Nervous system and BrainFew facts from your A/Levels or high school biology
• Nervous system consists of nerve tissues: neurons and glia
• Brain and spinal cord belongs to CNS• In CNS, macroscopically white and gray
matter are identifiable• These white and gray matter are arranged into
different areas of the brain and spinal cord
![Page 4: Parts of the Brain](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062800/568142a4550346895daede8c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• In a Fresh brain or Spinal cord.,– White is due to myelinated (protein +l ipid); nerve fibers or
Axons– Gay is due to cells; neurons & gliaBut in imaging techniques gray and white may look different

DEVELOPMENT OF THE BRAIN
Is the key to understand its structure
![Page 9: Parts of the Brain](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062800/568142a4550346895daede8c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Neural Tube
Neural crests
![Page 10: Parts of the Brain](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062800/568142a4550346895daede8c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Development - Major points
• Nervous system develops from an area of ectoderm called neuroectoderm or neural plate of the embryo
• Neuroectoderm give rise to neural tube and the peripheral nerves develop from neural crests
![Page 11: Parts of the Brain](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062800/568142a4550346895daede8c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Cerebral White matter
1. Consists of Axons that connect different parts of the nervous system
2. These axons are arranged in bundles which can be displayed by dissection
![Page 28: Parts of the Brain](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062800/568142a4550346895daede8c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Cerebral White matter
Three types of axon bundles (fasciculi) are present in cerebral white matter:
A. Association fibersConfined to a hemisphere and connects cortical areas within the hemisphere
B. Transverse or Commissural fibers• Connects 2 hemispheres• Axons runs in corpus callosum and anterior commissure,
C. Projection fibersConnect cerebral cortex with subcortical structures, brain stem and spinal cord

Other internal structures of cerebral hemispheres
• Diencephalic structures (Thalamus, hypothalamus, epi thalamus and sub thalamus)
![Page 37: Parts of the Brain](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062800/568142a4550346895daede8c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

• Telencephalic gray matter– Corpus striatum (telencephalic gray matter associated with lateral
ventricles)• Striatum (caudate nucleus, nucleus accumbens & putamen)• Pallidium (globus pallidus)

Histology of cerebral cortex
• Cerebral gray and white matter is (histologically) arranged in layers
• Three Histologically different areas can be identified:1. Paleocortex (olfactory system)2. Archicortex (hipocampal formation) 3. Neocortex (rest of cerebral cortex) -
3 layers
6 layers

There are two types of neurons :1. Principal neurons
a. Typical principal cells are pyramidal cells
b. Atypical principal cells are fusifom cells
2. Inter neurons

Principal neurons connect with other neurons in CNS in 3 ways
I. Projection neurons/fibers (subcortical areas such as thalamus, corpus striatum, brain stem & spinal cord)
II. Association neurons/fibers (connects cortical neurons in same hemisphere)
III. Comissural neurons/fibers (connects cortical neurons in opposite hemisphere )
