“…our knowledge of the world is based on our biological equipment for perceiving the world, that perception is a constructive process that depends not only on the stimulus but also on the mental apparatus of the perceiver—the organization of the sensory and motor systems in the brain.”

“An emergent property is a new behaviour or phenomenon which is found at higher levels of organization as a result of
interactions at a lower level.”

The nervous system is a hierarchical system.
Each level has its own emergent properties
New characteristics and functions result from the complex organization of
the entire system.
Interactions and arrangements between the
components produce behavior that cannot be
performed by the individual parts.

Nissl stain• Named for German neurologist:
Franz Nissl (1860-1919)• Methylene blue – Cresyl violet – Neutral red –
Toluidine blue (cationic dyes)
• Nissl bodies/substance = cytoplasmic granules in neuronal soma
• By 1950’s Nissl bodies are aggregations of rough ER– Staining the high concentrations of rRNA
• Good for distinguishing neurons from glia more rough ER in neurons
• Great to visualize the cytoarchitecture of neurons in different brain regions
• Under pathological conditions Nissl bodies dissolve or disappear (chromatolysis.)

rER is where mRNA is translated and proteins are
synthesized. Nissl stains these structures due to high
concentrations of rRNA.

Golgi v. Ramón y Cajal
Reticular Theory-Golgi• Continuous syncytial network• Nerve fibers, dendrites and neuronal cells
directly connected to each other by cytoplasmic bridges
• Neuronal cell bodies provide nourishment.• Ironically, Golgi stain led to demise of theory
Neuron Doctrine-Ramón y Cajal• Neurons are not continuous• Neurons communicate by contact, not
continuity• Golgi stain – identification of subcellular units
of the neuron• Soma• Axon• Dendrite
– Circuitry• Electron microscopy
– Synapse (not gap junctions)• Neurons were not continuous
“Same data; different conclusion.”

“This drawing by Santiago Ramon y Cajal first appeared in volume two, part two of Cajal's Textura del SistemaNervioso del Hombre y de los Vertebrados, published in Madrid in 1904.
The image shows the six layers of the mouse neocortex, labeled A through F, in Cajal's hand.
Cajal's drawings provided the foundation of modern neuroanatomy by showing that the nervous system is composed of individual nerve cells, as opposed to a web of continuous elements”

“Many lines of evidence suggest that mitochondria have a central role in ageing-related neurodegenerative
diseases. Mitochondria are critical regulators of cell death, a key feature of neurodegeneration. Mutations in mitochondrial DNA and oxidative stress both contribute to ageing, which is the greatest risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. In all major examples of these diseases there is strong evidence that mitochondrial dysfunction occurs early and acts causally in disease pathogenesis. Moreover, an impressive number of disease-specific proteins interact with mitochondria. Thus, therapies targeting basic mitochondrial processes, such as energy metabolism or free-radical generation, or specific interactions of disease-related proteins with mitochondria, hold great promise.”

NATURE REVIEWS | NEUROSCIENCE VOLUME 13 | MAY 2012
Major psychiatric illnesses such as mood disorders and schizophrenia are chronic, recurrent mental illnesses that affect the lives of millions of individuals. Although these disorders have traditionally been viewed as ‘neurochemical diseases’, it is now clear that they are associated with impairments of synaptic plasticity and cellular resilience. Although most patients with these disorders do not have classic mitochondrial disorders, there is a growing body of evidence to suggest that impaired mitochondrial function may affect key cellular processes, thereby altering synaptic functioning and contributing to the atrophic changes that underlie the deteriorating long-term course of these illnesses.

“In the case of neurodegenerative tauopathies — a group of disorders that includes Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and the frontotemporal dementias (FTDs) —neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) … twisted ribbons or other conformations of aberrantly phosphorylated forms of the microtubule-associated protein (MAP) tau are the diagnostic hallmark lesions in the CNS.”
“Moreover, added complexity may come from the fact that, aside from its well-established role in promoting the stabilization of microtubules (MTs), tau may have additional functions as a result of its interactions with other structures and enzymes”
Ballatore, C., et al (2007)

Tau (also known as MAPT) facilitates microtubule stabilization within cells and is particularly abundant in neurons.
Microtubules serve as 'tracks' that are essential for normal trafficking of cellular cargo along the lengthy axonal projections of neurons.
b | It is thought that tau function is compromised in Alzheimer's disease and other tauopathies. This probably results from both tau hyperphosphorylation, which reduces the binding of tau to microtubules, and the sequestration of hyperphosphorylated tau into neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), which reduces the amount of tau that is available to bind microtubules.
The loss of tau function leads to microtubule instability and reduced axonal transport, which could contribute to neuropathology.

WHAT IS THE BLOOD BRAIN BARRIER?
In 1885, the German scientist Paul Ehrlich (1854–1915) injected vital dyes using parenteral routes in adult animals. All organs were stained, except the brain and spinal cord [1]. The first conclusion was that the central nervous system (CNS) possessed specific features that resulted in a lack or low affinity for vital dyes.

THREE TYPES OF CAPILLARY VESSELSContinuous/Tight Fenestrated/Pores Sinusoidal
Impermeable and only allows for the passage of water, ions and glucose.
The pores (or fenestrations) make the capillary permeable
to larger molecules.
There are extensive intercellular gaps that allow large molecules
(plasma) to cross.
Nervous system, skin, muscles
Small intestine, kidneys
Lymph nodes, bone marrow

Paracellular route allows water soluble
substances (polar) to be transferred between
endothelial cells. (Note: tight junctions (TJ)
are not present.)

An important comment about tight junctions (TJ):
Disruption of the tight junctions (TJs) of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a hallmark of many CNS pathologies, including stroke, HIV encephalitis, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis and bacterial
meningitis.
