It impairs speech (it
17、 sounds thick) and causes the tongue to deviate toward the paralyzed side. In time, the tongue diminishes in size (atrophies).,Hypoglossal tumor,Tongue atrophy in left side,Contents,Cranial nerves,Transduction pathway of sense,1,2,3,4,5,SOMESTHETIC SYSTEM OF THE HEAD,Nerve cells bodies for touch, pr
18、essure, pain, and temperature in the head are in the trigeminal (semilunar) ganglion of the trigeminal (CN V) nerve (blue and red lines in figure).Neuronal cell bodies mediating proprioception reside in the mesencephalic nucleus of CNV (purple fibers). Most relay neurons project to the Contralateral
19、 VPM nucleus of the thalamus and thence to the postcentral gyrus of the cerebral cortex, where they are somatotopically represented.,RETINOGENICULOSTRIATE VISUAL PATHWAY,The retina has two types of photoreceptors:cones that mediatecolor vision and rods that mediate light perception but with low acui
20、ty. The greatest acuity is found in the region of the macula of the retina(where only cones are found (upper left panel).,Visual signals are conveyed by the ganglion cells whose axons course in the optic nerves. Visual signals from the nasal retina cross in the optic chiasm while information from th
21、e temporal retina remains in the ipsilateral optic tract. Fibers synapse in the lateral geniculate nucleus (visual field is topographically represented here and inverted), and signals are conveyed to the visual cortex on the medial surface of the occipital lobe.,RETINOGENICULOSTRIATE VISUAL PATHWAY,
22、The positions of injury,The sights,The cochlea transduces sound into electrical signals. This is accomplished by the hair cells, which depolarize in response to vibration of the basilar membrane. The basilar membrane moves inresponse to pressure changes imparted on the oval window of the cochlea in
23、response to vibrations of the tympanic membrane.,AUDITORY PATHWAYS:COCHLEAR RECEPTORS,The cochlea transduces sound into electrical signals. Axons convey these signals to the dorsal and ventral cochlear nuclei, where it is tonotopically organized. Following a series of integrated relay pathways, the
24、ascending pathway projects to the thalamus (medial geniculate bodies) and then the acoustic cortex in the transverse gyrus of the temporal lobe, where information is tonotopically represented (low, middle, and high tones).,VESTIBULOSPINAL TRACTS,VESTIBULAR RECPTORSThe vestibular apparatus detects mo
25、vement of the head in the form of linear and angular acceleration. This information is important for the control of eye movements so that the retina can be provided with a stable visual image. It is also important for the control of posture.,Sensory input from the vestibular apparatus is used to mai
26、ntain stability of the head and to maintain balance and posture. Axons convey vestibular information to the vestibular nuclei in the pons, and then secondary axons distribute this information to five sites: spinal cord (muscle control), cerebellum (vermis), reticular formation (vomiting center), ext
27、raocular muscles, cortex (conscious perception).,VESTIBULOSPINAL TRACTS,TASTE PATHWAYS,TASTE RECEPTORSTaste buds on the tongue respond to various chemical stimuli. Taste cells, like neurons, normally have a net negative charge internally and are depolarized by stimuli, thus releasing transmitters th
28、at depolarize neurons connected to the taste cells.,Depicted here are the afferent pathways leading from the taste receptors to the brainstem and, ultimately, to the sensory cortex in the postcentral gyrus.,TASTE PATHWAYS,OLFACTORY PATHWAY,OLFACTORY RECEPTORS,OLFACTORY PATHWAY,Integrated signals pas
29、s along the olfactory tract and centrally diverge to pass to the anterior commissure (some efferent projections course to the contralateral olfactory bulb, blue lines) or terminate in the ipsilateral olfactory trigone (olfactory tubercle). Axons then project to the primary olfactory cortex (piriform
30、 cortex), entorhinal cortex, and amygdala.,Olfactory stimuli are detected by the nerve fibers of the olfactory epithelium and conveyed to the olfactory bulb .,SOMESTHETIC SYSTEM OF THE BODY Cutaneous Sensory Receptors:,Cutaneous receptors respond to touch (mechanoreceptors), pain (nociceptors), and
