This document provides an introduction to neurophysiology. It discusses the classification of the nervous system into the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system. Within the CNS, it is classified into grey matter and white matter. The basic structural and functional unit of the nervous system, the neuron, is described in detail. The structure and function of the synapse is also explained. Different types of neurons are classified. The composition of the nervous system includes neurons and supporting neuroglia cells. Various receptors and sensory systems are outlined. Important neurotransmitters are identified.
This document summarizes the neuromuscular transmission process, including the structure and function of the neuromuscular junction, the role of acetylcholine, and the effects of various drugs. It describes how motor neurons innervate muscle fibers to form motor units. Transmission involves the release of acetylcholine from the motor neuron terminal, which binds nicotinic receptors and opens ion channels on the muscle fiber membrane. Various toxins and conditions like myasthenia gravis and Lambert-Eaton syndrome can disrupt this process.

Lecture 5 (membrane potential and action potential)Ayub Abdi
This document discusses membrane potentials and action potentials in excitable cells like neurons and muscles. It covers:
1. The resting membrane potential of -70mV that is maintained by selective permeability of potassium ions and active transport by the sodium-potassium pump.
2. How an action potential is generated when the membrane reaches its threshold voltage due to an influx of sodium ions, causing rapid depolarization. It then repolarizes as potassium ions efflux.
3. The propagation of action potentials along neurons or muscle fibers to transmit electrical signals and cause effects like muscle contraction or neurotransmitter release.
This document discusses basic terms in electrophysiology and the properties of cardiac cells. It describes two main types of cardiac cells: electrical cells that make up the conduction system and possess the properties of automaticity, excitability, and conductivity; and myocardial cells that make up the muscular walls and possess contractility and extensibility. It explains that cardiac cells at rest are polarized but become depolarized when an electrical impulse causes ions to cross the cell membrane, generating an action potential. The action potential curve consists of five phases: resting phase, rapid depolarization, plateau phase mediated by slow calcium channels, and rapid repolarization as ions return to their resting state.
The document discusses the resting membrane potential and action potential in nerve cells. It explains that the resting membrane potential of -70 mV is established primarily due to the concentration gradients of potassium and sodium ions across the plasma membrane. Potassium ions diffuse out of the cell, while sodium ions diffuse into the cell. This creates an equilibrium potential close to the potassium equilibrium potential of -94 mV. When an excitatory stimulus is strong enough to depolarize the membrane past its threshold, voltage-gated sodium channels open, allowing rapid sodium influx and further depolarization. The membrane potential then reaches about +30 mV before sodium channels inactivate and voltage-gated potassium channels open, causing repolarization back to the resting potential.
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is composed of specialized endothelial cells that form tight junctions to restrict diffusion between blood and brain tissue. It is part of the neurovascular unit which also includes astrocytes, pericytes, neurons and the extracellular matrix. Transport across the BBB occurs mainly through facilitated diffusion, active transport or transcytosis. The BBB helps maintain homeostasis in the brain by regulating ion concentrations and selectively transporting nutrients while blocking toxins and pathogens. Disruptions to the BBB occur in conditions like tumors, infections and trauma, allowing normally restricted substances into the brain.
The neuromuscular junction is the synapse between a motor neuron and a muscle fiber. It contains a presynaptic membrane, synaptic cleft, and postsynaptic membrane. Acetylcholine is synthesized in the motor neuron and stored in vesicles. When an action potential reaches the motor neuron terminal, calcium enters and causes acetylcholine vesicles to fuse with the presynaptic membrane and release acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft. Acetylcholine then binds and opens channels in the postsynaptic membrane of the muscle fiber, generating an endplate potential that triggers a muscle action potential and contraction. Acetylcholinesterase in the cleft rapidly breaks down acetylcholine to terminate its effects.
This document summarizes the action potential in neurons. It describes how an action potential is initiated by voltage-gated sodium channels opening during depolarization. This allows sodium ions to rush into the neuron, further depolarizing the membrane. Then, the sodium channels quickly inactivate while voltage-gated potassium channels open, allowing potassium ions to leave the neuron and repolarize the membrane back to its resting potential. The precise opening and closing of sodium and potassium channels underlies the generation and propagation of action potentials along neuronal membranes.

