THE BRAIN ATLAS 3 rd ed, p. 9! Mid-line (sagittal) section through central nervous system (CNS). Note the The different regions of the brain from the lateral (side) and median section (middle) human brain. These brain regions are discernable in in all vertebrates and in early embryos.!! (cerebral cortex = gold; thalamus = blue/purple; midbrain = orange; pons = purple, cerebellum = blue; medulla = red/orange; spinal cord = green)! relationship between vertebrae (BLACK), segments of the spinal cord (RED) and spinal nerves (YELLOW).! 3 4 1

2 Photograph of neurons stained by Golgi s method which fills processes of some cells with black precipitates of heavy metals and Nissl which stains all nuclei and neuronal cytoplasm blue.! 5 A neuron grown in tissue culture that is stained with antibodies for pre and post synaptic proteins. Red shows presynaptic and green shows postsynaptic localization. Yellow indicates close proximity of the two at synapses. This picture indicates the number, distribution and density of synapses on a nerve cell the role of which is to integrate information from many sources.! 6 Development 7 8 2
