00:06 Alright, well we get things going . I don't want to spend a

00:08 of time on this. I already you all about some philosophies about how

00:13 look at, oh my God, so loud, how to look at

00:17 , how to approach them. Uh so on. And so this is

00:21 to give you a sense of what on the exam average was about a

00:25 so that you can see that's pretty , right? But it's consistent with

00:29 semesters. You know, it's a exam, It's tough material. We

00:33 it's tough and so we just kind muscled through. I think I've told

00:36 class before the story of organic chemistry . Have I ever told you the

00:41 about more organic chemistry James? Look me like, I don't think

00:44 I tell a lot of stories, I can't remember. I took organic

00:48 in my junior little year, like people do, I think it was

00:50 junior Um and I had a professor hated students at least. That's what

00:55 thought because he didn't give partial And so you don't take an exam

00:59 you draw your molecule and if it the way that he wanted you to

01:02 it the first time, he just it off. So on our second

01:05 , I think the average was a , you know, so if you

01:09 a zero you have to see, , this is why we don't like

01:14 chemists or I should say this is I don't like organic chemists alright.

01:19 but you have to put everything in , right? They learn anything in

01:22 class now because he sucks. But we do is we look at something

01:26 this and we said all right. Everyone kind of didn't do well.

01:31 can kind of see that curve. looked at last semester's and there's wasn't

01:34 as weird as you always were. It kind of does this up and

01:38 thing, but it still had the kind of like everything is kind of

01:42 over here towards the left. And what we do, we look at

01:46 , we dust ourselves off and okay, this is when we go

01:49 and we analyze and say, what we study? How did we

01:51 What did I not know? What I know? What did I

01:54 I know that sort of thing and we make adjustments. Alright. I

01:58 think this was the hardest test for semester. It's just the material lends

02:03 to that. That's that's the nature neuroscience. Alright. But what I

02:08 to show you here in this and is where the analytical stuff, you

02:13 , gets in. So this is each unit right with itself. And

02:18 can see part of the reason uh can see kind of there's this this

02:23 as we go along, how people kind of dropping out of class and

02:27 doing stuff and you can kind of their grades over there, the very

02:29 end, right? And so it's of dragging each unit down. So

02:33 first unit because like everyone kind of what's going on because this is stuff

02:36 seen before. And second, he like, oh, this is kind

02:39 new and kind of scary. Third is like holy crap. I don't

02:42 what the hell I'm doing what I . I really even want to go

02:44 nursing school, right? And but let me show you. So

02:48 that's individual units. But let me you what happens if you look at

02:53 , you're like cumulative. Alright, this is the first unit by

02:58 then the 1st and 2nd unit then the 1st, 2nd, 3rd

03:02 together. Do you see any Not really. You can use the

03:10 line and basically the average is more less very consistent. And so what

03:15 shows you and I want this to of sink into your brain because you're

03:19 used to looking at individual numbers and out about individual numbers is that you're

03:23 seeing the bigger picture. Is that time things don't really change all that

03:28 . Now for an individual, it change a lot, right? You

03:30 do really well in one examining the out on the second exam and then

03:33 really well in the third exam in grand scheme of things as a

03:37 You guys are more or less being consistent and so what you don't do

03:41 you don't panic. What you do you say All right. I didn't

03:45 how I did. I just gotta what I did so I can do

03:50 because in the grand scheme of you know, there's not gonna be

03:53 lot of change that's going to take kind of keep going. And so

03:59 is kind of what your grades look and this is what I emailed you

04:02 yesterday. So this is pulling out , you know, everything up to

04:07 point. This is what your grade like. I said, all

04:10 Most of you guys have been trained entire life to believe in death

04:14 That's a fancy word for saying 90 70 60 50. You gotta gotta

04:17 Right, so an asian 90 not in sciences. That's not how

04:21 works. And science is this is we do, we do this big

04:24 curve then we figure out where all grades belong. So right now and

04:30 is an a what really? Mine is that makes me a little

04:34 better. No, No. So you're now at 83, you're gonna

04:41 there going, Oh poor poor Woe is me. Whoa. You

04:46 , I got a 67 do you I can get a b can I

04:51 up to now? Yeah. That's how science, that's what we

04:56 in science is we're asking the question how well are you doing relatively

05:01 I don't like hundreds because it doesn't me anything about whether or not you're

05:05 material, it just tells me you regurgitate simple knowledge stuff. Right

05:10 I've got boxes and circles over there the other side and part of this

05:14 there are things about this that drives nuts. I mean it shouldn't be

05:17 far down but I know who to for that. Not y'all.

05:22 blaming some other people. I'm not me either. Alright. But this

05:27 here that's that's really really small. that's your D range right now.

