Presentation Transcript

  1. Anatomical Components of Limbic system • Olfactory Pathway • Amygdaloid complex • Hippocampal formation • Limbic lobe • Septal nuclei • Hypothalamus • Mammillary bodies • Ant Nu Thalamus • Habenular nu • Mid brain

  2. Olfactory Pathway • Olfactory nerves • Bulb • Tract • Pyriform area • Ant perforated sub • Para terminal gyrus

  3. Amygdaloid Complex

  4. Amygdaloid Complex • The amygdala is collections of nuclei • Situated in the roof of the inferior horn of lateral ventricle • Cortico-medial • Olfactory • Baso-lateral • Parahippocampal gyrus

  5. Striaterminalis • Is the sole efferent of Amygdaloid complex • Supra commissural • Septal nu • Commissural • Via ant comm opp amygdala • Sub commissural • Pre optic and ant nu of hypothalamus

  6. Function of Amygdaloid complex • Agonistic behavior • Aggression • Fear • Bilateral ablation of amygdala the animal exhibits loss of aggression • Docile • Occasional hypersexual behavior

  7. Papez Circuit Hippocampal Formation Cingulate Gyrus cingulum fornix thalamocortical radiation (Ant Limb of IC) Mammillary Body Anterior Thalamic Nuclei mammillothalamic tract

  8. Hippocampal formation • Hippocampus • Dentate gyrus

  9. Connections of hippocampus • Afferents • 1. from cingulated gyrus via cingulum • 2. from septal nuclei and indusium griseum retracing through the fornix. • 3. commissural fibers from the opposite hippocampus via the commissure of the fornix. • 4. profuse connection from the entorhinal area.(para-hippocampal gyrus ) • Efferents • the fornix forms the sole efferent projection fibers of the hippocampus

  10. Connections of the fornix. • Fibres of dorsal fornix make synapses with the neurons of gyrus fasciolaris, indusium griseum, cingulated gyrus and reach the septal nuclei of septum pellucidum through the fibres of corpus callosum. • Pre-commissural fornix provides connections to the paraterminal gyrus, pre-optic and anterior hypothalamic nuclei. • Fibres of post commissural fornix terminate in the anterior nucleus of thalamus. Other hypothalamic nuclei mammailary body and reach hebenullar nucleus via stria medularis thalami.

  11. Fear & Rage

  12. Hypersexual