31、temperature (thermoreceptors). Several different types of receptors are present in skin.,SOMESTHETIC SYSTEM OF THE BODY,Pain, temperature, and pressure sensations below the head ultimately are conveyed to the primary somatosensory cortex (postcentral gyrus) by the anterolateral system (spinothalamic
32、 and pinoreticular tracts).The fasciculus gracilis and cuneatus of the spinal lemniscal system convey proprioceptive, vibratory, and tactile sensations to the thalamus (ventral posterolateral nucleus).The lateral cervical system mediates some touch, vibratory, and proprioceptive sensations (blue and
33、 purple lines show these dual pathways). Ultimately, these fibers ascend as parallel pathways to the thalamus, synapse, And ascend to the cortex.,DERMATOMES,Sensory information below the head is localized to specific areas of the body, which reflect the distribution of peripheral sensory fibers that
34、 convey sensations to the spinal cord through the dorsal roots (sensory nerve cell bodies reside in the corresponding dorsal root ganglion). The area of skin subserved by afferent fibers of one dorsal root is called a dermatome. This figure shows the dermatome segments and lists key dermatome levels
35、 used by clinicians. Variability and overlap occur, so all dermatome segments are only approximations.,For example, when the C6 nerve is pinched, there is pain and numbness in the thumb and index finger.,List of Dermatomes of Commonly Injured Nerve Roots,C5 The area over the shoulder.C6 The thumb an

37、,1,2,3,4,5,Descending Motor Pathways,CORTICOSPINAL TRACTS The corticospinal, or pyramidal, tract is the major motor tract that controls voluntary movement of the skeletal muscles, especially skilled movements of distal muscles of the limbs. All structures from the cerebral cortex to the anterior hor
38、n cells in the spinal cord constitute the upper portion of the system (upper motor neuron). The anterior horn cells and their associated axons constitute the lower portion of the system (lower motor neuron).,CEREBRAL CORTEX: LOCALIZATION OF FUNCTION AND ASSOCIATION PATHWAYS,The cerebral cortex is or
39、ganized into functional regions. In addition to specific areas devoted to sensory and motor functions, there are areas that integrate information from multiple sources.,The corticonuclear tract:,The corticonuclear tract is a white matter pathway connecting the cerebral cortex to the brainstem. The m
40、uscles of the face, head and neck are controlled by the corticobulbar system, which terminates on motor neurons within brainstem motor nuclei. The corticonuclear tract runs through the genu of the internal capsule and a few fibers in the posterior limb of the internal capsule, as it passes from the
41、motor cortex down through to the brainstem.,The corticonuclear tract:,The corticonuclear tract innervates cranial motor nuclei bilaterally with the exception of the lower facial nuclei which are innervated only contralaterally (below the eyes) and CN XII, which is innervated contralaterally as well.
42、 Among those nuclei that are bilaterally innervated a slightly stronger connection contralaterally than ipsilaterally is observed. The corticobulbar tract directly innervates the nuclei for cranial nerves V, VII, XI, and XII, and indirectly innervates nuclei for nerves III, IV, and VI via interneuro
43、ns. It also contributes to the motor regions of nerves X and IX in the nucleus ambiguus.,Upper motor neuron paralysis& Lower motor neuron paralysis,These changes in muscle performance vary depending on the site and the extent of the lesion, and may include:* Muscle weakness* Decreased control of act
44、ive movement* Brisk tendon jerk reflexes* Spasticity: a velocity-dependent change in muscle tone * Clasp-knife response: where initial higher resistance to movement followed by a lesser resistance * Babinski sign is present* increase deep tendon reflex* EMG: nerve conduction was normal and no loss o

46、 - paralysis accompanied by muscle loss. This is in contrast to a upper motor neuron lesion, which often presents with spastic paralysis - paralysis accompanied by severe hypertonia.* Muscle paresis or paralysis * fibrillations* fasciculations* Hypotonia or atonia* Areflexia or hyporeflexia* EMG: ne