05:31 , So if you are over here the blue circle, look how easy

05:35 is to get over here in the . Range. Now, if you

05:39 the math right though, if everyone bumping up over here, what could

05:42 to these numbers? They're going to over a little bit this way

05:45 And that's what I'm saying is by third exam, what's going to happen

05:48 by the fourth exam, that number ? There is probably gonna be about

05:51 87. This number is probably gonna about a 71 or 72. This

05:56 be about a 55. But you , have you guys been doing the

06:00 credit? Do you think that extra gonna bump you up into the next

06:06 ? I got one head nodding because know how to do the math?

06:10 ? Because remember am I adding in extra, want to figure out this

06:16 without extra credit? So when you your extra credit, what's it gonna

06:23 ? It's like getting your free fries your meal. Alright? You didn't

06:27 it. You paid for all this and all of a sudden. Oh

06:30 the way, here's some free That's what extra credits about for.

06:34 that's why you don't panic. All now, if you're calculating everything,

06:37 your extra credit in there, you're not going to be in for

06:41 surprise. You already know what's going happen. I like the surprise.

06:45 right, so, I don't want spend a lot of time on

06:48 Uh That big box probably represents students already dropped the class, but haven't

06:51 so. Right. The blue If you're if you're in that that

06:56 right next to 50, you can mathematically it's possible to get up into

07:00 the passing ranges. And if you know d is a passing grade,

07:03 just not a good passing grade. . We don't like these anymore than

07:07 do. Alright. Um That next over that 40-44, that's gonna be

07:14 of that edge area, but all gotta do is just figure out.

07:16 told you you have the formula, know how to do the math?

07:19 figure out do I want to be here in this passing if I

07:23 can I get there? If I get there? What am I going

07:27 do to make that happen? The is not cheating of course. But

07:31 know what changes driving me because if keep doing what you're doing, you're

07:34 keep getting those grades. So stop , stop doing what you're doing,

07:37 how you study and you're gonna start material, which is what grades

07:42 Do I know it? I know my grade is going to reflect what

07:46 know that makes sense. Yeah, like great For for for after the

07:55 exam. But remember it's it's just , you know this is you're gonna

08:00 what, six more homework assignments times 12 more homework assignment And then you're

08:05 to have a test. So 25%% your grades still out there. So

08:09 number is going to change, it's to change now. Which way is

08:12 going to change all the, all kids who are sitting there going,

08:18 want to break the curve. We're drive it this way. People are

08:21 , I don't know what to We're going to push it that

08:24 All right. And so it just on the pushed in the pool and

08:28 I've seen historically and that's what I to base everything on right historically.

08:32 will end up about an 87 That end up around 72. That will

08:37 up around 55, will it? I guarantee that. And I wouldn't

08:43 wouldn't bet on it. Right. I can estimate it. That's my

08:48 . All right. You guys ready learn a little bit of Mp or

08:57 you want to talk about this some ap? Yeah, sure. This

09:02 depressing. Who cares. Stop looking it. Right. Because that's what

09:08 guys want to do. You want focus on this? Let me I've

09:11 one more question. How important is homework assignment for your grade? You

09:16 to tell me very important the grade not doing the assignment the grade.

09:23 . What percentage of your grade is , Huh? 10% for the

09:29 10% for the little achieved thing. ? So, let's just say the

09:32 thing is 20%. So, one is 1/20 of your grade. And

09:37 let's say you have 30 questions and of your homework assignments. How important

09:41 missing one question one. So, . So, that would be 1/30

09:49 1/20 or 1 600 of your Have you guys sweat every question.

10:00 it. Put things in perspective. right. Take that step back.

10:06 at the big picture. Right. what I said, over here.

10:11 picture. Not small pictures. Big . All right enough about that.

10:20 want you all to achieve. I to be able to be the person

10:22 up from the table and see you over me while I'm lying there with

10:25 chest open. Hopefully I won't open eyes during that period of time,

10:29 when I'm going into that room, love you all to be there.

10:32 only if you know what you're it's the same thing, Right?

10:37 mean, do you want your nurses know what you don't want your nurses

10:40 know? Yeah, you're like, , you're right. Do you want

10:43 doctor's note or do you want them be the ones that skipped the kidney

10:46 ? You have kids, You have go in for the kidney stuff and

10:48 like, no, no. So of the part of the discipline here

10:53 stuff is because of who you're supposed be and what we're gonna do is

10:57 gonna look at, we're moving from central nervous system and we're moving into

11:02 peripheral nervous system. We spend quite bit of time dealing with the special

11:07 . Alright, well, not just senses, but we'll be looking at

11:10 general census, but special censuses. lot of this, this unit,

11:15 think that's really the kind of the stuff like I heard something on the

11:19 this morning when I was coming in this, I'm not going to say

11:22 blew my mind, but you 7:00 AM. It's kind of

11:26 Do you realize you've never seen your face? You've looked in a

11:32 So you've seen a reflection and you've pictures which is a facsimile but you

11:37 never, ever, ever seen your face. Is that weird? That's

11:44 think that's weird. I can't you look and see your face. Can't

11:50 that. Right. Right. And special census of course are responsible.

