- 1. Neuroscience Topic : Cranial Nerves
- 2. Introduction • The 12 pairs of cranial nerves arise from the brain inside the cranial cavity and pass through various foramina in the bones of the cranium. • Divides into 3 functions: Sensory nerves, Motor nerves and Mixed nerves.
- 3. • 12 pairs are:- – Olfactory nerve (I) – Optic nerve (II) – Oculomotor nerve (III) – Trochlear nerve (IV) – Trigeminal nerve (V) – Abducens nerve (VI) – Facial nerve (VII) – Vestibulocohlear nerve (VIII) – Glossopharyngeal nerve (IX) – Vagus nerve (X) – Accessory nerve (XI) – Hypoglossal nerve (XII) Introduction
- 7. Olfactory Nerve (I) • Sensory nerve • Contain axons that conduct impulses for olfaction, the sense of smell. • The olfactory epithelium occupies the superior part of the nasal cavity, covering the inferior surface of the cribriform plate and extending down along the superior nasal conchae.
- 9. Olfactory Nerve (I) • The olfactory receptors within the olfactory epithelium are bipolar neuron. • Each has a single odor sensitive dendrite projecting from one side of the cell body and an unmylinated axons extending from the other side. • Bundle of axons of olfactory receptors extend through about 20 olfactory foramina in the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone.
- 10. Olfactory Nerve (I) • Olfactory nerves end in the brain in paired masses of gray matter called the olfactory bulbs. Two extensions of the brain that rest on the cribriform plate. • Within the olfactory bulbs, the axon terminals of olfactory receptor form synapses with the dendrite and cell bodies of the next neurons in the olfactory pathway. • The axons of these neuron make up the olfactory tract, which extend posteriorly from the olfactory bulbs. • Axons in the olfactory tract end in the primary olfactory area in the temporal lobe of the temporal cerebral cortex.
- 11. Optic Nerve (II) • Sensory nerve • Contains axons that conduct nerve impulses for vision. • In the retina, rods and cones initiate visual signals and relay them to bipolar cells, which transmit the signals to ganglion cells. • Axons of all ganglion cells in the retina of each eye join to form an optic nerve, which pass through the optic foramen.
- 13. • Posterior to the eyeball, the two optic nerves merge to form the optic chiasm. • Within the chiasm, axons from the medial half of each eye cross to the opposite side, axons from the lateral half is remain on the same side. • Posterior to the chiasm, the regrouped axons, some from each eye, form the optic tracts. • Most axons in the optic tracts end in the lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus. Optic Nerve (II)
- 14. • There, they synapse with neuron whose axons extend to the primary visual area in the occipital lobe of the cerebral cortex. • A few axons pass through the optic chiasm and then extend to the superior colliculi of the midbrain. • They synapse with motor neurons that control the extrinsic (move the eyeball) and intrinsic eye muscles (control light intensity). Optic Nerve (II)
- 16. Muscles of eye balls (extra ocular muscles)
- 17. Oculomotor Nerve (III) • Motor nerve • Oculomotor nerve extends anteriorly and divides into superior and inferior branches, both of which pass through the superior orbital fissure into the orbit. • Axons in the superior branch innervate the superior rectus (extrinsic eyeball muscle) and the levator palpebrae superioris (muscles of upper eyelid).
- 18. • Axons in the inferior branch supply the medial rectus, inferior rectus and inferior oblique muscles (all extrinsic eyeball muscles). • Theses somatic motor neurons control movements of the eyeball and upper eyelid. • The inferior branch of the oculomotor nerve also provides parasympathetic innervation to intrinsic eyeball muscles, which are smooth muscles. Oculomotor Nerve (III)
- 19. • They include the ciliary muscles of the eyeball and the circular muscles (sphincter pupillae) of the iris. • Parasympathetic impulses propagate from oculomotor nucleus in the midbrain to the ciliary ganglion, a relay center of the autonomic nervous system. • From the ciliary ganglion, parasympathetic axons to the ciliary muscles, which adjust the lens for near vision. • Other parasympathetic axons stimulate the circular muscles of the iris to contract when bright light stimulate the eye, causing decrease in the size of the pupil (constriction). Oculomotor Nerve (III)
- 20. • Proprioceptive sensory axons from the extrinsic eyeball muscles begin their course towards the brain in the oculomotor nerve but eventually leave the nerve to join ophthalmic branch of trigeminal nerve. • They do not return to the brain in the oculomotor nerve. • The cell bodies of the sensory axons reside in the trigeminal ganglion, and they enter the midbrain via trigeminal nerve. • These axons convey nerve impulses for proprioception, the nonvisual perception of the movements and position of the body, from extrinsic eyeball muscles. Oculomotor Nerve (III)
- 21. Trochlear Nerve (IV) • Motor nerve • Smallest cranial nerve • Arises from posterior part of the brainstem.
- 22. • The motor neurons originate in the trochlear nucleus in the midbrain, and axons from the nucleus pass through the superior orbital fissure of orbit. • These somatic motor axons innervate the superior oblique muscles of the eyeball. (extrinsic eyeball muscle that control movement of the eyeball) • Proprioceptive sensory axons from the superior oblique muscle begin their course toward the brain in the trochlear nerve but eventually leave the nerve to join ophtalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve. • They do not return to the brain in the trochlear nerve. • The cells body of sensory neurons reside in the trigeminal ganglion, and they enter the midbrain via trigeminal nerve. Trochlear Nerve (IV)
- 23. • Like those of the oculomotor nerve, these axons convey nerve impulses for proprioception, the nonvisual perception of the movements and position of the body, from extrinsic eyeball muscles. Trochlear Nerve (IV)