- Adipose tissue contains adipocytes that store triglycerides and regulate energy metabolism through secretion of hormones. There are two types: white and brown adipose tissue.
- White adipose tissue is the main site for energy storage. It is found throughout the body. Brown adipose tissue helps generate heat and is found in newborns and certain regions of adults.
- White and brown adipocytes differ in lipid droplet size, mitochondrial content, and gene expression factors that regulate their differentiation and function. Recent research focuses on browning of white fat, adipose tissue engineering, and stem cells.
Neuromuscular junction and Neuromuscular transmissionDeekshya Devkota

It concludes by discussing acetylcholine degradation and reuptake, neuromuscular blockers and stimulators, and the pathology of myasthenia gravis.
Nerve fibers are classified based on their structure, distribution, origin and function. They can be myelinated or unmyelinated. When injured, the distal portion undergoes Wallerian degeneration over 3 months as the axon and myelin sheath break down. The cell body shows chromatolysis. Regeneration is possible if the nerve ends are close together. New axonal growth occurs rapidly, entering the distal stump at 3-4mm/day. Myelination resumes over a year. Though anatomy recovers, full function returns slowly.
The document discusses the neuromuscular junction and muscle contraction physiology. It defines the neuromuscular junction as the connection between motor neurons and muscle fibers that initiates muscle contraction. The structure and function of the neuromuscular junction is described, including the roles of acetylcholine, receptors, and acetylcholinesterase.

The document discusses the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which restricts passage of molecules from the bloodstream to the brain. It acts to protect the brain but also hinders drug delivery for brain disorders. Methods to overcome the BBB include disrupting it, using carrier proteins, or delivering drugs behind the BBB. Nanoparticles and liposomes loaded with drugs are also being explored. Developing strategies to target the BBB is crucial for advancing treatment of brain conditions but remains underdeveloped.
The thoracic wall is comprised of skin, fascia, muscles and bones. It protects the thoracic viscera and enables breathing movements. The bony thoracic cage consists of 12 pairs of ribs connected to 12 thoracic vertebrae and the sternum. There are three types of ribs: true ribs that connect to the sternum, false ribs that connect to ribs above, and floating ribs that do not connect to other bones. The thoracic vertebrae are distinguished by demifacets on the vertebral bodies. The sternum consists of the manubrium, body, and xiphoid process. Openings in the thoracic wall include the superior inlet bounded by the clavicle, first
about nerve fibers
It is the structural and the functional unit of nervous system.
The human nervous system contains approximate 1012 neurons.
A nerve fiber is a thread like extension of a nerve cell and consists of an axon and myelin sheath (if present) in the nervous system.
In peripheral nervous system it is formed by
schwann’s cell. While in case of central nervous system it is formed by oligodendroglia.
The places ,where myelin sheath is absent are called node of ranvier(2-3µm) and these are present once about 1-3 mm distance along the myelin sheath.

rectus sheath, the sheath covering rectus muscle of anterior abdominal wall, formation of the sheath, the muscles involved in ts formation, and the contents the sheath is covering
The resting membrane potential of neurons and muscle cells is maintained around -70 mV due to selective permeability of ions across the cell membrane. The sodium-potassium pump actively transports 3 Na+ ions out and 2 K+ ions into the cell, contributing to the negative interior potential. When the membrane potential reaches the threshold, voltage-gated sodium channels open rapidly, causing a sharp depolarization as sodium ions rush in. Subsequently, voltage-gated potassium channels open more slowly, repolarizing the membrane as potassium ions efflux from the cell. This generates an action potential that propagates by local current flow between adjacent areas of the membrane. The sodium-potassium pump then restores ion gradients in preparation for the next action potential
This document summarizes the key properties and types of muscle tissue. It describes the general properties of muscle including excitability, contractility, extensibility, and elasticity.