11:55 of your special senses is to be to see. Alright, so what

11:59 gonna do is we're going to look senses. All right. So what

12:03 sensations, what is what is our receptors? So simply put a sensation

12:08 a conscious awareness of incoming sensory data . Alright. You cannot experience something

12:19 that sensory input doesn't read the cerebral . Alright, so right now,

12:23 body is being bombarded with a whole of sensory information and your your

12:30 your thalamus and all the structures within brain I should say are sitting there

12:35 what's important and what isn't important. right. And so the concept of

12:41 a sensation or experiencing sensation is only once you reach that cortex.

12:48 So once the information is processed and , hey, this is kind of

12:52 to know, a receptor is simply structure that responds to a particular

13:01 In other words, it's they're detecting the things that are going on around

13:06 the body and inside the body? right, And it's what's gonna send

13:09 information up to the central nervous system say, hey, do you think

13:12 is important enough for you to be of it? All right. And

13:16 these receptors are gonna range in And this is where it kinda gets

13:19 when you're dealing with receptors because you've to kind of know what level you're

13:23 at or receptor we've already learned about be a molecule, right? Can

13:27 on can be that individual molecule and call that a receptor And that's

13:31 That is a receptor. But when dealing with the general receptors or sensory

13:35 , we may not be dealing with a molecule. We might be dealing

13:38 a cell. Alright. And we the cella receptor cell or we might

13:43 dealing with an organ. The for example, is an organ and

13:50 a receptor, right? It's a receptor And it's made up of a

13:54 of different cells that are receptor cells on those receptor cells are very specific

13:59 molecules that allow the receptor cells to its job. So, the term

14:04 is going to be dependent upon what you're looking at. All right.

14:08 you just have to kind of understand . So, in terms of

14:12 you can see it kind of falls any of those three categories. So

14:15 stimuli then is any change in any information that your body is receiving.

14:20 right now we can look around the and we can say the room is

14:22 . How do we know the room light because we understand like over there

14:26 example, that we can see a bit of darkness and so we can

14:29 these relatives changes that we become aware . And that's that sensory perception or

14:35 sensation that we become aware of. , when I say sensation, I'm

14:39 talking about SmR for those of you are all into the HSM artist stuff

14:44 Tiktok, you know? Yeah, get it. All right. What

14:48 talking about is a sensation is just awareness of your environmental surroundings as a

14:53 of all that stimuli that you're Okay. Yeah. So with that

15:00 mind, what do receptors do? different types of receptors, right.

15:06 eyes are light receptors. Our noses chemical receptors, Right? We touch

15:13 . But can your brain smell, it detect voters? So, if

15:19 poured perfume on your brain, would be able to detect that?

15:23 All right. How about if I light on your brain was able to

15:26 drill a hole in your head? put that flashlight right on your

15:29 Would your brain be able to check ? Now? What language does the

15:33 use in order to communicate? electricity. So action potentials and then

15:40 chemicals. Right, small ion Right. So, what a trans

15:45 a receptor is is a transducer. changes the language of that stimulus into

15:55 language of the brain, which is action potential. Alright, so,

15:58 really kind of the goal here is gonna be converting that original energy energy

16:04 into a signal that the brain can understand. So when light hits your

16:09 , it's converting that into a greater , which is then converted into an

16:13 potential, which is then those action then travel up to the thalamus and

16:18 ultimately into the visual cortex and you are perceiving light from this particular

16:26 . Everybody says, okay, that's . So, all receptors as transducers

16:33 features one, they establish and maintain resting membrane potential. So, every

16:39 already has a membrane potential. And you do is you're gonna have channels

16:44 are responding to that specific modality, is the fancy word for saying the

16:49 type of stimulus to allow them to open those channels to then allow those

16:55 to flow in or out to create action potential. So, if you

17:00 wondering why we spend so much time about those stupid action potentials is because

17:05 keep coming up over and over and again. All right, So,

17:10 you smell flowers, right, what doing is you're not sending chemicals up

17:16 your brain, You're sending action right? You shine a light up

17:20 nose, you're not smelling flowers and not smelling light, light has no

17:25 because you don't have a receptor in nose to detect light simple enough.

