1 CAMPBELL BIOLOGY TENTH EDITION 48 Reece Urry Cain Wasserman Minorsky Jackson Neurons, Synapses, and Signaling Lecture Presentation by Nicole Tunbridge and Kathleen Fitzpatrick 1. Overview of Neurons Communication in Neurons Neurons use two types of signals to communicate: electrical signals (long-distance) and chemical signals (short-distance) Interpreting signals in the nervous system involves sorting a complex set of paths and connections Processing of information takes place in simple clusters of neurons called ganglia or a more complex organization of neurons called a brain 1
2 Neuron Structure and Function Most of a neuron s organelles are in the cell body Most neurons have dendrites, highly branched extensions that receive signals from other neurons The axon is typically a much longer extension that transmits signals to other cells at synapses The cone-shaped base of an axon is called the axon hillock Figure 48.2 Nucleus Cell body Presynaptic cell Dendrites hillock The synaptic terminal of one axon passes information across the synapse in the form of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters A synapse is a junction between an axon and another cell Synapse Synaptic terminals Synaptic terminals Neurotransmitter Postsynaptic cell Information is transmitted from a presynaptic cell (a neuron) to a postsynaptic cell (a neuron, muscle, or gland cell) Most neurons are nourished or insulated by cells called glia or glial cells 80 µm Glia Cell bodies of neurons 2
3 Introduction to Information Processing Nervous systems process information in three stages: sensory input, integration, and motor output Siphon Sensory input Sensor Integration Proboscis Motor output Processing center Effector Sensors detect external stimuli and internal conditions and transmit information along sensory neurons Sensory information is sent to the brain or ganglia, where interneurons integrate the information Motor output leaves the brain or ganglia via motor neurons, which trigger muscle or gland activity Sensory neuron Interneuron Motor neuron Cell body Dendrites Many animals have a complex nervous system that consists of: A central nervous system (CNS) where integration takes place; this includes the brain and a nerve cord A peripheral nervous system (PNS), which carries information into and out of the CNS The neurons of the PNS, when bundled together, form nerves 3
4 Resting Potential of Neurons Ion pumps and ion s establish the resting of a neuron Every cell has a voltage (difference in electrical charge) across its plasma membrane called a membrane The resting is the membrane of a neuron not sending signals Changes in membrane act as signals, transmitting and processing information How is the Resting Potential Established? In a mammalian neuron at resting, the concentration of is highest inside the cell, while the concentration of Na + is highest outside the cell Sodium-potassium pumps use the energy of ATP to maintain these and Na + gradients across the plasma membrane These concentration gradients represent chemical energy The opening of ion s in the plasma membrane converts chemical to electrical A neuron at resting contains many open s and fewer open Na + s; diffuses out of the cell The resulting buildup of negative charge within the neuron is the major source of membrane 4

6 Modeling the Resting Potential Resting can be modeled by an artificial membrane separating two chambers that is permeable to only one of the ions (e.g.,, not Cl - ) The concentration of KCl is higher in the inner chamber and lower in the outer chamber K diffuses down its gradient to the outer chamber Negative charge (Cl ) cannot diffuse builds up in the inner chamber At equilibrium, both the electrical and chemical gradients are balanced Figure 48.7 Inner chamber 90 mv Outer chamber Inner chamber 62 mv Outer chamber 140 mm KCI 5 mm KCI 15 mm NaCl 150 mm NaCI Cl Potassium Cl Artificial membrane Na + Sodium (a) Membrane selectively permeable to (b) Membrane selectively permeable to Na + The Nernst Equation The equilibrium (E ion ) is the membrane voltage for a particular ion at equilibrium and can be calculated using the Nernst equation E ion = 62 mv (log[ion] outside /[ion] inside ) The equilibrium of (E K ) is negative, while the equilibrium of Na + (E Na ) is positive In a resting neuron, the currents of and Na + are equal and opposite, and the resting across the membrane remains steady 6
7 Membrane (mv) 11/3/ Generation of the Action Potential Graded Potentials Graded s are changes in polarization where the magnitude of the change varies with strength of the stimulus These are not the nerve signals that travel along axons, but they do have an effect on the generation of nerve signals Influenced by opening, or closing of gated ion s Ions Change in membrane (voltage) Ion Gate closed: No ions flow across membrane. Gate open: Ions flow through. Hyperpolarization Hyperpolarization is an increase in magnitude of the membrane e.g., when gated s open, diffuses out, making the inside of the cell more negative Stimulus Graded hyperpolarizations produced by two stimuli that increase membrane permeability to Threshold 100 Resting Hyperpolarizations Time (msec) 7
8 Membrane (mv) Membrane (mv) 11/3/2014 Depolarization Opening other types of ion s triggers a depolarization, a reduction in the magnitude of the membrane For example, depolarization occurs if gated Na + s open and Na + diffuses into the cell Stimulus Graded depolarizations produced by two stimuli that increase membrane permeability to Na + Threshold 100 Resting Depolarizations Time (msec) Action Potentials If a depolarization shifts the membrane sufficiently, it results in a massive change in membrane voltage called an action Action s have a constant magnitude, are allor-none, and transmit signals over long distances They arise because some ion s are voltagegated, opening or closing when the membrane passes a certain level Strong depolarizing stimulus Threshold Resting Time (msec) Action 6 Generation of Action Potentials: A Closer Look At resting : 1.

