PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM(P.N.S)
• The PNS (Somatic + A.N.S) consists of all
Afferent (sensory) neurons- which carry nerve impulses from sensory end organs in peripheral tissues into the CNS.
Efferent (motor) neurons- which carry nerve impulses from the CNS to effector cells in peripheral tissues.
The fibers that control voluntary movements are somatic nerves.
![Page 5: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
NOMENLATURE
• Synapse is the junction across which a nerve impulse passes from axon of a neuron to dendrite of another neuron.
• Nerve fibers carrying the signal into a Synapse are: presynaptic.
• Nerve fibers carrying the signal out of a Synapse are: postsynaptic.
![Page 6: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
![Page 7: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Contd..
• Ganglion is a group of nerve cells forming a nerve center, especially one located outside the brain or spinal cord.
• Nerve fibers carrying the signal into a ganglion are: Preganglionic.
• Nerve fibers carrying the signal out of a ganglion are: Postganglionic.
![Page 8: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
![Page 9: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM• It consist of two types of neurons1. Afferent(Sensory) neurons - carry information from
cutaneous & special sensory receptors in the peripheral organs to the C.N.S.
2. Efferent(motor) neurons- conduct impulses from the C.N.S to skeletal muscle only.
since the effect of motor neurons can be consciously
controlled, the motor part of somatic nervous system is primarily concerned with the voluntary functions like locomotion, respiration, posture and deep tendon reflexes.
![Page 10: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Contd.
• Axons of somatic motor neurons extend from the CNS are myelinated, they run uninterrupted without any ganglia or synapse straight up to neuromuscular junction (NMJ).
• Neurotransmitter released by somatic nerves at NMJ is Ach.
• Stimulation of Nm (neuromuscular nicotinic receptors) by Ach produces contraction of the skeletal muscle.
![Page 11: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Contd..• Cholinergic crisis- excessive stimulation of Nm receptors by Ach, leads
to initial fasciculations or jerks( due to persistant depolarisation) followed by flaccid paralysis due to desensitization of Nm receptors.
• Blockade of Nm receptors by drugs like d-tubocurarine leads to progressive flaccid paralysis.
• Somatic nerve degeneration leads to paralysis or atrophy of skeletal muscle.
![Page 12: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Autonomic Nervous SystemAfferent neurons – convey information from receptors located in the
viscera to the CNS. Efferent neurons – conduct impulses from the CNS to the effector
organs.
Efferent responses of ANS are autoregulatory or involuntary in nature.
ANS regulates - contraction & relaxation of smooth muscles - exocrine & some endocrine secretions
- heart rate- blood pressure- metabolic functions
Section of the autonomic nerve or its complete degeneration leads to denervation supersensitivity of autonomic receptors of the organ supplied by that nerve.
![Page 13: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Contd.. Two neurons are required to connect the CNS and a visceral
effector cell of the ANS. All autonomic nerves have a relay center in between called
ganglion, which lies outside CNS. • The first neuron in this sequence is called the preganglionic
neuron. • The second neuron, whose cell body is within the ganglion,
travels to the visceral effector cell; it is called the postganglionic neuron.
![Page 14: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Differences between somatic and autonomic nervous system
Somatic• Skeletal muscles • All Myelinated • Ganglia Absent • Neurotransmitter- Acetylcholine
• On sectioning – Paralysis and atrophy
Autonomic• All other organs (visceral, etc)
• Preganglionic fiber Myelinated
• Ganglia Present
• Neurotransmitter –Acetylcholine, Nor adrenaline
• On sectioning – Activity maintained, no atrophy
![Page 15: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
![Page 16: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
A.N.S
• ANS consists of three main anatomical divisions:-
Parasympathetic Nervous System
Sympathetic Nervous System
Enteric Nervous System
![Page 17: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Parasympathetic Nervous System• cranio-sacral outputs
The cranial part of the parasympathetic nervous system innervates structures in the head, neck, thorax, and abdomen (e.g., the stomach, part of the intestines, and pancreas).
The cranial parasympathetic fibers leave the CNS in the
oculomotor, facial, glossopharyngeal, and vagal cranial nerves.
The sacral division (S2 to S4) of the parasympathetic nervous system innervates the remainder of the intestines and the pelvic viscera
![Page 18: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
![Page 19: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CONTD..• Parasympathetic preganglionic fibers are usually myelinated & long
• Parasympathetic postganglionic fibers are shorter in length & non myelinated.
• Parasympathetic preganglionic fibers tend to synapse with only a very little number of postganglionic parasympathetic fibers.
• Ramification of postganglionic parasympathetic fibers at the neuroeffector junction is least diffused.
• Neurotransmitter – Ach
![Page 20: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
CONTD..
Ach releasing sites 1. Autonomic ganglia2. Postganglionic Parasympathetic fibers3. Postganglionic sympathetic fibers to sweat
glands4. Skeletal muscles (NMJ)5. Adrenal medulla6. Brain
![Page 21: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) The preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system have their cell
bodies in the thoracic (T1-T12) and lumbar regions (L1 to L2) of the spinal cord.
Termed the thoraco-lumbar division.
Just outside the spinal cord, preganglionic fibers communicate with paravertebral chain of 22 sympathetic ganglia.
These ganglia lie bilaterally on either side of the spinal cord, each ganglia is connected with each other by the nerve trunk.
