8 Neurophilosophy mind/body Glia and Neurons?? Relationship between mind and brain Neuroglia (glia) Insulates, supports, and nourishes neurons Electrical and chemical functionality Neurons: Primary processors of neural information Sense environmental changes Communicate changes to other neurons Command body response
9 Nervous system components: Neurons Neuroglia Vascular endothelium Primary processors of neural signals Support the electrical and chemical functions of neurons Involved in the blood supply to brain tissue
10 Small size Difficult to study Neuron size range: mm Histology Microscopic study of tissue Cytoarchitecture important for understanding function and gross anatomy Tissue preparation Visualization levels light and electron Histochemistry Fiber tract tracing Identification of receptor types Mapping distribution of a particular gene
11 Named for German neurologist: Franz Nissl ( ) Methylene blue Cresyl violet Neutral red Toluidine blue (cationic dyes) Nissl bodies/substance = cytoplasmic granules in neuronal soma By 1950 s Nissl bodies are aggregations of rough ER Staining the high concentrations of rrna Good for distinguishing neurons from glia more rough ER in neurons Great to visualize the cytoarchitecture of neurons in different brain regions Under pathological conditions Nissl bodies dissolve or disappear (chromatolysis.) Nissl stain Image from Wikipedia (top) Nissl-stained horizontal section through the mouse hippocampus showing various classes of cells (neurons and glia).
12 Soak the brain in silver chomate solution only a small percentage of neurons become darkly colored in their entirety. The gain in brain is mainly in the stain!

14 Golgi v. Ramón y Cajal Reticular Theory Golgi Continuous syncytial network Nerve fibers, dendrites and neuronal cells directly connected to each other by cytoplasmic bridges Neuronal cell bodies provide nourishment. Ironically, Golgi stain led to demise of theory Neuron Doctrine Ramón y Cajal Neurons are not continuous Neurons communicate by contact, not continuity Golgi stain identification of subcellular units of the neuron Soma Axon Dendrite Circuitry Electron microscopy Synapse (not gap junctions) Neurons were not continuous Same data; different conclusion.
15 This drawing by Santiago Ramon y Cajal first appeared in volume two, part two of Cajal's Textura del Sistema Nervioso del Hombre y de los Vertebrados, published in Madrid in The image shows the six layers of the mouse neocortex, labeled A through F, in Cajal's hand. Cajal's drawings provided the foundation of modern neuroanatomy by showing that the nervous system is composed of individual nerve cells, as opposed to a web of continuous elements History of Neurosciene

31 Many lines of evidence suggest that mitochondria have a central role in ageingrelated neurodegenerative diseases. Mitochondria are critical regulators of cell death, a key feature of neurodegeneration. Mutations in mitochondrial DNA and oxidative stress both contribute to ageing, which is the greatest risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. In all major examples of these diseases there is strong evidence that mitochondrial dysfunction occurs early and acts causally in disease pathogenesis. Moreover, an impressive number of disease-specific proteins interact with mitochondria. Thus, therapies targeting basic mitochondrial processes, such as energy metabolism or free-radical generation, or specific interactions of disease-related proteins with mitochondria, hold great promise.
32 Major psychiatric illnesses such as mood disorders and schizophrenia are chronic, recurrent mental illnesses that affect the lives of millions of individuals. Although these disorders have traditionally been viewed as neurochemical diseases, it is now clear that they are associated with impairments of synaptic plasticity and cellular resilience. Although most patients with these disorders do not have classic mitochondrial disorders, there is a growing body of evidence to suggest that impaired mitochondrial function may affect key cellular processes, thereby altering synaptic functioning and contributing to the atrophic changes that underlie the deteriorating long-term course of these illnesses.

36 Microfilament Braids of two thin strands of actin Important role in cell shape also anchored to the membrane run longitudinally down the core of a neurite
37 Check your understanding? What are the functions of each of the following structures: Nucleus, mitochondria, rough ER, synaptic vesicle, Golgi apparatus, MAP, neurofilament, microtubules, microfilament Which are specialized for neurons?
38 In the case of neurodegenerative tauopathies a group of disorders that includes Alzheimer s disease (AD) and the frontotemporal dementias (FTDs) neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) twisted ribbons or other conformations of aberrantly phosphorylated forms of the microtubule associated protein (MAP) tau are the diagnostic hallmark lesions in the CNS. Moreover, added complexity may come from the fact that, aside from its well-established role in promoting the stabilization of microtubules (MTs), tau may have additional functions as a result of its interactions with other structures and enzymes Ballatore, C., et al (2007) nature reviews neuroscience volume 8
39 Figure 1 Direct and indirect pathological events that can contribute to tau-mediated neurodegeneration. Pathological events that can contribute to tau-hyperphosphorylation and detachment from microtubules are shown in the box on the left. The middle box shows the mechanisms that underlie the loss of normal function and toxic gain-of-function of tau, which ultimately result in impaired axonal transport and lead to synaptic dysfunction and neurodegeneration (right hand box). Aβ, amyloid-β; MT, microtubule; NFT, neurofibrillary tangle. Ballatore, C., et al (2007)
