1 Cerebellum

2 Developmental sequence of brain Fourth week Fifth week

3 Location of cerebellum Lies above and behind the medullar and pons and occupies posterior cranial fossa

4 Location of cerebellum

5 External structures Consists of two cerebellar hemispheres united in the midline by the vermis Primary fissure

6 External structures Lobules of cerebellum: Anterior lobe, posterior lobe, flocculonodular lobe. Posterolateral fissure

7 External structures Tonsil of cerebellum two elevated masses on inferior surface of hemispheric portion, just nearby foramen magnum Cerebellar tonsilar hernia

8 Internal structures Cerebellar cortex gray matter Granular layer, piriform (Purkinje) cell layer, molecular layer Cerebellar medulla white matter Superior / Middle / Inferior cerebellar peduncles Cerebellar nuclei gray matter within white matter Fastigial, globose, emboliform, dentate nuclei Interposed nucleus

9 Cerebellar cortex Molecular layer Piriform cell layer Granular layer White matter

10 Cerebellar nuclei Fastigial, globose, emboliform, dentate nuclei

11 Cerebellar peduncles

12 Cerebellar peduncles superior cerebellar peduncle (brachium conjunctivum) connects with midbrain, contain mostly efferent fibers middle cerebellar peduncle (brachium pontis) connects with pons, contain afferent fibers inferior cerebellar peduncle (restiform body) connects with medulla and with spinal cord, contain both afferent and efferent fibers

13 Functional divisions of cerebellum Vestibulocerebellum Archicerebellum Flocculonodular lobe Spinocerebellum Paleocerebellum Vermis and intermediate zone Cerebrocerebellum Neocerebellum Lateral zone Flocculonodular lobe Intermediate zone Vermis Lateral zone

14 Connections and functions of Vestibulocerebellum Connections cerebellum Afferents: receives inputs from vestibular nuclei and vestibular ganglion Efferents: projects to the vestibular nucleus vestibulospinal tract and medial longitudinal fasciculus motor neurons of anterior horn and cranial nuclei innervating extraocular muscles

15 Function: regulation of eyeball movements and maintenance of body equilibrium.

16 Spinocerebellum Connections Afferents: receives somatic sensory information via spinocerebellar tracts Efferents: Vermis projects to the fastigial nucleus vestibular nuclei and reticular formation vestibulospinal tract and reticulospinal tract motor neurons of anterior horn Intermediate zone projects to the interposed nuclei Contralateral red nucleus rubrospinal tract motor neurons of anterior horn Contralateral VL of thalamus cerebral cortex coticospinal tract motor neurons of anterior horn

17 Function: modulate the muscular tension.

18 Cerebrocerebellum Connections Afferents: receives input from the cerebral cortex via a relay in pontine nuclei Efferents: projects to dentate nucleus VL of thalamus primary motor cortex corticospinal tract motor neurons of anterior horn

19 Function: modulate the coordination of voluntary and fineness movement, including determination of movement strength, direction and amplitude.

20 Cerebellar functions Cerebellum has functions of 1. maintaining body posture, 2. controlling muscular tension, 3. coordinating of voluntary movement, but NOT initiating and performing voluntary movement.

21 Cerebellar injury symptoms Typical signs of cerebellar injury: a. Ataxia: incoordination of voluntary movement b. Nystagmus: tremor of eyeball c. Intention tremor Nose-to-finger test

22 Diencephalon

29 Functional subdivision Non-specific projecting nuclei ---- receive afferents from olfactory brain and reticular formation of brain stem (ascending reticular activating system), project to hypothalamus, corpus striatum and diffusely to cerebral cortex. Midline nuclei Intralaminar nuclei Thalamic reticular nuclei Internuncial nuclei ---- receive a wide variety of afferent fibers and in turn project widely to association areas of cerebral cortex, involved in higher nervous activity of brain. Anterior nuclear group Medial nuclear group Dorsal layer of lateral nuclear group

30 Functional subdivision Specific relaying nuclei Ventral anterior nucleus (VA) Ventral lateral nucleus (VL) Receive inputs from corpus striatum, dentate nucleus, and substantia nigra, project to motor cortex to regulate body movement. Ventral posteromedial nucleus (VPM) -receives trigeminal lemniscus and taste fibers Ventral posterolateral nucleus (VPL) -receives medial lemniscus and spinal lemniscus Projects to primary somatic sensory area via central thalamic radiations
