extroceptors
external evironment
propioceptors
skeletal muscle/joint position
interoceptors
visceral organs
nociceptors
pain; includes thermoceptors, mechanoreceptors, chemoreceptors
2 types nociceptor neurotransmitters?
gentamate or substance P
fast pain
what fibre type?
(cut, shot) myelinated Type A fibres
slow pain
stimulates?
(burning, aching)reticular formation of thalamus
what reduces pain?
endorphins, enkephalins
tonic receptor
peripheral adaptations does not occur; continuous stimulation
phasic receptors
1 ex?
peripheral adaptation occurs(thermoreceptors)
mechanoreceptor (how does it work?)
distoriton of cell membranes, ion regulated ion channels open/close response to compreion, stretching
mechanoreceptors (3 types)
1.tactile receptors (1.fine touch or 2.crude touch)
2.baroreceptors: pressure changes in blood, digest.,reprod, lung...
3.propioceptors:joint/muscle position (dont adapt to constant stimuli)
chemoreceptors (where?) What?
carotid bodies of neck and aortic bodies
ph and co2
first order neuron
where is cell body?
delivers sensation to CNS, cell body in dorsal root ganglion, synapses on 2nd order
second order neuron
where?
what kind of sensation?
synapses on?
...which is called?
in s.c. or brainstem;
if concious sens. synapse on 3rd (decussation)
2nd order neuron synapses on 3rd order neuron
decussation occurs: crosses to opposite side of CNS
third order neuron
synapses on?
synapses on primary sensory cortex
somatic sensory pathways
info from skin, musculature of body wall, head , neck limbs
posterior column pathway
carries what info?
enters where?
sorted by?
fine touch;axons enter medial lemniscus tract, sorted by 1. nature of stimulus and 2. body region involved
anterolateral pathway
info?
synapses?
crude touch;synapse on 2nd order in grey horns, cross s.c.
anterior spinothalamic tracts
crude touch and pressure
lateral spinothalamic tracts
info?
pain, temp sensations
mechanoreceptor (how does it work?)
distoriton of cell membranes, ion regulated ion channels open/close response to compreion, stretching
mechanoreceptors (3 types)
1.tactile receptors (1.fine touch or 2.crude touch)
2.baroreceptors: pressure changes in blood, digest.,reprod, lung...
3.propioceptors:joint/muscle position (dont adapt to constant stimuli)
chemoreceptors (where?) What?
carotid bodies of neck and aortic bodies
ph and co2
first order neuron
delivers sensation to CNS, cell body in dorsal root ganglion, synapses on 2nd order
referred pain
false pain felt at specific part of body (ex. heart attack, left arm)
somatic nervous system
skeletal muscle contraction, at least 2 motor neurons
involves?
upper motor neruon
cell body where?
synapses?
cell body in CNS processing center; synapses on lower motor neuron
lower motor neuron
have cell bodies where?
cell body in nucleus of brain stem or s.c.
corticospinal pathway
voluntary control over skel. muscles; upper muscles synapse on lower motor neurons
2 pairs of corticospinal descending tracts
1.corticobulbar tract
2. corticospinal tract
cerebral palsy
# of disorder that affect voluntary motor preformance
where do motor neurons of ANS synapse?
on visceral motor neurons of automtic ganglia
sympathetic division of ANS?
2 types sym. chain ganglia?
prepares for heightened leves of somatic activity (sympathetic chain ganglia: short pregangliotic fibres, long postgangliotic)
parasympathetic division fo ANS
conserves energy
white ramus
carries what? where?
cariies myelinated pregangliotic fibres into sym. chain ganglia
sypathetic receptors (2 types)
stimulated by?
alpha (by nonephinephrine, epiniphrine)
beta (by epinephrine on cell membranes in organs)
G proteins
include?
stimulation depends on?
alpha nd beta receptors (stimulation depends on second messenger production)
alpha receptors (2 types)
alpha-1- releases CA2+ ions..exitatory effect
alpha-2-lowers cyclic AMP...inhibitory effect
beta receptors (3 types)
B1-increast metabolic activity
B2-inhibitions, smooth mmuscle relax
B3-lipolysis in adipose
adregnergic
release nonepinephrine
cholinergic
release?
innervates?
release ACh (lasts longer than NE, innervates sweat glands, blood vessels)
nitroxidergic synapses
increases bloodflow
terminal ganglia of parasym. sys.
are where?
near target organ
intraneural ganglia of parasym. sys.
are where?
in tissues of organ
all parasym. neurons relase?
ACh

acetylcholinesterase AChE (or tissue cholinesterase once diffused)
nicotinic receptors
are where?
surface of ganglion cells of para/sym
