Study Notes
Gustation
- Sense of taste
- Chemicals detected by chemoreceptors in the oral cavity
- Allows sampling of food and drink consumed
- Aided by the olfactory sense
Organization of Gustatory System
- Papillae possess taste buds
- Found on the anterior surface of the tongue and the soft palate
- Taste buds house gustatory cells (various types) and support cells
- Gustatory cells are the taste receptor cells
Papillae of the Tongue
- Foliate: Leaf-like, less developed in humans, functions mostly in infancy and early childhood
- Filiform: Thread-like, short and spiky, found on anterior 2/3rds of tongue, don't have taste buds, detect texture and manipulate food
- Circumvallate: Mushroom-shaped, about 10-12, create a boundary between anterior and posterior aspects, great concentration of taste buds
- Fungiform: Mushroom-shaped, about 300, primarily on anterior margin of tongue, contain a few taste buds
Taste Buds
- Taste pores open to oral cavity
- Dissolved taste-producing chemicals (tastants) come into contact with gustatory cells
- Gustatory cells are packaged in taste buds
- Basal cells are stem cells
- Transitional cells are support cells
- Nerve fibers are found between cells
- Life span of a taste receptor cell is ~10 days
Gustatory Cells
- Specialized neuroepithelium
- Dendritic ending is formed by gustatory microvilli
- Tastants interact with receptors on microvilli
- Four types of cells
- Type I: Respond to Na+ ions (salt)
- Type II: Transduce sweet, umami, and bitter; use GPCRs to detect tastants
- Type III: Respond to sour stimuli
- Type IV: Serves as the stem cell
Gustatory Pathway
- Gustatory cells contact sensory neurons of the facial nerve (CN VII) and glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX)
- CN VII innervates anterior 2/3rds of tongue
- CN IX innervates posterior 1/3rd of tongue
- CN X innervates epiglottis and lower pharynx
- Axons project to medulla oblongata to 2° neurons projecting to thalamus
- Tertiary neurons to cortical gustatory area
- Other neurons project from thalamus to hypothalamus and limbic system
- Processes behavioral aspects associated with taste and smell
Five Primary Tastes
- Salty: Stimulated by chemical salts, Na+ enters through ENaC channels, found on Type I gustatory cells
- Sour: Caused by free H+, H+ binds to and blocks K+ channels, reducing passive movement of K+, found on Type III gustatory cells
- Sweet: Specific configuration of glucose, activates a GPCR to cause depolarization via second messenger cascade, found on Type II gustatory cells
- Umami: Triggered by amino acids (esp. glutamate), activates a GPCR to cause depolarization via second messenger cascade, found on Type II gustatory cells
- Bitter: Chemically diverse group (including alkaloids), activates a GPCR to cause depolarization via second messenger cascade, found on Type II gustatory cells
Other Taste Receptors
- Taste perception influenced by other receptors (especially olfactory)
- Carbon Dioxide receptor (Car4)
- Fatty receptors
The Taste Bud Tongue Map Myth
- 1901 D. Hänig published paper containing data on taste sensitivity in different regions of the tongue
- Data misinterpreted, leading to the "tongue map" myth
Eye Structure
- Almost spherical organ
- Located within the orbit of the skull
- Cushioned by orbital fat
- Three principal layers (outside to inside): fibrous, vascular, and nervous
Protective Structures of the Eye
- Eyebrows: Thick hairs preventing sweat from entering the eyes
- Eyelashes: Protect the front of the eye from foreign objects
- Eyelids: Movable coverings of the eye, including the conjunctiva, tarsal glands, and palpebral fissure; prevent tear overflow
- Lacrimal caruncle: Region medial to eyelids, contains ciliary glands producing a gritty substance
Conjunctiva
- Specialized stratified squamous epithelium
- Continuous lining of the external anterior surface of the eye and internal eyelids
- Two parts (ocular & palpebral conjunctiva)
- Contains numerous goblet cells and is highly vascular and innervated
- Doesn't cover cornea
Lacrimal Apparatus
- Produces, collects, and drains tears
- Lacrimal fluid lubricates and cleanses the eye surface
- Contains antibacterial lysozyme
- Lacrimal gland located in superolateral depression of the orbit, continuously produces tears
- Blinking washes tears towards lacrimal caruncle
- Tears pass through lacrimal puncta, canaliculi, into the lacrimal sac, and then through the nasolacrimal duct into the nasal cavity
Fibrous (External) Tunic
- Sclera: Posterior structure, "white" of the eye, continuous with the dura mater that surrounds the optic nerve, providing eye shape and protection; attachment point for extrinsic eye muscles
- Cornea: Anterior structure, convex transparent structure, composed of epithelium, avascular, supplied nutrients from lacrimal gland (anteriorly) and aqueous humor (posteriorly), allows light passage and refracts light
Extrinsic Eye Muscles
- Allow eye movement, keeping eyes stable in the orbit
- Attached to the fibrous tunic
Vascular Tunic
- Highly vascularized, contains intrinsic muscles of the eye
- Three parts (Choroid, Ciliary body, and Iris)
- Choroid: Posterior vascular region; provides nutrients to the retina; many melanocytes to absorb extraneous light
- Ciliary Body: Anterior to the choroid, contains ciliary muscles that alter the shape of the lens, smooth muscle connected to suspensory ligaments, produces aqueous humor
