11.1: Introduction
• The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord.
• The brainstem connects the brain to the spinal cord.
• Communication to the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is by way of the spinal cord.
4
11.2: Meninges• The meninges
• Membranes of CNS• Protect the CNS• Three (3) layers:
• Dura mater• “Tough mother”• Venous sinuses• Falx
• Arachnoid mater• “Spiderweb-like”• Space contains cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
• Pia mater• “Faithful mother”• Encapsulates blood vessels

11.3: Ventricles and Cerebrospinal Fluid
• There are four (4) ventricles• The ventricles are interconnected cavities within cerebral hemispheres and brain stem• The ventricles are continuous with the central canal of the spinal cord• They are filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
• The four (4) ventricles are:• Lateral ventricles (2)
• Known as the first and second ventricles
• Third ventricle• Fourth ventricle
• Interventricular foramen• Cerebral aqueduct

Cerebrospinal Fluid
• Secreted by the choroid plexus (Can you recall the specific cells?)• Circulates in ventricles, central canal of spinal cord, and the subarachnoid space• Completely surrounds the brain and spinal cord• Excess or wasted CSF is absorbed by the arachnoid villi (And where are these located?)• Clear fluid similar to blood plasma• Volume is only about 120 ml.• Nutritive and protective• Helps maintain stable ion concentrations in the CNS

Spinal Nerve Injuries

11.7: Autonomic Nervous System
• Functions without conscious effort• Controls visceral activities• Regulates smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands• Efferent fibers typically lead to ganglia outside of the CNS
• Two autonomic divisions regulate:• Sympathetic division (speeds up)
• Prepares body for ‘fight or flight’ situations• Parasympathetic division (slows down)
• Prepares body for ‘resting and digesting’ activities
82
Autonomic Nerve Fibers
• All of the neurons are motor (efferent)
• Preganglionic fibers• Axons of preganglionic neurons• Neuron cell bodies in CNS
• Postganglionic fibers• Axons of postganglionic neurons• Neuron cell bodies in ganglia

Sympathetic Division
• Thoracolumbar division – location of preganglionic neurons
• Preganglionic fibers leave spinal nerves through white rami and enter paravertebral ganglia
• Paraverterbral ganglia and fibers that connect them make up the sympathetic trunk

Sympathetic Division
• Postganglionic fibers extend from sympathetic ganglia to visceral organs
• Postganglionic fibers usually pass through gray rami and return to a spinal nerve before proceeding to an effector
• Exception: preganglionic fibers to adrenal medulla do not synapse with postganglionic neurons

Parasympathetic Division
• Craniosacral division – location of preganglionic neurons
• Ganglia are near or within various organs
• Terminal ganglia
• Short postganglionic fibers
• Continue to specific muscles or glands
• Preganglionic fibers of the head are included in nerves III, VII, and IX
• Preganglionic fibers of thorax and abdomen are parts of nerve X

Autonomic Neurotransmitters
• Cholinergic fibers• Release acetylcholine• Preganglionic sympathetic and parasympathetic fibers• Postganglionic parasympathetic fibers
• Adrenergic fibers• Release norepinephrine• Most postganglionic sympathetic fibers

Actions of AutonomicNeurotransmitters
• Result from binding to protein receptors in the membrane of effector cells:
• Cholinergic receptors• Bind to acetylcholine (Ach)• Muscarinic
• Excitatory • Slow
• Nicotinic• Excitatory• Rapid
• Adrenergic receptors• Bind to epinephrine and norepinephrine• Alpha and beta
• Both elicit different responses on various effectors
90
Terminating Autonomic Neurotransmitter Actions
• The enzyme acetylcholinesterase rapidly decomposes the acetylcholine that cholinergic fibers release.
• Norepinephrine from adrenergic fibers is removed by active transport.
91
Control of Autonomic Activity
• Controlled largely by CNS
• Medulla oblongata regulates cardiac, vasomotor and respiratory activities
• Hypothalamus regulates visceral functions, such as body temperature, hunger, thirst, and water and electrolyte balance
• Limbic system and cerebral cortex control emotional responses
92
11.8: Lifespan Changes
• Brain cells begin to die before birth• Over average lifetime, brain shrinks 10%• Most cell death occurs in temporal lobes• By age 90, frontal cortex has lost half its neurons• Number of dendritic branches decreases• Decreased levels of neurotransmitters• Fading memory• Slowed responses and reflexes• Increased risk of falling• Changes in sleep patterns that result in fewer sleeping hours