Preganglionic fibers terminate in ganglia (paravertebral chains)
Postganglionic sympathetic fibers innervate peripheral tissues
![Page 22: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Contd..• sympathetic ganglia lie close to the vertebral column.• preganglionic fibers are generally short in length & are myelinated.• Post ganglionic fibers are long & non-myelinated• Preganglionic sympathetic fibers tend to synapse with a large
number of postganglionic fibers which in turn have a more diffused ramification at neuroeffector junction.
• Neurotransmitter at sympathetic ganglia is Ach.
• All postganglionic sympathetic fibers release norepinephrine at the neuroeffector junction.
• A few sympathetic ganglia lie near the organs innervated (e.g., (urinary bladder and rectum); thus these preganglionic fibers are long and postganglionic fibers are short
![Page 23: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CONTD..• Not all sympathetic post ganglionic neurons are noradrenergic.
• Some are cholinergic; that is, they release acetylcholine rather than norepinephrine, even though anatomically they are sympathetic neurons.
• Exceptions:
• sweat glands
• some smooth muscles and vascular beds (piloerector muscles & some blood vessels of skeletal musculature)
![Page 24: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Enteric Nervous System (ENS) Organized collection of different neurons located in the wall of git.
ENS function independently of CNS.
Controls motility, exocrine and endocrine secretions and microcirculation of GI tract.
It is modulated by both the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system(dual innervation)
Parasympathetic cholinergic activity generally increases the motility of intestine ( while relaxing the sphincters).
Sympathetic noradrenergic activity usually decreases the motility of the gut ( while contracting the sphincters).
The preganglionic fibers make contact at the ENS ganglia in the myenteric and submucosal plexus.
![Page 29: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Besides Ach & NE many other substances have been identified in the ENS Neuropeptide (NP) Substance P Serotonin (5HT) Dopamine (DA) Cholecystokinin (CCK)
Under the influence of these substances , the plexus perform their peristaltic and other functions and also coordinate motor activity in the total absence of CNS control.
HETEROTROPIC RECEPTOR INTERACTION
where one neuron control the neurotransmitter release of the other neuron.
![Page 30: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
CONTD..• In intestine, there is an anatomical proximity of the sympathetic and
parasympathetic postganglionic neuron.
• The alpha2 receptors are located presynaptically on the cholinergic neurons.
• NE released from adrenergic neuron activates the alpha2 receptors located presynaptically on cholinergic neurons.
• This would ultimately inhibit the release of Ach from cholinergic neurons.
![Page 31: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

AUTONOMI INNERVATION FEW EXCEPTIONS
.ONLY SYMPATHETIC (NO PARASYMPATHETIC) INNERVATION- Radial .muscle of iris, smooth muscles of eyelids, nictitating membrane, pilomotor muscle, ventriular myoardium, bladder neck(trigone)., seminal vesicle & vas defrens.
.Only parasympathetic (no sympathetic) innervation- circular muscle of iris, ciliary musle. Larimal gland, muous membrane of G.I.T and bronhial tree, panreati exorine glands,detrussor muscle of bladder and erretile tissue of penis.
![Page 33: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Contd..Only adrenergic receptors ( but no sympathetic innervation)-
adipoytes (lipolysis), liver cell(gluconeogenesis), skeletal muscle cells (glycolysis) do have beta reeptors but no sympatheti innervation.
Only holinergic receptor(but no parasympathetic innervation)-Blood vessels have musrainic receptors but no parasympathetic
innervation.hence they respond only to exogenous given Ach.At salivary gland effect of both the system is complementary to
each other.
![Page 34: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
AUTORECEPTORS
These are the receptors located in presynaptic membrane and serves as a part of a negative feedback loop in signal transduction.
Neurotransmitter released from nerve terminal acts on its presynaptic autoreceptors and inhibits or increase its own release.
This is called Homotropic receptor activation.
Cholinergic receptors- M2 receptor located presynaptically decrease the Ach release on
activation. Presynaptic nicotinic receptors increase the Ach release.
![Page 35: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Contd..
• Presynaptic alpha2 receptor activation – decreases NE release.
• Presynaptic beta 1&2 receptor activation – increases NE release
![Page 36: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
summary• Peripheral nervous system has two components…
– Somatic – Autonomic … which has two divisions…
• Sympathetic • Parasympathetic
• Preganglionic fibres of all the three divisions (sympathetic , parasympathetic and somatic nervous system) releases Ach.
• Ganglia of both (sympathetic and parasympathetic) system contains nicotinic receptor.
• Somatic NS does not contain peripheral ganglia.• Postganglionic SYMPATHETIC nerve endings in ADRENAL MEDULA releases
NA & ADR. (Adrenal medulla is the only site where Adrenalin is released as neurotransmitter).
• Postganglionic SYMPATHETIC nerve endings in RENAL BLOOD VESSELS releases DA.
![Page 37: A.n.s intro by varun](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062902/58ee1da61a28ab252c8b4661/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
CONTD..
• postganglionic sympathetic nerve endings in sweat gland releases Ach. (remember even though fibres are sympathetic , they release Ach).
• Major neurotransmiter at most of the post ganglionic “sympathetic nerve ending” is “NA”
• All post ganglionic “parasympathetic nerve endings” releases acetyl choline “(Ach)”.
