Neuron and Dendrite 3 parts of Neuron : dendrite(input) : body(processor) : axon (output) Hillock : initial section of axon : lowest threshold; 8mV : AP is generated 그림 569
Dendrite Tree Input architecture of neuron : branch collects about 100,000 messages : coming from preceding neurons : via synaptic & electrical gap junction Dendrite branches : nonregenerating & unmyelinated : rapid attenuation of signal dendrite potential Inhibitory inputs : relatively weak & close to neuron body : raise firing threshold of neuron Output resulting from combination of input signals 그림 569
Dendrite Potential Propagates toward neuron body : increase in time width, decrease in voltage : neuron body is excited by simultaneous APs : less attenuation for closer junctions fewer stimulating neuron Generation ofAction Potential : when net summation exceeds threshold Graded potential generating neuron : proportional potential to net summation of DPs
Four targets for the messages 1. To skeletal muscle : result in contraction 2. To cardiac, smooth muscle & visceral organs : Action Potential & Graded Potential(Sometimes) :release of chemical transmitter stimulated target tissue Heart muscle - sympathetic nerve stimulation adrenaline increase contraction of heart muscle - parasympathetic nerve stimulation acetylcholine decrease contraction Pancreas - parasympathetic nerve stimulation acetylcholine increase production of digestive enzyme - sympathetic nerve stimulation(during stress) adrenaline inhibit production of digestive enzyme
4 Targets for the messages 3. To neurosecretory cells : release of neurohormones Hypothalamus neuron : send axon to nearby posterior pituitary secretion of substance stimulate or inhibit the secretion of hormones of pituitary 4. On the dendrites of other neurons : transmission of message : processing of message
cf) Temporal summation Spatial Summation of Dendrite
Dendrite Treelike structure : dendritic tree : gather messages : fewer to 100,000 : via synaptic junction : via electrical gap junction : single AP at the periphery 그림 5-1
Synaptic Junction Dimension - diameter; 1m(10,000Å) - synaptic gap; 200Å Transmission : Action Potential arrival excitatory transmitter (acetylcholine) diffuse across the junction stimulate carrier protein transport Na+ into dendrite events similar to Action Potential Postsynaptic Potential(PSP) : Calcium plays a vital role 그림570
Post Synaptic Potential Waveform of PSP : 0.6ms delay for gap transmission : acetylcholine molecules - not march in unison - straggle across, spread out in space & time : 2ms delay for peak appearance : Pre Synaptic Potential(2ms) Post Synaptic Potential(4ms) : 100mV high, 4ms wide 200Å junction gap : provides access for different chemical messengers(hormone,--) : modify the excitability of the dendritic terminal gap : mediation by alcohol or drug
Chemical Inhibition Chemical messengers decreasing the excitability : inhibition : gamma aminobutylic acid(GABA) - stimulate potassium carrying protein - blocking sodium carrying : negative charges inside the axon negative spike PSP is negative : relatively weak; 10mV of PSP( instead of 100mV) GP generating junction gap : as in retina (distances between cells are small) : junction filled with chemical transmitters : chemical messengers carry GP across the gap
Electrical Gap Junction Electrical gap junction : 2ms time delay is intolerable : no need of alternation of excitability : no need of 200 Å : replaced by tight or electrical gap junction - axon terminal and dendrite are tightly interwined - finite but negligibly small gap - electrical signal gets across to the dendrite : transmit APs, GPs, but no inhibition Population of Synaptic Junctions : axon to dendrite & axon to soma junctions axon to axon junction & dendrite to dendrite junction
Dendrite Tree Model Tree model : levels 4,3,2,1,0 : level 4 (periphery of the tree) : level 0 (neuron body, soma) : signals from left to right (to a lower level) : funnel & modify messages : a single output axon collateral branches (upto 1000s) : can generate APs or GPs 그림 5-1
Attenuation in Dendrite Information flood? : PSP is 4ms wide 250 PSPs can flood the neuron : flood steady & meaningless stream : for 10,000 junctions 250PSPs/s/dendrite = 0.025 spikes/s/junction (40s) : spontaneous activity of 50 spikes/s five of these input can saturate neuron ?! Attenuation of PSP : dendrite tree - nonregenerating - unmyelinated : shunt leakage conductance G - long nonregenerative fiber - excessive error without G Figure 5-2

Number of Synaptic Junctions On a single Dendrite Tree : total surface area ; 116,000um2 : junction diameter :1um junction area 1um2 100,000 junctions on a dendrite tree signals from 10,000 different neurons is possible (10% use) Many junctions on soma directly
Position is everything in life? Importance of Position in dendrite junction : tree is democratic : important neuron should terminate closer to soma - impossible for genetic coding of junction location (10,000 junctions/neuron: beyond capabilities of DNA) : location dominance; gradually modifies with aging Learning and Memory : learning growth and/or movements of junctions : memory location and strength of junctions (more than one junction on same dendrite)
Human Memory 1 hour from short term memory to long term memory : accident victim; severe blow, electroconvulsive shock - partial or full erase of memories during last one hour - no effect on events experienced, synaptic junctions : plenty of room for new junctions(100,000 junctions) - anatomical evidence is lacking, difficult in vivo (theory) Forgetting:Junction migration(no evidence; theory) : new junction move of old junction to higher level - if not, tree will be saturated with junctions : forget as much as learn : person who cannot learn recent event, remarkably recall distant events : old dog; cannot teach new trick, don't forget old ones

Effects of Inhibitory PSP without inhibition with inhibition : threshold; -82mV : threshold; -72mV : -80mV; 10Hz AP : -80mV; no AP : -61mV; 50Hz AP : -61mV; 16.6Hz Fig. 3.2 Fig.5.6 Inhibition No AP or reduced rates of APs
Of what use is inhibition? Muscle contraction : muscles come in pairs(flexor,extensor) : doesn't stimulate at the same time : wired to function antagonistically : flexor(excitation) extensor(inhibition) extensor(excitation) flexor(inhibition)
Pattern of Inhibitory Inputs Weaker than excitatory PSP: 1/10 level : to be effective close to body, on the body : on the body not raise to 10mV ( because of large volume of body) : simultaneous inhibition block or reduce rate of APs Effective Inhibition : inhibitory PSP arrives first : sustained inhibition continuous barrage of inhibitory inputs
