic Division Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Cephalic Periarterial Nerves Some sympathetic preganglionic neurons that enter the sympathetic trunk ascend to the superior cervical ganglion where they synapse with postganglionic neurons. Some of these leave the sympathetic trunk by forming cephalic periarterial nerves. Serve visceral effectors in the skin of the face and head. Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Sympathetic Nerves Some axons of the postganglionic neurons leave the trunk by forming sympathetic nerves. Innervate the heart and lungs. Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Splanchnic Nerves to the Adrenal Medulla Some sympathetic preganglionic axons pass, without synapsing, through the sympathetic trunk, greater splanchnic nerves and celiac ganglion into the adrenal medulla (modified sympathetic ganglia). Release hormones into blood- 80% epinephrine, 20% norepinephrine, w/ some dopamine. Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Splanchnic Nerves continued.. Some sympathetic preganglionic axons pass through the sympathetic trunk without terminating in it. Beyond the trunk they form nerves called splanchnic nerves which extend to prevertebral ganglia. T5-T9 or T10- Greater splanchnic nerve. (serves: stomach, spleen, liver, kidneys, and small intestines) T10-T11- Lesser splanchnic nerve. (serves: blood vessels of small intestine and proximal colon) L1-L4- Lumbar splanchnic nerve. Terminate in the inferior mesenteric ganglion Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Cranial Parasympathetic Outflow The cranial outflow has four pairs of ganglia and are associated with the vagus nerve. 1. 2. 3. 4. Ciliary ganglia-muscle fibers in eye ball Pterygopalatine ganglia-membranes and glands of head Submandibular ganglia-sublingual salivary glands Otic ganglia-parotid salivary glands Vagus nerve carries nearly 80% of the total craniosacral flow. Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Sacral Parasympathetic Outflow Consists of S2-S4. Pelvic splanchnic nerves (serve: smooth muscle and glands in colon, ureters, urinary bladder, and reproductive organs) Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Cholinergic neurons include1. All sympathetic and parasympathetic preganglionic neurons. 2. Sympathetic postganglionic neurons that innervate most sweat glands. 3.