17:34 . So, what we do is break down the senses into what we

17:37 the general senses, or the special . Special senses are easy in the

17:43 of knowing which ones they are. . Gus station. That's a fancy

17:46 for taste. Alright. Olfaction, word for good smell. Audition something

17:54 do before performance. No, it's Hearing, right? Vision.

18:00 the easy one. That's what you . And then equilibrium, which we

18:04 say balance, but it's it's really to do with equilibrium. Being able

18:09 know the position of your head in . All right. The other

18:14 The general sense is really kind of to uh the type of reception that

18:21 gonna feel by touch or basically the of our muscles or our bones.

18:29 ? So we break it down into different classes. We call them somatic

18:32 visceral. Remember what we said when talk about somatic, we're talking about

18:35 , we're talking about muscles. Generally when you talk about visceral, you're

18:38 about your guts. Alright. whenever you see those two terms,

18:41 can kind of break it down into two areas. All right.

18:44 we're talking about somatic. We're talking tactile sensations in the skin, Things

18:49 I touch and things that touch All right. When we're talking about

18:54 muscles and joints. We're just asking question, how much is the muscle

18:57 , stretched, stretched, It's gonna a long morning. Alright. How

19:02 the muscles stretch? Are they Those are the questions that the somatic

19:06 receptors are going to be asking. , so what I can do

19:10 I know I can do this because have somatic sensory receptors knowing the degree

19:15 stretch and my position of my arm the context of its movement. All

19:22 , we're talking about visceral again, looking at inside the viscera, the

19:27 of the body and we're gonna be different questions. We're not gonna be

19:30 questions whether or not food is touching inside of my digestive system. We

19:35 questions about temperature, the chemicals that there. We may have questions about

19:41 , right? If you eating so food that you're like, oh I'm

19:45 . Yeah, that's a stretch receptor you stop putting food in you,

19:51 ? And we have pain receptors. receptors are there to tell you when

19:55 are going wrong. Alright, so have their own types of receptors.

20:01 to tell you what's going on inside internal environment. The somatic primarily deals

20:07 the external environment what's touching me But can deal with the position of my

20:15 . Now, this is where Get all kind of wonky and they

20:18 say all right, well, I classify receptor in a multitude of different

20:22 . And one way that I can them? and I can just ask

20:25 question is where is the stimulus coming ? If the stimulus is coming from

20:29 outside then the type of receptor that going to use to detect that is

20:33 an Xterra or Xterra aceptar. And so that's kind of pretty

20:38 It's just telling you the direction if information coming from the inside of the

20:42 and use an entire receptor. so we're talking about on the external

20:49 so near the body surfaces. So receptors, these might also be things

20:53 mucous membranes. Right? So I have a receptor in my digestive system

20:58 outward. And what I'm doing is detecting things in the digestive track which

21:03 external to your body And A&P. . When I teach it when I'm

21:09 the digestive system. The first thing say is you are what you

21:11 You are a donut Are you a from a donut? C got a

21:17 on one side. I got a on the other side. I'm not

21:21 to show you that one. All . But it's a hole. It's

21:25 tunnel that goes all the way through . And so everything between that tube

21:30 the outside of my body is my . Right? That tube is literally

21:36 the outside because it's continuous with the of your body? Alright. So

21:43 saying in our mucous membranes, we those and those structures are lined by

21:49 mucous membranes and tara receptor deals. there's also that somatic that we talked

21:55 the ones that deal with the muscles the bones. All right. And

22:00 you need to think internal origins within donut part of my body. Not

22:06 whole part, not the outside part in that donating part. So Xterra

22:12 entero, another type of receptor that do. When we look at a

22:17 we might say we don't care about or interior. Oh we don't care

22:21 it's outside or inside. I want know what's it detecting? What's its

22:26 . Alright. And that's all modality just it's a fancy word for

22:29 What does it detect? What's the ? So these are examples of some

22:34 specific types of modalities. We have receptors, thermo receptors just detect changes

22:40 temperature. Alright. We have chemo , we've talked about these. They

22:46 chemicals Alright, so those chemicals can in the air, they can be

22:50 fluid. Right? So when we about for example um gas station we're

22:57 chemicals in liquid in you know in saliva and they're touching receptors in our

23:04 our tongue and in our throat. would be chemo receptors All right.

23:10 you can also have chemo receptors that in terror receptors that are detecting the

23:14 of solute that you have in your . All right. So it's not

23:18 on the surface this is just modality. What am I detecting?

23:22 have mechanical receptors. These are receptors that detect touch or pressure or

23:28 . They're looking at mechanical manipulation of cell in which they're located. There's

23:33 specialized ones you've heard of barrow receptors . Alright. Maybe not in this

23:38 but you've heard of them a barrel to text pressure. All right.

