How is somatic motor and visceral motor different in terms of
governed by:
viscceral-cortical and subcortical areas (hypothalamus)
lower motor neurons in somatic vs visceral
lower motor neurons:
somatic-cns
visceral - pns
synapses in somatic vs visceral

synapses- somatic-nmj, visc-varicosities
synaptic function in somatic vs visceral?
synaptic function-muscle contraction (somatic)
visceral - specific to tissue
How does the sympathetic innervate target tissues
noradrenergic
NS for parasympathetic
cholinergic
atropine?
inhibits PS innervation
What is the effect of the sympathetic on ureter and bladder?
relaxation of muscle wall and contraction of spinchter
what does sympathetic do to lacrimal gland?
tearing
sympathetic do to bronchi?
vasodilation and bronchial dilation
What does sympathethic do to insulin secretion
decrease it
Is there parasympathetic innervation to sweat and blood vessels in skin of head/neck and upper extremity? lower extremity?
no
What is the effect of PS on bronchi?
constrict and cause secretions
What is effect of PS and SYmp on eye? which constricts which dilates?
symp - dilates
parasymp - constricts and accomodates
IS there PS innervation to the adrenal gland?
no
What differentiates the enteric NS from other NS?
1) lots of NTs
2) can operate independently
3) myenteric and submucosa layers
Whats myenteric plexus function?
musclature
What is submucosal function?
chemical composition and grandular secretion
What is the difference between visceral sensation vs pain?
What-sensation - pressure, distention, etc, unconscious via reflexes
pain - burning, diffuse aching
How - use similar receptors but different pathways
What are the two categories for visceral sensation?
1) DRG
2) solitary nucleus
What is the DRG category for visceral sensation?
1) DRG
2) autonomic nerves
3) dorsal horn
4) solitary nucleus
What is IX and X for visceral sensation?
1) IX or X nerve
2) solitary nucleus
What are the visceral reflexes for CN IX
1) carotid body
2) carotid sinus
3) gag reflex
What is the visceral reflex for CN X?
1) cough reflex
2) vomiting reflex
How are reflexes modulated?
solitary nucleus relays information to higher order places which then act back
Whats the pathway?
sensory info
solitary nucleus
output
How does referred pain work?
visceral inputs cross with and synapse on to the somatic pain/temp pathway so you think you are having somatic pain
What is the dorsal column pathway for visceral pain?
1)DRG
2) dorsal columns
3) cross over midline at medial lemniscus
4) go up contralateral midbrain
5) insular cortex
What is the pathway for rise in BP?
1)receptor in carotid body and sinus
2) CN 9 or CN X
3) solitary nucleus
4) increase: symp stimulate noradrenergics in SA node
5) decrease: parasymp: increase cholinergic in SA which
What is regulation pathway for bladder function?
1) bladder muscle - parasymp
2) internal spinchter - symp
3) external - somatic
mild to moderate distention of mechanoreceptors stimulates symp and inhibits parasymp
-when bladder is full parasymp is activated and symp is inhibited
-eventually you can tell yourself to pee
How do you end up micturating whats that pathway?
1)prefrontal cortex says its ok and activates brainstem nuceli
2) brainstem is where micturation nuclei is
3)activate PS
4)inhibit symp
5)activate somatic neuron to release
Lesion in lumbar region?
parasympathethics cant help you contract bladder which causes infection
Lesion in brainstem?
lose prefrontal cortex to urinary systems and you have no control of what happens
What is the symptom of horner syndrome?
-pitosis
miosis
anhidrosis
Why do you get horner syndrome?
damage to sympathetics to the eye including upper eyelid, blood vessels in skin
Symptoms of adie pupil (3)
no acommodation
no constriction in one eye
no visual field defects
What is parasympathethic innervation of eye?
constricts the pupil so if its damaged you cant constrict ciliary muscles for accomodation or constrict the pupil
What are the symptoms of Reynaud's syndrome?
1) fingers and toes feel cold
2) portions of hand are white
3) bilateral cynosis of digits
What is the cause of Raynaud's disease?
malfunction of sympathetic vasculature within skin
What happens if you have a spinal cord lesion?
above C5- hyperactivity of reflexes
below L3-loss of PS and cant fully empty bladder
