This document discusses neurons and their structural and functional types. It begins by defining neurons as the functional units of the nervous system, consisting of a cell body, axon, and dendrites. It then describes the three main types of neurons based on their structures - unipolar, bipolar, and multipolar. The document also covers the functional classifications of neurons into sensory, motor and interneurons. It provides details on the structural components of neurons including axons, nerve fibers, and synapses. Finally, it explains the phases and propagation of action potentials in neurons.

The action potential
The process of Propagation of nerve impluse in myelinated nerve fibres is called soltatory propagation.
Nerve impluses are transmitted in one direction only. The nerve fibre always have a refractory period after a stimulus and the nerve impluses obey the all or none law
The action potential travels from one location in the cell to another, but ion flow across the membrane occurs only at the nodes of Ranvier. As a result, the action potential signal jumps along the axon, from node to node, rather than propagating smoothly, as they do in axons that lack a myelin sheath.
Function of Dendrites. In order for neurons to become active, they must receive action potentials or other stimuli. Dendrites are the structures on the neuron that receive electrical messages. These messages come in two basic forms: excitatory and inhibitory.
The Cell body (soma) is the factory of the neuron. It produces all the proteins for the dendrites, axons and synaptic terminals and contains specialized organelles such as the mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, secretory granules, ribosomes and polysomes to provide energy and make the parts, as well as a production line to assemble the parts into completed products.

The nervous system is a complex network of cells, tissues, and organs that coordinates and regulates the body's responses to internal and external stimuli. It is responsible for the control and coordination of all the body's functions, including movement, sensation, thought, and behavior.
The nervous system can be divided into two main parts: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the PNS consists of all the nerves that extend from the CNS to the rest of the body.
The nervous system is made up of different types of cells, including neurons and glial cells. Neurons are specialized cells that transmit signals through the body in the form of electrical impulses. Glial cells, on the other hand, support and protect the neurons and help maintain the proper functioning of the nervous system.
The nervous system is responsible for many vital functions, including:
Sensory processing: The nervous system receives sensory information from the environment and the body's internal organs, and processes and interprets this information to generate appropriate responses.
Motor control: The nervous system controls the muscles and other organs of the body to produce movement and other responses.
Cognitive functions: The nervous system is responsible for the processes of learning, memory, language, and other complex mental activities.
Autonomic functions: The nervous system regulates the body's automatic functions, such as breathing, heart rate, digestion, and other bodily processes that are not under conscious control.
Overall, the nervous system is a complex and intricate system that plays a critical role in maintaining the body's homeostasis and overall well-being.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

