Histology of Nervous Tissue Parts of a Neuron

Neuron Structure – Cell Body (= Soma)
contains the usual cellular organelles synthesis & metabolism occurs primarily in the soma the outer cell membrane contains the receptors for
incoming information (stimuli) most cell bodies are located within the CNS
clusters of neuron cell bodies in the CNS are called nucleinuclei clusters of neuron cell bodies in the PNS are called gangliaganglia

Neuron Structure - Processes
dendrites short, tapering, highly branched
processes or extensions from soma
not myelinated the location for some cell
organelles sites of receptive or input regions transfer information to the cell
body transmit graded potentials - not
action potentials
![Page 6: Lab 08 Neuron Histology & Brain](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545dbdaaaf7959be0e8b4e3d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Neuron Structure - Processes
axons a long thin cylindrical cytoplasmic
projection starts at a cone-shaped region – the axon
hillock may be long (1 meter) or short (1 mm) a long axon is called a nerve fiber transmit information away from the soma ends in many branches
known as axonal terminals may be 10,000 on one nerve form synapses (junctions) with neighboring
neurons or with effector cells (muscles or glands)
![Page 7: Lab 08 Neuron Histology & Brain](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545dbdaaaf7959be0e8b4e3d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Neuron Structure - Axons (continued)
filled with axoplasm and surrounded by an axolemma
action potentials start at the axon hillock (trigger zone); travel along the axon to the axon terminal
axon terminal has the secretory component
Action Potential (nerve impulse) arrival causes the release of stored neurotransmitters
neurotransmitters transfer the message across a synapse to the next neuron or to an effector
neurotransmitters can excite or inhibit the action of the next cell in the pathway

Histology of Neurons – Myelin Sheath
the myelin sheath lipid-rich, segmented covering on an
axon primarily along the larger, longer axons dendrites are never myelinated myelin protects & electrically insulates
axon increases the speed of nerve impulses
myelinated fibers conduct impulses 10-150x faster than unmyelinated fibers
150 m/sec vs. 1 m/sec