23:44 you heard of a barometer? that's to measure the atmospheric pressure.

23:49 the same thing. That's what a receptor does. Alright, looks for

23:54 osmo receptors. They're looking for solute Now it's a type of McCann a

24:01 but it's also a type of chemo . So, that's kind of one

24:04 those weird ones. We have appropriate . Alright, appropriate receptors are looking

24:09 the position of body space. So manipulating our arms or spinning around or

24:14 or whatnot. What we are doing we're looking at what is our

24:18 What where's my head's supposed to And where is it relative to where

24:21 supposed to be? Where's my arm's to be? Where is it

24:25 So that's the type of Macau Looking at the degree of stretch and

24:30 we have this weird one here called nazi scepter? No c comes from

24:33 word noxious. All right. And what it's looking for is painful stimuli

24:38 so, pain can come in a of different ways. And I'm not

24:41 about heartbreak. I'm talking about physical can come from chemicals can come from

24:46 or mechanical damage. All right. can be stabbed with a hot

24:51 covered in poison. How's that? get all three of them at the

24:56 time. Alright. But that's no another way to classify them as you

25:08 by structure. So, where are located? What's their modality where they

25:13 or what do they have? And , this is just trying to show

25:16 the different types. There's really two classes of of structures are are they

25:22 or the un encapsulated? And what doing when we're encapsulating, we're taking

25:26 free end. So, when we of a nerve fiber, this is

25:29 of what we think about. We of this open ended thing. It's

25:32 a free nerve ending. And that's an un encapsulated basic nerve.

25:38 , basically, you know, that has that free end. And so

25:41 detects wherever those little ends are But what we can do is you

25:46 take and wrap those endings in connective and in doing so, what you've

25:53 is you've increased the area from which can detect things. All right.

26:02 , here would be un encapsulated. would be an example of encapsulated.

26:09 other type where we can kind of at structure is what we're comparing

26:14 Alright here, we have a cell is a sensory cell. In other

26:19 , it's a receptor cell and it's associated with the neuron that will send

26:24 this detects. So, this will this detects something, it produces a

26:29 potential that then releases a neurotransmitter that the peripheral neuron. All right.

26:35 , that's one that is a sensory that's not part of the neuron.

26:40 here we have a neuron that has peripheral processes where the sensory receptors are

26:48 . And so this is the other . So, the neuron itself is

26:50 sensory cell. And so that's another you can classify them is between those

26:55 states. All right. But un versus caps elated or associated with the

27:04 cell or the neuron is the sensory all the different ways that you can

27:08 at. And what we're trying to with all of this is just trying

27:11 lay the groundwork. So, as start looking at these different structures,

27:15 can go, oh, I can here now this is one strategy.

27:18 is using encapsulated or over here it's encapsulated over here, choosing this over

27:22 , choosing that the third type, sorry, 4th, I guess is

27:31 one of these receptors respond to a . They could be tonic in nature

27:35 they can be physical in nature. right now, what tonic means.

27:41 trying to make sure I get Right, because I can screw this

27:43 really, really easily tonic is simply where the receptor stays constant once changes

27:55 place. All right? So, would be an example of tonic over

28:00 , this is gonna be the example physic. All right. Now,

28:04 way I've tried to explain this to classes as I want you to think

28:09 the close touch, touching your skin now. Can you feel it?

28:13 you feel your skin touching your touching you? When I told

28:17 right? When you when you started about it, when I said,

28:20 , start, you know, can think about it all of a

28:22 You're like, yeah, I can my clothes but before that moment you

28:24 no idea your clothes were touching your , right? And there's a reason

28:28 that, right? When you got this morning, you put on the

28:31 and you felt your clothes hit your , Your body said, hey,

28:35 on the skin, everything's good to . And your brain said, Jets

28:37 enough. Fine, we can keep moving and you kind of keep

28:41 right? It's only when changes hers it becomes really, really important.

28:46 for example? It's stupid. You're along and the bush grabs your clothes

28:50 tears off your shirt, right? becomes an important part of your life

28:54 that moment, doesn't it? It's like this is not good,

28:58 ? And so what we're dealing with is kind of how information is being

29:02 to the brain. When you're dealing tonic receptors, tonic receptors are sending

29:09 information about the state of self to brain, right? Whereas when you're

29:16 with phase sick, what they do they tell you when change occurs,

29:21 that kind of makes sense? So idea is here, you can see

29:25 all right. And what we're looking the top. So down here at

29:27 bottom, so you can think of as binary. This will be

29:30 This is on. So there's your . Right? So down here at

29:35 level, that's off up here at level, that's not. So what

29:38 is saying is some changes occurred. the receptors now being stimulated the stimulus

