Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Spinal Cord Location Begins at the foramen magnum Ends as conus medullaris at L 1 vertebra Functions Provides two-way communication to and from the brain Contains spinal reflex centers

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Spinal Cord: Protection Bone, meninges, and CSF Cushion of fat and a network of veins in the epidural space between the vertebrae and spinal dura mater CSF in subarachnoid space

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 12.29a Cervical enlargement Dura and arachnoid mater Lumbar enlargement Conus medullaris Cauda equina Filum terminale Cervical spinal nerves Lumbar spinal nerves Sacral spinal nerves Thoracic spinal nerves (a) The spinal cord and its nerve roots, with the bony vertebral arches removed. The dura mater and arachnoid mater are cut open and reflected laterally.

Gray Matter Dorsal horns—interneurons that receive somatic and visceral sensory input Ventral horns—somatic motor neurons whose axons exit the cord via ventral roots Lateral horns (only in thoracic and lumbar regions) –sympathetic neurons Dorsal root (spinal) gangia—contain cell bodies of sensory neurons

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Spinal Cord Trauma Flaccid paralysis—severe damage to the ventral root or ventral horn cells Impulses do not reach muscles; there is no voluntary or involuntary control of muscles Muscles atrophy

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Spinal Cord Trauma Spastic paralysis—damage to upper motor neurons of the primary motor cortex Spinal neurons remain intact; muscles are stimulated by reflex activity No voluntary control of muscles

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Poliomyelitis Destruction of the ventral horn motor neurons by the poliovirus Muscles atrophy

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Also called Lou Gehrig’s disease Involves progressive destruction of ventral horn motor neurons and fibers of the pyramidal tract Symptoms—loss of the ability to speak, swallow, and breathe

Developmental Aspects of the CNS CNS is established during the first month of development Gender-specific areas appear in both brain and spinal cord, depending on presence or absence of fetal testosterone Maternal exposure to radiation, drugs (e.g., alcohol and opiates), or infection can harm the developing CNS Smoking decreases oxygen in the blood, which can lead to neuron death and fetal brain damage
