14 NERVOUS SYSTEMS Three overlapping functions sensory input integration motor output Interconnected network of neurons
15 Overview of a vertebrate nervous system
16 Networks of neurons with intricate connections form nervous systems Neuron Structure and Synapses. The neuron is the structural and functional unit of the nervous system. Nerve impulses are conducted along a neuron. Dendrite cell body axon hillock axon Some axons are insulated by a myelin sheath.
17 Axon endings are called synaptic terminals. They contain neurotransmitters which conduct a signal across a synapse. A synapse is the junction between a presynaptic and postsynaptic cell.
18 Aplysia neuron
19 Types of Nerve Circuits. Single presynaptic neuron several postsynaptic neurons. Several presynaptic neurons single postsynaptic neuron. Circular paths. Presynaptic neurons muscles neuromuscular junctions
20 Types of neurotransmission 1. Electrical 2. Chemical
21 Every cell has a voltage, or membrane potential, across its plasma membrane A membrane potential is a localized electrical gradient across the membrane. Anions are more concentrated within a cell. Cations are more concentrated in the extracellular fluid. Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
22 Measuring Membrane Potentials. Fig. 48.6a An unstimulated cell usually have a resting potential of 70mV. Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
23 How a Cell Maintains a Membrane Potential? Cations K+ is the principal intracellular cation. Na+ is the principal extracellular cation. Anions Proteins, amino acids, sulfate, and phosphate are the principal intracellular anions. Cl is the principal extracellular anion. Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
24 The basis of the membrane potential Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
25 Types of gated ion channels Chemically gated ion channels open or close in response to a chemical stimulus. Voltage gated ion channels open or close in response to a change in membrane potential. Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
26 Graded Potentials: Hyperpolarization and Depolarization Graded potentials are changes in membrane potential Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
27 Hyperpolarization Gated K+ channels open K+ diffuses out of the cell the membrane potential becomes more negative. Fig. 48.8a Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
28 Depolarization Gated Na+ channels open Na+ diffuses into the cell the membrane potential becomes less negative. Fig. 48.8b Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
29 The Action Potential: All or Nothing Depolarization If graded potentials sum to 55mV a threshold potential is achieved. This triggers an action potential. Axons only. Fig. 48.8c Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
30 Step 1: Resting State. Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
31 Step 2: Threshold. Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
32 Step 3: Depolarization phase of the action potential. Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
33 Step 4: Repolarizing phase of the action potential. Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
34 Step 5: Undershoot. Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
35 Propagation of the action potential Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
36 Chemical or electrical communication between cells occurs at synapses Electrical Synapses Action potentials travel directly from the presynaptic to the postsynaptic cells via gap junctions. Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
37 Chemical Synapses More common than electrical synapses. Postsynaptic chemically gated channels exist for ions such as Na+, K+, and Cl. Depending on which gates open the postsynaptic neuron can depolarize or hyperpolarize. Brought about by binding of neurotransmitters released from the presynaptic terminal to the postsynaptically localized chemically gated channels Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

39 Fundamental currencies of the living cell DNA/RNA string of nucleotides nitrogenous base (four different bases pentose sugar and phosphate) Protein : string of amino acids (20 different amino acids) secondary, tertiary and quarternary structures DNA RNA Protein R NH2 (CH)n COOH
40 Excitatory neurotransmission Positive event brings about membrane depolarization action potential generation an action happening Major excitatory neurotransmitter in the CNS: glutamate Glutamate receptors : Ionotrophic (Na+ channel coupled) functional receptor complex is multimeric Three different types: Kainate, AMPA and NMDA receptors Diseases : conitnous firing excitotoxicity neuronal death in stroke, epilepsy
41 Inhibitory neurotransmission Hyperpolarization modulates no action potential generation Inhibitory anion : Cl Inhibitory neurotransmitter : GABA gamma aminobutyric acid GABAA receptor complex pentameric several types of subunits: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and rho subunit subtypes. Have modulatory sites anesthetics, antianxiety drugs

44 Integration of multiple synaptic inputs
45 Summation: graded potentials (EPSPs and IPSPs) are summed to either depolarize or hyperpolarize a postsynaptic neuron. Fig Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

47 Biological clock Emotions Learning and memory
48 Human brain
49 The Hypothalamus and Circadian Rhythms The biological clock is the internal timekeeper. The clock s rhythm usually does not exactly match environmental events. Experiments in which humans have been deprived of external cues have shown that biological clock has a period of about 25 hours. In mammals, the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) function as a biological clock. Produce proteins in response to light/dark cycles. This, and other biological clocks, may be responsive to hormonal release, hunger, and various external stimuli. Copyright 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
50 The limbic system (emotions)
51 Learning and memory Short term memory stored in the frontal lobes. The establishment of long term memory involves the hippocampus. The transfer of information from short term to long term memory is enhanced by repetition (remember that when you are preparing for an exam). Influenced by emotional states mediated by the amygdala. Influenced by association with previously stored information.
52 Synaptic signaling 1. Fast neurotransmission 2. Slow neurotransmission
53 Signal transduction: Mode of regulation Phosphorylation dephosporylation Second messenger : camp, calcium, IP3, cgmp

59 Learning and memory A Nobel laureate s perspective Eric Kandel
60 Selection of the problem: Learning and behavior easily tractable
61 Selection of the organism: less complicated easy to observe behavior and molecular events Selection of behavior: Memory storage behavior
62 Memory storage behavior Neural circuit Critical neurons Cellular and molecular changes in specific neurons
63 Aplasia marine snail
64 Model behavior Gill and siphon withdrawal upon tactile stimuli Aplasia neuron visible to naked eye
65 Types of memory Short term: lasts only minutes Long term: lasts for days By practice (timed repetition) Short term memory Long term memory