29:43 there? Alright, And then what says is only at the time when

29:47 turns on, am I going to a signal? So I create a

29:51 of action potentials. And then after nothing happens. It has rapidly adapted

29:56 in essence no signals being set In other words, need to send

30:00 signal. What changes occurred? I on the shirt, shirt is still

30:04 , shirt is still on, shirt still on, shirt is still

30:06 So you can imagine when the shirt off, right, when there's no

30:10 touching your skin, what do you ? What happened right there? It

30:14 be another action potential. Right? when the receptor potential changes and you

30:18 a series of action potentials over this is not what's happening in your

30:23 right now. Alright again here's off then this is all on and then

30:28 back and this is off. And what it's saying is I feel this

30:32 touching my skin and this would be still touching, it's still touching,

30:36 still touching, it's still touching, still touching. You can see all

30:38 a sudden how your brain was like is not really all that important.

30:42 quit bugging me. Right? So a series of action potential that's just

30:47 sending signals over and over again. where does this become important? What

30:51 important for example in posture? Write muscles need to know the degree of

30:57 , your brain needs to know how your muscles contract to make adjustments.

31:01 while you're sitting here in an upright , I really usually at this point

31:05 usually tell set sit up straight and of you are going to just do

31:09 because you're used to being told to that right? But you sit up

31:12 but you have muscles that are basically contracting all the time, right?

31:18 not in a relaxed state there once are contracting some relaxing, some are

31:21 contracting so now they're gonna under contract what you're doing is you're constantly shifting

31:26 degree of contraction of these muscles that your posture. So an example of

31:33 controls that would be tonic receptors looking the degree of stretch in those muscles

31:40 that your brain knows what to do ensure that you sit in the upright

31:46 , that kind of makes sense. they don't adapt all that quickly.

31:51 constantly sending signals. And so when has occurred and say there's a contraction

31:56 on, that signal is going to maintained until for example the contraction stops

32:03 that's why you stop sending signals at point. Now you can ask the

32:09 , why do I have more here there? Because that's more realistic.

32:13 they are slowly adapting so they slow the rate at which you're producing their

32:17 potentials. But let's think in terms simple absolutes and the phase sick you

32:23 on off in the tonic you have and sustained and then off you turn

32:36 so we can look at a receptor ask one of those questions, What

32:39 of receptor is it? Where is located? How does it respond?

32:44 does it detect? A term? will see often when talking about a

32:51 is what its receptive field is. field simply is the area over which

32:58 that particular receptor is able to detect stimulus. All right, this is

33:04 great example to understand. It's not tactile. Alright, we have receptive

33:09 for ghost station, we have receptive for olfaction. We have receptive fields

33:14 auditions. Right. In other words single receptor using audition can detect the

33:19 note and only a high note. ? If it's a low note,

33:24 particular receptor doesn't detect it. so there are receptive fields for all

33:29 of things. But tactile receptive fields really easy to kind of visualize because

33:34 can kind of perceived distance pretty Right? And that's what this is

33:37 to show. You says, the receptive field for this particular receptors

33:43 here for this particular receptor. It's and for this it's that. What

33:49 it represent? It basically says where extend my dendrites, that is the

33:54 over which I'm able to detect Right? And so there are some

34:00 with regard to detection within a receptive . Alright, so if a receptive

34:06 is large, right then we have when it's when it's large, basically

34:14 locality of detection becomes less understood. other words, it's it's harder to

34:21 exactly where the stimulus is occurring. . And the example they're using here

34:25 something that you probably did maybe when probably the third or fourth grade in

34:29 science class, if not, this a really easy thing to do.

34:33 you do is you get your you say, hey friend, I'm

34:35 play with you for a second here they're gonna look at your little cross

34:39 . See you guys are looking at like, am I gonna come over

34:41 now and what you do is you a stylist? Or sometimes they wanna

34:44 our style has a little pokey right? And what you're gonna do

34:48 you're gonna grab your friend and you're get one like this and you're gonna

34:51 it over here and get another stylist stick it over here and then walk

34:55 stylists up the arm and to ask they can feel just one stylist.

35:02 ? Because obviously if I'm poking here poking their, you're going to be

35:04 to fill both those, right? . But as you walk, that

35:07 is up, what you're gonna find that there'll be some distance away.

35:11 just making up the distance. I know like that. And they're

35:13 well, I just feel one, don't want them watching it because they're

35:16 be like, you know, But you have them looking away, you

35:19 actually go, oh, I feel one. And you look, you're

35:22 to see the two styles styles are . Our different distance apart. What

35:25 means is you have a large receptive , right? You have large receptive

35:30 , an area where localization of information stimuli is not particularly important. You

35:36 do it on the back of your is another one that's really, really

35:38 . You're gonna see the distances are in inches. But when you're talking

35:43 your hands, for example, and what this is trying to show

35:47 you're going to have very, very receptive fields? because now it becomes

35:52 to localized information if you're trying to something. Is it important to know

35:57 it is? Do you think to able to apply the pressure?

