, Chapter 1 Studying the Nervous System
Neuron doctrine:
- Neurons are discrete cells and not one continuum
- Neurons communicate via specialized contacts; synapses
- Information passes through the neuron in a certain direction: Dendrites (in) -> Soma ->
Axon (out)
2 types of cells in the brain:
- Nerve cells/neurons
o Electrical signals over long distances (up to one meter)
o by means of electrical action potentials
o Without loss of signal strength
o Computation
o Consist of axon and dendrites
o Axon terminal of presynaptic neuron is adjacent to postsynaptic receptor on
target cell
▪ Communicate via secretion of neurotransmitters (chemical synaps)
▪ Space between pre- and postsynaptic elements = synaptic cleft
o Local circuit neurons (interneurons) have relatively short axons
o Axons convey signals over long distance by action potentials
- Glial cells
o Structural support
o Metabolic support
o Myelin sheath surrounding axons
o Providing scaffolds
o Immune response
o Stem cells (limited in the brain) to repair nervous system damage
▪ Can give rise to new glia and new neurons
o Three types:
▪ Oligodendrocytes
- Wrap myelin around some axons in CNS > higher transmission
speed
▪ Schwann cells
- Wrap myelin around some axons in PNS
▪ Microglial cells
- Macrophages of the brain
Connectivity:
- Convergence: number of inputs
- Divergence: number of outputs/ targets
