GENERAL
NERVOUS SYSTEM
Divisions of the nervous system
The human nervous system consists of the central nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral
Nervous System (PNS).
CNS is composed of the brain (located in the cranial cavity) and the spinal cord (located in the
vertebral cavity), which serve as the main control centers for all body activities.
PNS is composed of nerves derived from the brain and spinal cord (12 pairs of cranial nerves and
31 pairs of spinal nerves) which serve as linkage between the CNS and the body.
PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
PNS can be subdivided into sensory (afferent) nerves and motor (efferent) nerves.
Sensory nerves send nerve impulse from the body to CNS to effector organs.
Motor nerves are divided into the somatic nervous system (SNS) which regulates the
voluntary contraction of the skeletal muscles, and autonomic nervous system (ANS) which
regulates the involuntary control of smooth, cardiac muscles and glands.

SYMPATHETIC PART
Sympathetic part
Sympathetic trunk
-paired. From external cranial base to coccyx.
-has 20-25 ganglia of sympathetic trunk associated by interganglionic branch.
-has parts asCervical,
thoracic,
lumbar and
sacral parts.
NB; all ganglia of sympathetic trunk gives
-Grey rami communicantes.
they are postganglionic fibers that reach the neighboring spinal nerve
and run within its branches. Join them.
-Visceral branches.
supply the visceral,
Has 10-12 thoracic ganglion, on the head of ribs below the parietal pleura.
Thoracic ganglion gives the Grey rami communicantes that connects all the thoracic
vertebral.
Visceral branches-thoracic cardiac
-thoracic pulmonary
-esophageal branches
-Thoracic aortic nerves(forms thoracic aortic plexus).
----------------- Greater splanchnic nerve-(from T5-T12,goes to coeliac plexus)
-Lesser splanchnic nerve-(from T10-T11,goes also to coeliac plexus)
-Least splanchnic nerve-(from T10,goes to Renal plexus)
Grey rami communicantes are post ganglionic fibers(axons)
Of neurons of ganglia of sympathetic trunk.
Lumber parthas 3-5 ganglia in the anterolateral surfaces of bodies of lumber vertebra.
covered by peritoneum and associated by interganglionic branches.
Grey rami communicantes join all lumber spinal nerves.

PLEXUSES
PARASYMPATHETIC PART
Parasympathetic division
Generally inhibits the effector organ (except in
digestive tract).
All pre and postganglionic fibers produce Ach and
are cholinergic.
Location of ganglia (terminal ganglia) is in or near
effector organ.
Pregarglionic fibers arise from the CNS (brain
stem) and sacral region of spinal cord (S2 S4).
Long preganglionic fibers.
Short postganglionic fibers.
Postganglionic fibers are limited to the head,
viscera of chest, abdomen and pelvis.
ADREGENIC RECEPTORS
(BETA RECEPTORS)
Beta-1 & Beta-2 Receptors:
beta-1 receptors:
well known for their effects in the heart
( increase rate and force of contraction).
induce muscle relaxation in the gut.
beta-2 receptors:
Induce bronchiodilation.
Induce smooth muscle relaxation in the gut.
Induce conversion of glycogen to glucose.
Stimulate secretion of insulin from pancreas.

INNERVATION OF HEART;
HEART
PARASYMPATHETIC
-superior and inferior cervical cardiac
from vagus nerve originates from
dorsal nucleus of vagus and makes
synapse at cardiac plexus.
-thoracic cardiac from vagus nerve.
SYMPATHETIC
-superior,middle and inferior cervical
cardiac nerves from cervical part of
sympathetic trunk.
-thoracic cardiac branch of
sympathetic trunk.
SYMPATHETIC SUPPLY
1.
mydriasis- contract pupillary dilator muscle (1
receptor)
2.
contract superior tarsal muscle to hold eyelid open
(1 receptor)
3.
Relax ciliary muscle for distant vision (2 receptors)
4.
Enhance aqueous humor formation (2 receptors)
5.
Inhibit aqueous humor formation (2 receptors)
PARASYMPATHETIC SUPPLY
focus eye for near vision (ciliary muscle contraction)
constrict
pupil
(miosis)-(pupillary
sphincter
contraction)
Enhance drainage of aqueous humor (trabecular
meshwork & canal of Schlemm)
All of these effects mediated by muscarinic receptors
SYMPATHETIC SUPPLY
A branch from the lower part
in the thoracic section of the
sympathetic trunk,the Least
splanchnic nerve.it arises
from the T10 Ganglion and
terminates at the Renal
plexus.
PARASYMPATHETIC
SUPPLY
The abdominal part of vagus
nerve gives renal branches
that go alongside their
corresponding arteries then
supply the kidney.
SENSORY SUPPLY
The right phrenic nerve
penetrate the diaphragm to
give branches to hepatic
capsule.
PARASYMPATHETIC SUPPLY
From the vagus nerve,the
anterior trunk in the
abdominal section of vagus
nerve arises hepatic
branches which goes btw
lesser omentum to supply
the liver.
SYMPATHETIC SUPPLY
From postganglionic fibers
from coeliac ganglion.
