Where are pre-sympathetic cell bodies located
|
intermediolateral cell column of T1-L2
|
|
What is the pathway of sympathetic axons
|
exit via anterior roots
go to spinal nerve then to white rami communicans to paravertebral ganglia |
|
Once pre-synaptic sympathetic axons reach paravertebral ganglia, what 4 things might it do?
|
1.synapse and exit
2. ascend, synapse, and exit 3. descend, synapse, and exit 4. exit without synapsing |
|
Post-synaptic sympathetic axons exit how when reaching somatic targets?
|
gray ramus where the travel in the anterior or posterior rami
|
|
Post-synaptic sympathetic axons exit how when reaching thoracic viscera?
|
via splanchnic cardiopulmonary n. where it joins the cardiopulmonary plexus
|
|
Where are presynaptic parasympathetic axons located?
|
dorsal vagal motor nuclei
|
|
What is the pathway of parasympathetic fibers reaching the heart?
|
1.descend via vagus nerves
2.join the cardiopulmonary plexus 3.synapse with post-synaptic axons in wall of heart and bronchi 4. SHORT post-synaptic axons extend to myocardium, smooth m., or glands |
|
Where are parasympathetic nicotinic receptors located and what NT do they bind?
|
Ach, and they are located in ganglia
|
|
Where are parasympathetic muscarinic receptors located and what NT do they bind?
|
Ach, located on effector organ
|
|
Where are the sympathetic nicotinic receptors located and what NT do they bind?
|
Ach, located in ganglion
NE, located in adrenal medulla |
|
Visceral non-painful stimuli travel backwards via?
|
parasympathetic nerves to CNS
|
|
Pathway for visceral pain stimuli
|
cardiopulmonary plexus
cardiopulmonary splanchnic n. paravertebral ganglia white ramus spinal n. posterior root posterior horn of SC |
|
What is the basis for referred pain?
|
some collateral axons from visceral afferent axons synapse on nearby 2nd order somatic afferent cells, which causes confusion in the brain
