Q

Retrograde

A

– transport of organelles & molecules back to cell body

26
Q

Each branch has swollen end _______

A

– terminal bouton

27
Q

Distal end of axon is highly branched:

A

– terminal arborization

28
Q

Synapse has three components:

A
  1. Presynaptic terminal bouton
  2. Synaptic cleft
  3. Postsynaptic cell membrane
    (density or web)
29
Q
A
  1. Terminal Button
  2. Synaptic Vesiccle
30
Q
A
  1. Terminal Button
  2. Synaptic Vesiccle
  3. Synaptic Cleft
31
Q

Clinical correlation: botulism inhibits_______.

A

secretion of synaptic vesicles containing neurotransmitter (acetylcholine). Without synaptic vesicles, action potentials do not transfer to effector cells (e.g., skeletal muscle cells), resulting in paralysis.

32
Q

dendrites & unmyelinated axons of neurons + processes of glial cells

A

Neuropil

33
Q

Is Neuropil apart of the ECM

A

NO

34
Q
A

Neuropill
Dentrites
NOTE: Note: nervous tissue has sparse extracellular matrix

35
Q

CNS Glial Cells

A
  1. Astrocyte
  2. Ependymal cell
  3. Oligodendrocyte
  4. Microglia

AO ME

36
Q

Where is neuropill more prominate

A

Grey Matter CNS to allow of neuron - neuron synapses

37
Q

PNS Glial Cells

A

Schwann
Satellite Cells

38
Q

Where found

A

CNS
Astrocyte and Blood Vessle
MOST ABBUNDANT

Look at how astrocyte associates with BV and multiple neurons

39
Q

Describe Astrocytes

A

Cover the synapses to maintain microenviroment.
Process have broad end-feet
help contribute to the BBB

40
Q

Astrocytes have a specific Intermediate Filliament
What and its clincial corralation

A

Glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP)
astrocytomas are the most common form of brain tumor in adults. In those tumors, cells express GFAP indicating their origin from astrocytes.

41
Q
A

MacroPhage
MS is Auto ABY for mylein sheath. So they get phagocytose faster than repair

42
Q

CSF is made by ——- that line the ventricular system (brain) & central canal (spinal cord)

A

ependymal cells

43
Q

ependymal cells are ____(shape) with lots of _____ to help move CSF

A

Cuboidal and Cilila

44
Q

ependymal cells that are non-ciliated are associated with what part of the brain and make up what?

A

Ventricles and Secrete CSF

45
Q

A=
NP=
N=
O=

A

Astrocyte
Neuropili
Neuron
Oligodentrcyte Lots of golgi!!! Poor Staining

46
Q

Schwann cell (neurolemmocyte)

A

PNS
Derived from Neural Crest
Myleniate but only one portion of axon.

47
Q
A

Red=AXON
White=Myelin Covering
Myelin Covering is lipid rich so poor staining under LM