- Iris: Anterior structure, colored portion of eye, controls light entering the eye, has two smooth muscles (sphincter and dilator pupillae)-- both with sympathetic innervation
Iris
- Thin pigmented smooth muscle
- Controls amount of light entering the eye (through the pupil)
- Pupil is opening in the center of iris through which light passes
- Two smooth muscles:
- Sphincter pupillae—circular, contractile; parasympathetic innervation
- Dilator pupillae—radial, dilating; sympathetic innervation
Retina
- Innermost tunic, two layers
- Pigmented Layer: Adjacent to the choroid, provides Vitamin A to the neural layer, absorbs light before it reaches the neural layer
- Neural Layer: Innermost layer, contains photoreceptor cells and associated neurons, transduces light energy into nerve signals
Cells of the Neural Layer
- Photoreceptor Cells: Rods and cones; convert light energy to nerve signals, generate graded potentials
- Bipolar Cells: Lie between photoreceptors and ganglion cells. Fewer cells than photoreceptors; converge visual input onto the ganglion cells; generate graded potentials
- Ganglion Cells: Innermost layer of neurons; axons to CNS via optic nerve; generate action potentials
- Other Cells: Horizontal cells, amacrine cells (integrate visual input between photoreceptors/bipolar/ganglion cells; generate graded potentials
Other Cells
- Photosensitive ganglionic cells: Found in neural layer, light-sensitive, possess melanopsin, help reset internal circadian clock, regulate pupil size, and regulate melatonin production
- Retinal pigment epithelial cells: In pigmented layer to capture light, contain melanin
Components of the Retina
- Distribution of Rods and Cones: Not uniform; cones concentrated in fovea; rods concentrated in periphery
- Optic Disc: Contains no photoreceptors; point where ganglion axons exit retina to form optic nerve; also known as the "blind spot."
- Macula Lutea: Directly in line with the pupil, lateral to the optic disc; contains fovea centralis—high concentration of cone cells, area of sharpest vision
- Peripheral Retina: Contains mostly rods, effective in low light
The Lens
- Transparent structure focusing light onto the retina
- Shape determines the degree of refraction
- Modified by suspensory ligaments and ciliary muscles
- Accommodation: Flattened lens for distant vision; rounded lens for near vision
Refraction
- Different mediums affect light speed
- Light bends (refracts) when transitioning between mediums
- Lens shape determines the direction of refracted light:
- Concave lenses cause light to bend away from a focal point
- Convex lenses cause light to bend toward a focal point
Cavities of the Eye
- Posterior Cavity: Posterior to the lens and anterior to the retina; filled with vitreous humor (gelatinous fluid); maintains eye shape, holds retina against choroid, transmits light
- Anterior Cavity: Contains aqueous humor, anterior to the lens and posterior to the cornea; filtrate from blood plasma; produced by ciliary bodies; subdivided into posterior and anterior chambers; provides nutrients to cells of lens and cornea.
Focusing Light on the Retina
- Bending of light (refraction) to focus on light-sensitive cells of the retina
- Each structure (and liquid) that the light passes through affects its course
- Cornea is the initial focusing structure
- Lens modification (accommodation) adjusts for near or far vision; shapes the lens
- Focal point of collected light is the fovea centralis—high density of cones
Rods and Cones
- Rods: One type; outer segment with membrane-bound discs; concentrated in periphery; high sensitivity, low acuity; responsible for vision in dim light; high convergence on ganglion cells
- Cones: Three types; outer segment with folds of plasma membrane; concentrated in fovea centralis; low sensitivity, high acuity; responsible for color vision; low convergence on ganglion cells
Photopigment
- Light-absorbing photoreceptor responsible for initiating light energy transduction
- Found in the membranes of the discs
- Two parts:
- Opsin: G-protein coupled receptor; several types, each stimulated over a range of light wavelengths (Rhodopsin in rods, Photopsins in cones)
- Retinal: Vitamin A derivative; ligand to opsin; two states dependent on light absorption
Color Perception
- Dependent on the ratio of stimulation of the various types of cones in response to different wavelengths of light
- Example: Wavelength of 560 nm stimulates red cones maximally, green cones to a lesser degree, and blue cones do not stimulate
Receptive Fields
- Area where a photon can stimulate a single ganglion cell
- Larger receptive fields when more photoreceptors converge on a single ganglion cell.
- Smaller receptive fields when fewer photoreceptors converge on a single ganglion cell.
Convergence and Acuity
- Acuity is dependent on the number of photoreceptors converging on a single ganglion cell
- Low convergence yields more acuity
- High convergence yields less acuity
- Low convergence yields smaller receptive fields and greater acuity
- High convergence yields larger receptive fields and reduced acuity
Dark Adaptation
- Eyes' ability to adjust to low light
- Dependent on rods and cones
- Cones adapt quickly, requiring more light
- Rods adapt slowly, requiring less light
- Gives rise to photopic (cone-dependent) and scotopic (rod-dependent) vision
