Autonomic Nervous System: Organization, Neurotransmitters, and Receptors, Study Guides, Projects, Research of Anatomy

NeurophysiologyPharmacologyPhysiologyAnatomy

An in-depth look into the Autonomic Nervous System, covering its organization, neurotransmitters, receptors, agonists, and antagonists. It also discusses the differences between the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic divisions, their functions, and the role of higher control in the system.

What you will learn

  • What is the role of acetylcholine and noradrenaline in the Autonomic Nervous System?
  • How does the higher control of the Autonomic Nervous System regulate the body?
  • What neurotransmitters and receptors are involved in the Autonomic Nervous System?
  • What are the functions of the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic divisions of the Autonomic Nervous System?
  • How do sympathetic and parasympathetic receptors differ?

LECTURE 9 and 10 • Red : important • Black : in male / female slides • Pink : in girls slides only • Blue : in male slides only • Green : notes, Extra AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM (l) & (ll) Version 2 Objectives • At the end of this lecture, students should be able to: 1. Appreciate the anatomy of the Sympathetic & Parasympathetic nervous system 2. Explain Physiological functions of Sympathetic & Parasympathetic nerves in the head, neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. 3. Organization of the Autonomic Nervous system 4. Neurotransmitters and Receptors 5. Agonists and Antagonists to Autonomic receptors 6. Sympathetic & Parasympathetic Tone 7. Examples Autonomic nervous system (ANS) • Organization of autonomic nervous system motor pathway consists of two neurons: - Preganglionic neuron. (cell body inside CNS “in brain or cord”) - Postganglionic neuron. (cell body in ganglion outside CNS) vAll preganglionic neurons release Acetylcholine (Ach). vPostganglionic release either Ach or norepinephrine. Organization of the Autonomic Nervous System This picture was only found in male slides Autonomic nervous system • ANS: is the subdivision of the peripheral nervous system that regulates body activities that are generally not under conscious control. • Visceral motor innervates non-skeletal (non-somatic) muscles. Composed of a special group of neurons serving Cardiac muscle (the heart) Smooth muscle (walls of viscera and blood vessels) Internal organs Skin Found in girls slides only Terminology SYMPATHETIC AND PARASYMPATHETIC ADRENERGIC AND CHOLINERGIC anatomic terms and refer to anatomic origin of preganglionic neurons in the central nervous system. terms are used to describe neurons of either division, according to which neurotransmitter they synthesize and release. v Adrenergic neurons release nor-epinephrine and the receptor is adrenoreceptor v Cholinergic neurons release Ach and the receptor is cholinergic Higher control of the autonomic Nervous System • - Sympathetic NS is regulated by neurons in the Posterior part of the hypothalamus. • - Parasympathetic NS is regulated by neurons in the Anterior part of the hypothalamus.

All parasympathetic postganglionic release Ach. All sympathetic postganglionic release noradrenalin except sweat glands & blood vessels to skeletal muscles.

D) Sexual reflexes: Parasympathetic à erection. Sympathetic à ejaculation. B) Gastrointestine: The receptors in the nose & mouth signals the parasympathetic system to notify the glands of mouth & stomach to secrete digestive juices. C) Urinary Bladder: Initiates the micturition - discharge of urine - by parasympathetic innervations. Most of the visceral functions of the body are regulated by autonomic reflexes. Found in males slides only Autonomic reflexes • The sympathetic activation could occur in isolated portions, such as: • Heart regulation. • Many Reflexes regulating G.I functions. The parasympathetic usually causes specific localized responses. Usualy to a certain organ, but sometimes it affects the function of some organs together, such as: • Rectal emptying + Bladder emptying. • Salivary secretion + Gastric secretion.