For skeletal muscle, it details the structure and organization of myofibrils, sarcomeres, actin and myosin filaments, and the sliding filament model of contraction. It compares skeletal and cardiac muscle and their similarities and differences.
Anatomy and physiology of central nervous systemaparna jayara
1. The central nervous system comprises the brain and spinal cord. The brain is made up of the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem.
2. The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain and is divided into four lobes that control different functions. The cerebellum aids in movement coordination and balance. The brain stem connects the brain to the spinal cord and controls vital functions.
3. The brain requires a high blood flow to meet its metabolic demands, and precisely regulates blood flow through mechanisms such as autoregulation in response to changes in blood pressure, oxygen levels, and other factors. Disruptions to this regulation can impair brain function.
The enteric nervous system, also known as the "mini brain" of the gut, helps control gastrointestinal functions. It contains neurons that use various neurotransmitters to regulate motor neurons that control secretion and movement. There are two main types of enteric neurons - AH and S-type. The enteric nervous system receives parasympathetic innervation from the vagus nerve and sympathetic innervation from the spinal cord. It contains various sensory receptors and uses synaptic transmission including slow and fast EPSPs and IPSPs. Disorders can occur if this system is disrupted, affecting digestion, absorption, and elimination.
Action potentials are short term changes in electrical potential across cell membranes in response to stimulation that allow electrical signals to propagate. They involve the movement of ions across the membrane through open channels. The cardiac action potential occurs in five phases: 1) rapid depolarization due to sodium influx; 2) early repolarization from sodium inactivation and potassium activation; 3) plateau from calcium influx; 4) rapid repolarization from potassium efflux; and 5) resting potential set by potassium equilibrium potential. Pacemaker cells additionally exhibit phase 4 diastolic depolarization driven by funny channel opening that leads to spontaneous firing.
This document discusses the neuromuscular junction and several disorders that can affect it. It begins by describing the basic anatomy and physiology of the motor unit and neuromuscular junction. It then reviews several disorders in more depth, including myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, and neuromyotonia. For each disorder, it discusses the epidemiology, clinical features, diagnostic tests, and treatment options. The goal is to provide clinicians with an overview of these neuromuscular junction disorders.
Cerebrospinal fluid and blood brain barrierRati Tandon
The document discusses the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the blood-brain barrier. It describes CSF as being produced by the choroid plexuses at a rate of about 20-25 ml/hour. CSF circulates through the ventricles and subarachnoid space, providing buoyancy and protection to the central nervous system. The blood-brain barrier is formed by tight junctions between endothelial cells in brain capillaries, restricting passage of substances from blood to brain while allowing nutrients through. It helps maintain a stable environment for neurons.
This document provides an introduction to cardiac action potentials. It describes the five phases of a cardiac action potential: phase 4 (resting phase), phase 0 (depolarization), phase 1 (early repolarization), phase 2 (plateau phase), and phase 3 (rapid repolarization). It explains that cardiac action potentials are initiated by the sinoatrial node and involve movements of ions like sodium, calcium, and potassium through ion channels, causing changes in the cell's membrane potential. These potential changes can be recorded as an electrocardiogram to monitor the heart's electrical activity.
The diencephalon is the deep part of the forebrain located above the midbrain. It consists of four key parts: the thalamus, hypothalamus, epithalamus, and subthalamus. The thalamus acts as a relay station for all sensory systems except smell. The hypothalamus regulates functions like thirst, hunger, autonomic functions, and temperature. The epithalamus contains the pineal gland which regulates circadian rhythms. The subthalamus connects to motor control areas and the reticular activating system.
Nerve fibers can be classified in six different ways: by structure, distribution, origin, function, neurotransmitter secretion, and diameter/impulse conduction. By structure, they are myelinated or non-myelinated. By distribution, they are somatic or autonomic. By origin, they are cranial or spinal. By function, they are sensory or motor. By neurotransmitter, they are adrenergic or cholinergic. By diameter/impulse conduction, Erlanger and Gasser classified them as type A, B, or C fibers with different speeds and functions.
The membrane potential is the voltage difference between the interior and exterior of a cell membrane. It arises from differences in ion concentrations across the membrane. Key ions that contribute to the membrane potential include sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+), and chloride (Cl-). The resting membrane potential of most cells is approximately -70mV, due primarily to higher intracellular potassium concentration compared to extracellular. Movement of potassium and sodium ions through membrane channels works to maintain this voltage difference at equilibrium.
This document provides guidelines for writing a research paper, including sections on background, aim, methods, analyses, results and discussion. The methods section should include the study design, subjects, and measures. The results and discussion section should summarize outcomes and interpret the magnitude and precision of effects, discussing limitations. Data should be presented in figures rather than tables when possible to aid readability. Overall, the paper should be written in a clear, concise manner avoiding technical jargon or abbreviations.
Human physiology explains the biological and chemical factors responsible for life through the study of the structure and function of the human body. The human body is made up of cells that come together to form tissues, organs and body systems. These systems work interdependently to maintain homeostasis, or internal stability, which is essential for survival. The major body systems include the circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, integumentary, nervous, endocrine, immune, skeletal, and reproductive systems.

