Neuro Block 1 Flashcards
myelinating oligodendrocytes
in white matter
myelinate CNS axons
satellite oligodendrocytes
gray metter next to soma
regulate ECF
recruited ot migrate to axons
astrocytes
form blood brain barrier
interdigitate form glia limitans on CNS surface
form scar after brain injury
composition of blood brain barrier
endothelial cells of blood vesselss
astrocytes
if either of these breakdown you get neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration
astrocytes glia limitans
superficialis - around arteries, penetrating arteries, arterioles
perivascularis - around capillaries
parenchymal microglia
slowly replenished by circulating monocytes from bone marrow
gray and white matter and migratory
when activated can become phagocytic to consume damaged tissue (primary magrophage response)
blood borne monocytes
in perivascular space/choroid plexus
major antigen presenting cell of CNS
secondary macrophage response
ependymal cells
ciliated columnar cells lining ventricals and spinal canal
seperate CSF from CNS
continuous with and give rise to choroid plexus
choroid epithelial cells have tight junctions to create blood CSF barrier
corpus callosum parts
rostrum, genu, body, splenium
diencephalon
anterior commissure
lamina terminalis
optic chiasm
hypothalamus
mammillary bodies
thalamus
midbrain
tegmentum with cerebral peduncles
tectum colliculi
lateral ventricle parts
anterior horn (frontal lobe)
body (frontal/parietal lobe)
posterior horn (occipital lobe)
trigone (btwn temporal, occipital, parietal lobe)
inferior horn (temporal lobe)
flow of CSF
made in choroid plexus (atrium of lateral ventricles)
flow through interventricular foramina to third ventricle
flow through cerebral aqueduct to fourth ventricle
flow through lateral and median aperture to subarachnoid space
CSF flows through arachnoid granulations to superior sagital sinus
subarachnoid cisterns
lamina terminalis
chiasmatic
interpeduncular (infront of midbrain)
prepontine (infront of pons)
ambient (over midbrain)
superior (quadrageminal) - between midbrain, cerebellum, corpus callosum
cerebellopontine (on pons)
lateral cerebellomedullary (on medulla)
dorsal cerebellomedullary (behind medulla below cerebellum)
brocas area (44, 45)
motor function of speech (frontal lobe)
wernickes ares (22)
understanding speech (temporal lobe)
cingulate gyrus
controls emotion
primary auditory cortex
temporal lobe
area 41
primary visual cortex
occipital lobe
area 17
primary somatosensory cortex
area 1,2,3
primary motor cortex
area 4
global apahasia
nt fluent, no comprehension, no repetition
transcortical (pericentral) aphasia
motor - like brocas but can repeat
sensory - like wernickes but can repeat
mixed - like global but can repeat
conduction aphasia
everything normal but cant repeat (arcuate fasiculus)
brain flexures
cervical
midbrain (cephalic)
pontine
telencephalic
cerebellar development
cerebellar plate (part of rhombic lip)
form flocculonodular lobe and posterolateral fissure first
then posterior lobe and primary fissure
then anterior lobe
eye development
from diencephalon
optic vesicle with lens placode
form optic cup (retina) and optic stalk (optic nerve)
pituitary development
from stomodeum in diencephalon
2 parts - neurohypophyseal diverticulum and hypophyseal diverticulum
neurophypophyseal diverticulum to infundibulum to posterior lobe
hypophyseal diverticulum to for ming stalk, rotate and join pars intermedia to form anterior pituitary
neurulation
ventricular zone with germinal cells, intermediate zone with differentiating cells, marginal zone with axons
mitosis happens in ventricular layer
ependymal cells stay in ventricular layer
glioblasts and neurons go to mantle layer
marginal layer is pia layer
INTERMEDIATE ZONE
anterior - basal plate (motor)
posterior - alar plate (sensory)
intermediate zone differentiation
sulcus limitans between each plate
near the sulcus limitans is visceral nerves
alar plate makes general somatic and general visceral afferent
basal plate makes general somatic and general visceral efferent
brainstem they more to have efferents medial and afferents lateral
cerebellar cortical development
cells from alar plate
cells move from ventricular zone to marginal zone on radial glia
start on bottom with intermediate germinal layer go up to form external germinal layer, drop off purkinje cells, go down dropping of granule cells
thalamic development
cells from alar plate
form outside in on radial glia cells
cerebral cortex development
form outside in on radial glia
thalamic nuclei
anterior - attachment/memory
VPL - very painful limbs
VPM - very painful mouth
hypothalamus nuclei
supraoptic - sensing osmotic
anterior - anterior cooling
suprachiasmatic - super clock
mammillary bodies - memory map
upper motor neurons
cell body in cerebral cortec
axon through cerebrum, brainstm, spinal cord
lesions - weakness, increased refled, increased tone
lower motor neurons
cell body in anterior horn
axons become part of peripheral nerve
lesion - weakness, atrophy, fasiculations, decreased reflex, decreased tone
motor neuron tract
primary motor cortex
posterior limb of internal capsule (face posterior, leg anterior)
midbrain basis pedunculi (leg posterior, face anterior)
pons anteriorly in corticospinal tract
medullary pyramids LCST (limbs) decussates, ACST (trunk) doesnt
spinal cord synapse in anterior horn and travel in lateral corticospinal tract (arm medial, leg lateral)
red neuron change
acute ischemia
cytoplasm acidic, loss of nissl staining
eventually neuron engulfed by macrophages
inclusions
accumulation and structural alteration of proteins
parkinsons - lewy bodies
alzheimers - neurofibrillary tangles
rabies - negri bodies
axon injury
wallerian degeneration - degeneration of axon distal to injury
chromatolysis - injury to proximal proteion can result in regenerative efforts, enlargement and rounding of cell body with peripheral displacement of nucleaus, dispersion of nissl substance
astrocytes response to injury
gliosis/astrocytosis - scarlike tissue in brain
oligodendroglia response to injury
loss of myelin/decreased myelin production
