1. Nervous Tissue

2. 【 Objectives 】 1. To identify and describe: A.The microscopic structure of the neuron— including cell body, axon and dendrites B. Differentiate a myelinated nerve fibers from an unmyelinated nerve fibers 2. To understand and describe A. The structure of a synapse B. The structure of sensory nerve termination (free nerve termination, tactile corpuscle, lamellar corpuscle and muscle spindle) or motor nerve termination (neuromusclar junction). C. General histological features of central nervous system, i.e. spinal cord, cerebellum, and cerebrum.

3. What is the principal elements of the NS? nervous tissue (NT) What does the nervous tissue consist of ? nerve cells (neurons) neuroglial cells (glial cell) What is feature of the nerve cells ? (soma, perikaryon) cell body processes dendrites axon plasma membrane cytoplasm: nucleus: Nissl body neurofibrils and neurofibrils ?? large, spherical, pale-staining; a prominent nucleolus distinguish? Axon hillock

4. Where do cell bodies of the neurons distribute? Where do processes of the neurons distribute? gray matter, cortex, nuclei white matter and the whole body Gray matter White matter

5. Observation: No1 central canalwhite matter Gray matter butterfly-like shape or H-like shape neuronal cell bodies,dendrites and the initial unmyelinated portions of axons and glial cells anterior horn posterior horn intermediate zone myelinated axons, oligodendrocytes Focus on neuron Neuron Glial cells

6. How many types of the nerve fibers? What are nerve fibers? Nerve fibers formed by the axon which be wraped by Schwann cells or oligodendrocytes CNS PNS myelinated NF unmyelinated NF

7. axon myelin sheath node of Ranvier What is the myelin sheath? How does the myelin sheath be formed? How does the impulse be propagated in the myelinated and unmyelinated fibers? How to distinguish the myelinated and unmyelinated fibers in the slides What is the function of the myelin sheath? i nternode

8. Observation: No31 sciatic nerve transverse section longitudinal section perineurium epineurium nerve nerve fibers are grouped in bundle Relationship between the nerve fibers and nerve

9. endoneurium axon myelin sheath node of Ranvier transverse section longitudinal section neurilemma

10. Unmyelinated nerve H & E Observation: No.41 transverse section of the nerve

11. Demonstration slide neurons （ Nissl staining ）

12. Neurofibril （ silver staining ）

13. Myelinated fibers （ osmic acid staining ）

14. sensory nerve ending A. free never ending B. encapsulated nerve ending a. tactile corpuscle; b. lamellar corpuscle c. muscle spindle

15. Meissner’s corpuscle (tactile corpuscles)Be involved the reception of light touch)

16. Pacinian corpuscles (lamellated corpuscles) Be involved the reception of coarse touch, deep or heavy pressure,vibration and tension

17. muscle spindle Detect changes in the length (distension) of extrafusal muscle fibers and relay this information to the spinal cord

18. Motor nerve terminations somatic motor nerve terminations visceral motor nerve terminations

19. Synapse （ silver staining ） in the LM Definition of the synapse; the structure of the synapse

20. Cerebrum A: molecular layer B: external granular layer C: external pyramidal layer D: internal granular layer E: internal pyramidal layer F: multiform layer Cerebral cortex (gray matter) White matter

21. Cerebellum A: molecular layer, B: Purkinje cell layer C: granular layer gray matter White matter

23. Myenteric nerve plexus

24. Oligodendrocytes

25. NT nerve cells (neurons) neuroglial cells (glial cell) (Supporting cells) Soma cell body dendrites: axon: processes plasma membrane: cytoplasm nucleus: excitable Nissl body neurofibrils LM: basophilic granular EM: rER, ribsom LM: brownish black filaments EM: neuofilaments and microtubule large, spherical, pale-staining; a prominent nucleolus. one or more /neuron; usually short and thick, and branched; dentritic spines on surfaces ; one axon each neuron; long and thin, does not branch profusely; derived from axon hillock; devoid of Nissl bodies; axon terminals (buttons) contain vesicles with neurotransmitters in them CNS: PNS: astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, ependymal cells Schwann cells, capsular cells (satellite cells)