2. NEURONS
The nervous system consists of vast number
of cells called neurons.
The are the functional unit of the nervous
system.
Each neuron consists of cell body(soma),
axon and dendrites.
Neurons are commonly referred to as nerve
cells. Bundles of axons bound together and
are called nerves.
6. FUNCTIONS OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM
1. Sensory input – gathering information
To monitor changes occurring inside and outside the
body (changes = stimuli)
2. Integration –
to process and interpret sensory input and decide if
action is needed.
3. Motor output
A response to integrated stimuli
The response activates muscles or glands
8. STRUCTURAL TYPES OF NEURON
Neurons are divided on the basis of structures and size
Three General Types of Neurons
1. Unipolar: A neuron from which only a single axon
leaves the cell body Most sensory neurons have this
shape. It’s just one. some books call it a pseudobipolar nerve.
2. Bipolar: A neuron from which two processes leave the
cell body. It’s found in the retina of our eyes
3. Multipolar: A neuron from which multiple branches leave
the cell body It got many neuronal processes. Multi means
many. This is a very important nerve because all motor neurons
have this shape and many interneurons also have.
10. Structural Classification of Neurons
Multipolar neurons – many extensions
from the cell body
Bipolar neurons – one axon and one
dendrite
Unipolar neurons – have a short single
process leaving the cell body
11. Neurons can also be classified into various categories, depending on
what criteria are used. For example
Functional classification
sensory neurons, that
receive sensory signals from
sensory organs and send them
via short axons to the central
nervous system
Morphological classification based on
the number of extensions from the cell
body:
pseudo-unipolar neurons with a
short extension that quickly divides
into two branches, one of which
functions as a dendrite, the other as
an axon…..
12. Functional classification
motor neurons that conduct
motor commands from the
cortex to the spinal cord or from
the spinal cord to the muscles
Morphological
classification
multipolar neurons that
have short dendrites
emanating from the cell
body and one long axon
Classification …. Cont’d
13. Functional classification
interneurons that
interconnect various neurons
within the brain or the spinal
cord
Morphological
classification
bipolar neurons that have
two main extensions of similar
lengths
Classification …. Cont’d
14. Functional classification
Pyramidal neurons/Cells
Like most neurons, pyramidal
neurons have multiple
dendrites and a single axon,
but both dendrites and axons
branch extensively.
Morphological
classification
Pyramidal neurons/Cells
are neurons with a pyramidal
shaped cell body (soma) and two
distinct dendritic trees. The basal
dendrites emerge from the base
and the apical dendrites from the
apex of the pyramidal cell body.
Classification …. Cont’d
15. TYPES OF NERVE FIBERS
The individual nerve fibers have different
diameters related to different functions. Each
nerve fiber arises from soma of the neuron
through a long extended process called the
axon.
Not all signals move at the same conduction
velocities. This is due to the type of fiber that is
conducting the signal. Most fibers fall under one
of the three different fiber types: A fibers, B
fibers, and C fibers. These classifications are
based on their diameters, and other
physiological characteristics
Note: Larger the diameter of the neuron faster the
speed of the action potential.
16. TYPE A FIBERS TYPE B FIBERS TYPE C FIBERS
Thickest and fastest
conducting fibers.
Medium in size Smallest and thinnest
Myelinated. Myelinated. Non-myelinated.
diameter 1.5-20 micron diameter 1.5-3.5 microns. diameter 0.1-2 microns.
speed of conduction is 4-
120 m/sec
speed of conduction is 3-
15 m/sec
speed of conduction is 0.5-
2 m/sec
17. PROPERTIES OF NEURON
Irritability
To initiate the nerve impulse in response to stimuli
Conductivity
Ability to transmit the response.
How neurons communicate?
Neurons communicate by means of an electrical signal
called the Action Potential
Action Potentials are based on movements of ions
between the outside and inside of the cell
When an Action Potential occurs a molecular message
is sent to neighboring neurons
18. AXONS AND NERVE IMPULSES
Axons end in axonal terminals
Axonal terminals contain vesicles with
neurotransmitters
Axonal terminals are separated from the
next neuron by a gap called
Synaptic cleft – gap between adjacent neurons
Synapse – junction between nerves
21. All or None Principle :
All or None Principle A law stating that once the
membrane depolarized to a threshold value, action
potentials occur maximally or not at all.
Throughout depolarisation, the Na+ continues to rush
inside until the action potential reaches its peak and the
sodium gates close.
If the depolarisation is not great enough to reach
threshold, then an action potential and hence an impulse
are not produced.
ACTION POTENTIAL
25. PHASES OF ACTION POTENTIAL
“An action potential (also known as a nerve impulse or a
spike potential) is a self-regenerating wave of
electrochemical activity (in response to stimuli) that allows
excitable cells (such as nerve cells) to carry a signal over a
distance.”
Stages of Action potential :
Resting stage
i. In it the neuron is polarised due to different concentration
of ion across membrane.
ii. Inside –ve membrane.
iii. Outside +ve membrane
iv. Na+ and K+ Channels are close
v. Na+ major extracellular cation
vi. K+ major intracellualr cation
vii. Membrane is at rest.
viii. This is resting membrane potential =-70mV.
26. Depolarization
i. Threshold stimulus (about -60 to -55mV)
ii. Excite the Na-channels.
iii. Na+ Channels Open
iv. Influx of Na+ Starts
v. Na+ ions Rush in
vi. Inside became more +ve membrane
vii. Outside -ve membrane
viii. Membrane potential rises from -70mV to +40mV
ix. Action Potential or nerve impulse is then generated.
PHASES OF ACTION POTENTIAL
27. Repolarization
i. Na+ Channels Close.
ii. At the same time K+ Channels Open.
iii. Efflux of K+ Starts.
iv. Inside again became –ve membrane
v. And Outside +ve membrane.
vi. Membrane potential fall to -80mV (called Undershoot)
vii. Then Na-K-Pumps Work actively using ATP, to retain the
Equilibrium.
viii. Sending 3 Na+ out and 2 K+ in to the cell. And restore the
membrane potential of -70mV.
PHASES OF ACTION POTENTIAL
28. Hyperpolarization
This is the Refractory period in which a second stimulus will not
produce a second action potential (no matter how strong that
stimulus is)
In which neuron returns to resting potential
In it Na+ is expel outside the membrane while K+ inside the
membrane.
RELATIVE - Refractory period :
RELATIVE - Refractory period, Another action potential can be
produced, but only if the stimulus is greater than the threshold
stimulus
ACTION POTENTIAL
29. Propagation of Action potential Through Myelinated Neurons :
Insulatroy properties of the myelin sheath prevent the movement of
the ions
Exchange of ions takes place only in gaps called Nodes of Ranvier.
When depolarization occurs one node it moves across along myelin
sheath to the next nodes.
This movement called Saltatory conduction.
Propagation of Action potential Through Un-myelinated Neurons :
Propagation of Action potential Through Un-Myelinated Neurons
through each and every part of the membrane. That’s why it is
called Continuous conduction with slow speed.
In unmyelinated fibres, the entire axon membrane is exposed and
impulse conduction is slower.
ACTION POTENTIAL