Voltage-gated Na + s open first and Na + flows into the cell 3. During the rising phase, the threshold is crossed, and the membrane increases 4. During the falling phase, voltage-gated Na + s become inactivated; voltage-gated s open, and flows out of the cell 5. During the undershoot, membrane permeability to is at first higher than at rest, then voltage-gated s close and resting is restored The Refractory Period During the refractory period after an action, a second action cannot be initiated The refractory period is a result of a temporary inactivation of the Na + s This forces the action to spread in only one direction down the axon away from the cell body 9
10 Conduction of Action Potentials At the site where the action is generated (usually the axon hillock) an electrical current depolarizes the neighboring region of the axon membrane Action s travel in only one direction: toward the synaptic terminals Inactivated Na s behind the zone of depolarization prevent the action from traveling backwards Figure Action Na + Plasma membrane Cytosol Action Na + Action Na + Evolutionary Adaptations of Structure The speed of an action increases with the axon s diameter In vertebrates, axons are insulated by a myelin sheath, which causes an action s speed to increase Myelin sheaths are made by glia oligodendrocytes in the CNS and Schwann cells in the PNS 10

Communication Across the Synapse 11
12 5 µm 11/3/2014 Neurons communicate with other cells at synapses At electrical synapses, the electrical current flows from one neuron to another through gap junctions At chemical synapses, a chemical neurotransmitter carries information between neurons Most synapses are chemical synapses Postsynaptic neuron Synaptic terminals of presynaptic neurons The presynaptic neuron synthesizes and packages the neurotransmitter in synaptic vesicles located in the synaptic terminal The action causes the release of the neurotransmitter The neurotransmitter diffuses across the synaptic cleft and is received by the postsynaptic cell Figure Presynaptic cell Postsynaptic cell 1 Synaptic vesicle containing neurotransmitter Synaptic cleft Postsynaptic membrane Presynaptic membrane 3 4 Ca 2+ 2 Voltage-gated Ca 2+ Ligand-gated ion s Na + 12
13 Membrane (mv) 11/3/2014 Generation of Postsynaptic Potentials Direct synaptic transmission involves binding of neurotransmitters to ligand-gated ion s in the postsynaptic cell Neurotransmitter binding causes ion s to open, generating a postsynaptic Postsynaptic s fall into two categories Excitatory postsynaptic s (EPSPs) are depolarizations that bring the membrane toward threshold Inhibitory postsynaptic s (IPSPs) are hyperpolarizations that move the membrane farther from threshold Summation of Postsynaptic Potentials Most neurons have many synapses on their dendrites and cell body A single EPSP is usually too small to trigger an action in a postsynaptic neuron If two EPSPs are produced in rapid succession, an effect called temporal summation occurs In spatial summation, EPSPs produced nearly simultaneously by different synapses on the same postsynaptic neuron add together The combination of EPSPs through spatial and temporal summation can trigger an action Through summation, an IPSP can counter the effect of an EPSP The summed effect of EPSPs and IPSPs determines whether an axon hillock will reach threshold and generate an action E 1 Terminal branch of presynaptic neuron E 1 E 1 E 1 E 2 E 2 E 2 E 2 I Postsynaptic neuron I hillock I I 0 Threshold of axon of postsynaptic neuron Resting Action Action 70 E 1 E 1 E 1 E 1 E 1 + E 2 E 1 I E 1 + I (a) Subthreshold, no (b) Temporal summation (c) Spatial summation (d) Spatial summation summation of EPSP and IPSP 13
14 Modulated Signaling at Synapses In some synapses, a neurotransmitter binds to a receptor that is metabotropic In this case, movement of ions through a depends on one or more metabolic steps Binding of a neurotransmitter to a metabotropic receptor activates a signal transduction pathway in the postsynaptic cell involving a second messenger Compared to ligand-gated s, the effects of second-messenger systems have a slower onset but last longer Neurotransmitters A single neurotransmitter may bind specifically to more than a dozen different receptors Receptor activation and postsynaptic response cease when neurotransmitters are cleared from the synaptic cleft Neurotransmitters are removed by simple diffusion, inactivation by enzymes, or recapture into the presynaptic neuron Figure PRESYNAPTIC NEURON Neurotransmitter Neurotransmitter receptor POSTSYNAPTIC NEURON Inactivating enzyme (a) Enzymatic breakdown of neurotransmitter in the synaptic cleft Neurotransmitter receptor Neurotransmitter Neurotransmitter transport (b) Reuptake of neurotransmitter by presynaptic neuron 14
15 Acetylcholine Acetylcholine is a common neurotransmitter in vertebrates and invertebrates It is involved in muscle stimulation, memory formation, and learning Vertebrates have two major classes of acetylcholine receptor, one that is ligand gated and one that is metabotropic A number of toxins disrupt acetylcholine neurotransmission These include the nerve gas, sarin, and the botulism toxin produced by certain bacteria Other Neurotransmitters Acetylcholine is just one of more than 100 known neurotransmitters The remainder fall into four classes: amino acids, biogenic amines, neuropeptides, and gases Amino Acids Amino acid neurotransmitters are active in CNS & PNS Known to function in the CNS are: Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) Glutamate Glycine 15
16 Biogenic Amines Biogenic amines include: Epinephrine Norepinephrine Dopamine Serotonin They are active in the CNS and PNS Neuropeptides Several neuropeptides, relatively short chains of amino acids, also function as neurotransmitters Neuropeptides include substance P and endorphins, which both affect our perception of pain Opiates bind to the same receptors as endorphins and can be used as painkillers Gases Gases such as nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) are local regulators in the PNS Unlike most neurotransmitters, NO is not stored in cytoplasmic vesicles, but is synthesized on demand It is broken down within a few seconds of production Although inhaling CO can be deadly, the vertebrate body synthesizes small amounts of it, some of which is used as a neurotransmitter 16