36:01 And so that receptive field is going be much much smaller. So the

36:06 rule is the more receptive you what you're going to be dealing with

36:10 very, very small receptive fields. gonna give you another example. That's

36:14 gonna make sense to you now. when we talk about the eye,

36:16 will all right, when you take eye and you imagine the back of

36:21 eye is covered with a bunch of like this. If you spread it

36:24 , what you're gonna see is that receptors on the periphery, on the

36:28 are more diffused. In other there's fewer receptors. They have much

36:32 receptive fields. All right. But focal point, the bull's eye of

36:38 eye where the light comes in. have concentrated receptors, right? And

36:44 they're very your vision becomes very, acute. And to test this,

36:48 is a real easy thing, I'm say it again. You don't have

36:50 do it right now is take a at a piece of paper and focus

36:53 the word right there in the middle don't let your eyes wander but just

36:58 of take in the rest of the and notice like the words around the

37:02 that you're looking at are kind of . You can see that they're there

37:07 they're not clear, right? It's you're dealing with a broad receptive field

37:12 there's not creating that type of acuity you would see right? It's

37:18 so you get this larger or more response, whereas when you're looking at

37:24 right smack in the middle, you all these uh receptive fields are very

37:29 small and densely packed. So everything really really acute sharp. All

37:36 like four K. It's actually better 4K. But so receptive fields are

37:42 the area where stimulus is being size determines the the degree of receptors

37:52 are located within that. So what gonna do is we're gonna switch gears

37:57 we're gonna deal with tactile receptors for little bit. This is stuff that

38:00 already seen if you recall way back the beginning of the semester, you

38:04 ? Back when you were younger, were younger, right? Yes,

38:11 definition we're talking about the skin, ? And we said there's receptors located

38:16 skin. You remember that? I we're gonna say we're gonna come back

38:19 these and you're like whatever I'll memorize . Yeah, so now we're back

38:23 them. Alright, so tactile receptors the most numerous type of receptor located

38:27 the body. Alright there, mechanic . So we now know what they're

38:34 be detecting tactile stimulation that's going to that particular receptor. Typically they're located

38:40 the uh the dermis. But they also be located in the cutaneous

38:45 Alright, so cutaneous refers to the . All right. They can be

38:49 in nature or they can be Their job is to detect three different

38:55 . Touch pressure and vibration. All now please say vibration. I want

39:00 to think in terms of like when trying to grip something and you roll

39:03 fingers across the table like so you're feel vibration, you can feel your

39:08 slipping and that's a function of the as you grip and release as you

39:15 by. And that's when we talked vibration, that's really kind of what

39:18 talking about. Not necessarily talking about . Alright, Although that is a

39:23 of vibration. Right? So touch information about all sorts of things,

39:29 , texture, size, shape, . Right? Again, you can

39:34 on a blindfold, have somebody hand stuff, see if you can identify

39:39 . Alright. Tennis ball feels different a baseball. It's roughly the same

39:44 . Baseball feels like a softball, a softball is bigger and a little

39:47 softer. You'll be able to detect basketball feels very very different than a

39:54 does. Right? I'm just using as examples. Snowball is very different

39:59 all those and a marble is But they're all balls right? So

40:02 all be able to recognize spherical And I hand you a football and

40:06 was like wait, what's this? , still ball. But you can

40:12 the shape is different. It feels of like a basketball. But it's

40:15 blown pressure is basically just deformation of deeper tissues. All right. So

40:23 going to first start here with the encapsulated ones. They're the easy

40:27 Alright. There's three different types. . The dendritic ends are just like

40:32 said, they have free ends. they detect a very, very small

40:37 . Alright. The receptive fields are extended to the point where that little

40:43 dendritic end is located. So three of free nerve endings. We have

40:48 root hair plexus and the tactile These are found all within the epithelium

40:52 well as some of the connective Many of these are annihilated. What

40:55 means is that the signals are very slow. We combine the Frene

41:00 and the root hair plexus because they're the same thing. It's just where

41:04 located. Alright, so with regard the free nerve ending, you can

41:08 the little cartoon this yellow stuff right , these yellow branches. Those are

41:13 free nerve endings and each of these a different fiber. You can see

41:17 here that one of those free ends wrapped itself around the root hair.