The document discusses sensory signal processing and perception. It describes how different sensory modalities encode different attributes of a stimulus, such as location, timing, and intensity. It also discusses how sensation is determined by the nervous system's response to external stimuli, and how different sensory systems have common organizational plans involving receptors, nerve fibers, pathways to the thalamus and cortex, and cortical mapping.
This document provides an overview of the content covered on the National Boards Part I Physiology section. It lists the major topics covered and their relative weighting, including neurophysiology, muscle physiology, cardiovascular physiology, respiratory physiology, body fluids and renal physiology, gastrointestinal physiology, reproductive physiology, endocrinology, and exercise physiology. For each topic, it provides brief descriptions of the subtopics examined.
Proprioception refers to the sense of the position and movement of the body. It is detected by receptors in muscles, joints, and skin. Proprioceptive signals are sent to the central nervous system. The parietal cortex integrates proprioceptive information. Proprioception can be affected by factors like age, fatigue, injury, and diseases like Parkinson's. Proprioceptive training aims to enhance joint awareness and can help prevent injuries in sports. Body ownership refers to the sense that a body part belongs to one's own body, as shown in experiments with rubber hands.
This document provides an overview of sensation and perception. It discusses how sensation is the conduction of a stimulus to consciousness through our sensory nerves, with different nerves perceiving the same stimulus as different modalities like light, sound, or pain. It then covers topics like sensory transduction through labeled lines; spatial encoding of stimulus location; intensity encoding through action potential frequency; common plans across sensory systems; somatic sensory processing through receptors, pathways, and cortex; two point discrimination; shape and size sensation; vibration sense; pain signal processing through nociceptors and dual pathways; theories of pain modulation; and phenomena like phantom limbs and pain.
Proprioception refers to the sense of the relative position of one's own parts of the body and strength of effort being employed in movement. It provides an individual with information about body movements without having to see those movements. Proprioception plays an important role in motor control, posture, and balance.
The document discusses the differences between kinesthetic awareness and proprioception. Kinesthetic awareness is how we move externally, while proprioception is the internal messaging of where our body is in space. Proprioception provides feedback to allow kinesthetic awareness and coordinated movements without thinking. The document also provides examples of techniques to improve kinesthetic awareness and proprioception, such as various balancing exercises, calisthenics, and mirror training. Improving these can provide benefits like increased injury prevention, awareness, performance, and confidence.
This document provides an overview of training principles, methods of training, and exercise physiology knowledge for physical activity. It discusses key topics including training principles like specificity, progression, and overload/adaptation. Health and skill-related components of fitness are outlined, such as cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength, and agility. The three main energy systems - ATP-PC, anaerobic glycolysis, and aerobic - are described in relation to exercise intensity and duration. Examples are given of how different activities utilize varying proportions of the energy systems.
Proprioception is the unconscious perception of movement and spatial orientation arising from stimuli within the body. It is initiated by activation of proprioceptors in muscles, joints, and the inner ear that provide information about body position and movement to the brain. Proprioceptors are receptors located throughout the body that are sensitive to stretching and compression and provide the brain with constant awareness of where body parts are in space, if they are moving, and the speed and direction of movement.
This document discusses the effects of exercise on various body systems. It begins by outlining gender differences in physical parameters like height, weight, and body composition.

The nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS contains the brain and spinal cord, which coordinate incoming and outgoing information. The PNS connects the CNS to organs and sensory receptors, carrying signals to and from the CNS. Neurons are the basic functional units and come in sensory, motor, and interneuron types that differ in their dendrite and axon structures. Sensory neurons carry signals to the CNS while motor neurons carry signals away, and interneurons connect signals within the CNS.
The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting of the brain and spinal cord. The central nervous system is so named because it integrates information it receives from, and coordinates and influences the activity of, all parts of the bodies
The nervous system is the master controlling and communicating system of the body. It has two main parts: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord and controls sensory input, integration of information, and motor output. The PNS connects the CNS to the rest of the body through nerves and allows for voluntary control of muscles and glands as well as involuntary reflexes. The nervous system monitors both internal and external changes through sensory receptors and responds through integration and motor functions to control the body.
The document discusses the nervous system and sense organs. It begins by describing the basic functions and components of the nervous system, including neurons, action potentials, and synapses. It then provides details on the types of neurons, glial cells, and how the resting membrane potential and action potentials work. The document also discusses the evolution of nervous systems in invertebrates and vertebrates. It concludes by describing the peripheral nervous system and different types of sense organs.
Ns3 Review Of The Organization Of The Nervous Systemmedical
The document provides an overview of the organization of the nervous system. It discusses the central nervous system (CNS) which includes the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) which connects the CNS to sensory receptors and effector organs. The nervous system is composed of neurons and glial cells. Neurons have cell bodies, dendrites, axons and synaptic terminals. They communicate via electrical and chemical signals. The organization of the nervous system allows it to perform functions like sensation, movement, thinking and homeostasis.

1. The document summarizes key aspects of the nervous system, including its organization into the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS).
2. It describes the generation and conduction of nerve impulses, known as action potentials, and how they are triggered by the opening and closing of ion channels in the neuron's membrane.
3. Synapses, the junctions between neurons, are explained as the sites of neurotransmitter release that allow signals to be transmitted from one neuron to the next.
Nerve Impulse is defined as a wave of electrical chemical changes across the neuron that helps in the generation of the action potential in response to the stimulus. This transmission of a nerve impulse across the neuron membrane as a result of a change in membrane potential is known as Nerve impulse conduction.
Mechanism of Nerve Impulse Conduction
Nerve impulse conduction is a major process occurring in the body responsible for organized functions of the body. So, for conduction of nerve impulse there are two mechanisms:
Continuous conduction
Saltatory conduction
This document provides an overview of key topics related to the nervous system, including:
1. It introduces the organization of the nervous system and discusses nerve signal processing, sensory processing, motor control, consciousness, cognition, development, and recent advances.
2. It examines the structure and function of nerve cells, ion distribution and movement across cell membranes, giant nerve cells, resting membrane potential, and the action potential.
3. It explores the propagation of action potentials, saltatory conduction, the refractory period, electrical and chemical synapses, neurotransmitter release, postsynaptic receptors, and excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic potentials.
This document discusses neurophysiology and summarizes key aspects of nerve cells and signal transmission. It describes the basic anatomy of neurons including the cell body, dendrites, axon, and synaptic terminals. It explains how myelin sheaths insulate neurons and how synapses facilitate chemical transmission between neurons.

Neurons are specialized for signal conduction while neuroglial cells provide support and protection. The document then examines the structure and function of neurons, including their cell body, dendrites, axon, and synaptic transmission. It also explores concepts such as membrane potentials, action potentials, refractory periods, and the mechanisms of electrical and chemical synaptic transmission.
The document discusses neurohumoral transmission via the autonomic nervous system. It describes how the ANS is comprised of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems which modulate involuntary functions via neurotransmitters. The two main divisions differ in their origins, neurotransmitters, and target organ effects. Neurotransmission occurs via the binding of neurotransmitters like acetylcholine and norepinephrine to receptors, producing excitatory or inhibitory post-synaptic potentials that mediate various physiological responses. Neurotransmitters are synthesized, stored in vesicles, released upon neuronal firing, and degraded or reabsorbed to terminate synaptic transmission.
1) Synaptic transmission is the process by which neurons communicate via synapses. It involves the release of neurotransmitters from the presynaptic neuron that bind to and activate receptors on the postsynaptic neuron.
2) There are two main types of synapses - electrical and chemical. Chemical synapses, which involve the release and detection of neurotransmitters, are the most common in the nervous system.
3) The key structures that form a chemical synapse are the presynaptic terminal containing synaptic vesicles filled with neurotransmitters, the synaptic cleft, and the postsynaptic membrane containing neurotransmitter receptors.
