  • Anatomy of Cerebellum Rajasekhar Sajja Srinivasa Siva Naga
    Chapter Anatomy of Cerebellum Rajasekhar Sajja Srinivasa Siva Naga Abstract The cerebellum receives inputs from spinal cord, cerebrum, brainstem, and sensory systems of the body and controls the motor system of the body. The Cerebellum harmonizes the voluntary motor activities such as maintenance of posture and equilibrium, and coordination of voluntary muscular activity including learning of the motor behaviours. Cerebellum occupies posterior cranial fossa, and it is relatively a small part of the brain. It weighs about one tenth of the total brain. Cerebellar lesions do not cause motor or cognitive impairment. However, they cause slowing of movements, tremors, lack of equilibrium/balance. Complex motor action becomes shaky and faltering. Keywords: Cerebellum, Spinocerebellar ataxia, Cortex, Medulla, Peduncles, Nuclei 1. Introduction The Cerebellum is the largest part of the hindbrain and develops from the alar plates (rhombic lips) of the metencephalon. It lies between the temporal and occipital lobes of cerebrum and the brainstem in the posterior cranial fossa. It is attached to the posterior surface of the brainstem by three large white fibre bundles. It is attached to the midbrain by superior cerebel- lar peduncle, pons by middle cerebellar peduncle, and medulla by inferior cerebellar peduncle. Cerebellum is concerned with three primary functions: a) coordination of voluntary motor functions of the body initiated by the cerebral cortex at an uncon- scious level, b) maintenance of balance, and posture, c) Maintenance of muscle tone. It receives and integrates the sensory inputs from the cerebrum and the spinal cord necessary for a planning and smooth coordination of the movements [1]. Cerebellar lesions result in irregular and uncoordinated, awkward intentional muscle movements.

  • Occurrence of Long-Term Depression in the Cerebellar Flocculus During Adaptation of Optokinetic Response Takuma Inoshita, Tomoo Hirano*
    SHORT REPORT Occurrence of long-term depression in the cerebellar flocculus during adaptation of optokinetic response Takuma Inoshita, Tomoo Hirano* Department of Biophysics, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University, Sakyo-ku, Japan Abstract Long-term depression (LTD) at parallel fiber (PF) to Purkinje cell (PC) synapses has been considered as a main cellular mechanism for motor learning. However, the necessity of LTD for motor learning was challenged by demonstration of normal motor learning in the LTD-defective animals. Here, we addressed possible involvement of LTD in motor learning by examining whether LTD occurs during motor learning in the wild-type mice. As a model of motor learning, adaptation of optokinetic response (OKR) was used. OKR is a type of reflex eye movement to suppress blur of visual image during animal motion. OKR shows adaptive change during continuous optokinetic stimulation, which is regulated by the cerebellar flocculus. After OKR adaptation, amplitudes of quantal excitatory postsynaptic currents at PF-PC synapses were decreased, and induction of LTD was suppressed in the flocculus. These results suggest that LTD occurs at PF-PC synapses during OKR adaptation.

    Human Anatomy and Physiology I Lab 10 The nervous system Learning Outcomes • Break the nervous system into its main subdivisions. Assessment: Exercise 10.1 • Visually locate and identify the major structures of the brain Assessment: Exercise 10.1 Overview of the nervous system Information The nervous system is the collection of cells and tissues that form the structures and organs involved in collecting and processing sensory information and then triggering reactions. The nervous system is broken down into the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system is just the brain and the spinal cord. The peripheral nervous system is the rest of the nervous tissue in the body and the sensory organs that the nervous tissue attaches to. The peripheral nervous tissue includes the cranial nerves that branch out from the brain and the spinal nerves that branch out from the spinal cord, as well as all the sensory organs in the head and body. Figure 10-1. A typical diagram of the nervous system, showing the central nervous system in yellow, and the nervous tissue of the peripheral nervous system in blue, but leaving out all the sensory organs that are also part of the peripheral nervous system. The four major regions of the brain Information As is the case with many other human organs, understanding the structures and anatomy of the brain has proven far easier than understanding its functioning and physiology. As a result, different neuroanatomists have organized and labelled the different parts of the brain in different ways, based on different criteria.

  • Brain Anatomy
    BRAIN ANATOMY Adapted from Human Anatomy & Physiology by Marieb and Hoehn (9th ed.) The anatomy of the brain is often discussed in terms of either the embryonic scheme or the medical scheme. The embryonic scheme focuses on developmental pathways and names regions based on embryonic origins. The medical scheme focuses on the layout of the adult brain and names regions based on location and functionality. For this laboratory, we will consider the brain in terms of the medical scheme (Figure 1): Figure 1: General anatomy of the human brain Marieb & Hoehn (Human Anatomy and Physiology, 9th ed.) – Figure 12.2 CEREBRUM: Divided into two hemispheres, the cerebrum is the largest region of the human brain – the two hemispheres together account for ~ 85% of total brain mass. The cerebrum forms the superior part of the brain, covering and obscuring the diencephalon and brain stem similar to the way a mushroom cap covers the top of its stalk. Elevated ridges of tissue, called gyri (singular: gyrus), separated by shallow groves called sulci (singular: sulcus) mark nearly the entire surface of the cerebral hemispheres. Deeper groves, called fissures, separate large regions of the brain. Much of the cerebrum is involved in the processing of somatic sensory and motor information as well as all conscious thoughts and intellectual functions. The outer cortex of the cerebrum is composed of gray matter – billions of neuron cell bodies and unmyelinated axons arranged in six discrete layers. Although only 2 – 4 mm thick, this region accounts for ~ 40% of total brain mass. The inner region is composed of white matter – tracts of myelinated axons.
