    Uploaded by

    Qairul Azman
    This document discusses the functional organization of the nervous system through a lecture given by Prof. Maha Hegazi on 5/2/2012. It covers the main divisions of the nervous system including the central nervous system made up of the brain and spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system. Specific areas of the brain like the medulla, pons, midbrain, cerebellum, forebrain, cortex and basal ganglia are examined. The spinal cord, spinal nerves, cranial nerves, meninges and cerebrospinal fluid are also overviewed.

    Brain stem medulla, pons, midbrain.


    The medulla:
    contains motor and sensory nuclei of nerves

    for the throat , mouth and neck as well as nuclei involved in the control of respiratory and cardiovascular systems , movement and posture. cranial nerves IX, X, XI and XII

    Pons
    is continuous with the medulla and contains nuclei of nerves for motor and sensory functions of the face as well as nuclei involved in the control of respiration. cranial nerves V, VI, VII and VIII

    Prof Maha Hegazi

    5/2/2012

    21

    (a) Protection :The CSF serves as a shock absorbing medium to protect the brain and spinal cord from crashing against the body walls of the cranial and vertebral cavities during alterations in posture or external acceleration. (b) Circulation : CSF delivers nutritive substances filtered from blood to the brain and spinal cord and removes waste substances produced by the brain and spinal cord.
    Prof Maha Hegazi 5/2/2012

    Functions of the CSF

    22

    Blood-brain barrier

    control the type and rate by which of

    substances enter the extra-cellular fluid of the brain The endothelial cells of the capillaries within the CNS are held together by tight junctions which limit the diffusional exchange of water and water-soluble substances. The barrier is permeable to respiratory gases (O2 and CO2) , glucose and fat soluble drugs as volatile anaesthetics.