41:23 ? And so we call it a hair plexus at that point. But

41:26 still a free nerve ending. So I tug on the hair, I'm

41:29 to detect that pull on that hair ? That now these are very,

41:38 uncomplicated. They're very simple. I that's a correct term. So the

41:43 complex of all the receptors very slow uh to rapidly adapting. So there

41:49 those touch receptors that we described when feel something touching you, it's like

41:53 something's touching you and then it stops a signal and then I'll tell

41:57 hey, something's not touching you any . All right. They use different

42:02 of fibers to the cns. The is alpha deltas and sees. We'll

42:06 to those in just a minute. basically that just refers to the degree

42:09 speed. All right. And so you find them very very very close

42:15 the surface. So they'll be in granule awesome. And they can be

42:21 model. And when polly model, remember modality is they detect a specific

42:27 of stimulus. So poly means they lots of different types of stimulus.

42:32 it can be touch and pressure like just touched as well as stretch.

42:36 it also deals with temperature also deals cell damage. They can serve as

42:41 see sculptors. So free nerve endings root hair plexus is plexus plexi.

42:48 can do a lot of different types detection. The other un encapsulated,

42:55 in the skin is the merkel or cell. So here remember there's our

43:02 cell here is the neuron So it's separate structure right? The receptors are

43:09 of different cell and you're sending signals that neuron. Alright. These are

43:15 located. The Merkel cell is located the stratum based ali they're tonic in

43:21 and what they're doing is they allow to distinguish between texture and shape.

43:27 right. So, that's the extent the un encapsulated free nerve ending.

43:36 kind of your baseline, wrap it the hair. That's now a root

43:40 plexus. And then here's our third . The unique one. Merkel disk

43:44 the tactile disk. You have Merkel located in thessaly with the neuron associated

43:51 it. To text, texture and the encapsulated. These are the four

43:57 that you guys memorized back when we this in the skin. Four different

44:02 . All mechanic receptors wrapped in connective and can also have glial cells associated

44:09 them or wrapped within the connective Alongside those dendritic endings. They're named

44:15 the people that discovered them. New are using different names. But we're

44:19 to stick with these for right All right. One of these is

44:24 Weird one. I'm just gonna go to the weird one. I'm

44:29 Um It's this house is Alright and It's the weird one is because this

44:35 the one that's found in mucus Okay. So when you see Kraus

44:41 you can just presume. Alright. cavity, nasal cavity. Ah vagina

44:48 , those are the locations where this found. All right. Um They

44:53 deal with light pressure and temperature. , so, this is kind of

44:57 weird one of the But because it's only one that we have associate with

45:02 mucus membranes. Now, I'm just show right now, because they all

45:06 this, all the cartoons are just be kind of like this. But

45:09 can see here's the capsule. So can see those are those nerve

45:14 And what's happened is we've wrapped this in connective tissue. Alright,

45:20 Crouse's the mucus membranes, light pressure temperature going back there. It is

45:29 listeners. All right. So, rest of these are gonna be located

45:34 in uh your regular skin. We're gonna see ones in hairless skin

45:40 . But anyway, here, what done is we take the dendrites.

45:43 start wrapping them and weaving them over other, like so. Okay.

45:46 so, that's kind of that that's that is supposed to be represented.

45:49 then so, what we end up our layers or pancakes, la

45:54 All right. So, you can think I've got connective tissue and I

45:57 my fiber and then more connective wrapped the fiber around it. And

46:01 kind of build on top of itself a series of pancakes and wrap that

46:05 in connective tissue? Now, what done here by doing so, he

46:09 like, well, how does this surface area? Well, if I

46:12 over here, that's going to create on this side. It basically pushes

46:19 one side. It pushes on the side, wherever the pressure comes

46:22 It will have an effect. Instead just stimulating that little tiny tip

46:28 So now I can detect those pressures those changes in touch from almost any

46:37 . All right. So, these going to be found in the papillary

46:40 layer. So remember these were the , right? And they kind of

46:45 up and down like. So, that's where my sister's core puzzle is

46:49 phase IQ All right. They're not . So quick adapting and return back

46:56 that state. Waiting for change. detect light touch and vibrations in

47:02 This is what helps you identify things grip them. Also find them in

47:09 lips. Okay, so things that like to touch. Alright,

47:18 these are much much deeper. I'm to go back to slides just so

47:21 can see where so Ruffini as you see is deep inside the dermal

47:26 right? They're trying to show you down here the same as uh Pacini

47:30 . But remember this is mucus Alright, so rude, Finis.

47:36 here you can see we have this structure on which it's basically collagen on

47:42 the democrats have been wrapped. And what we do is we encapsulate that

47:46 thing. So, if I the , right? I pulled what that's

47:53 do is it's gonna stretch that fiber and then I can detect the stretch

47:58 the fiber. So that's the nature these. Alright, so these around

48:03 fingernails and this helps you to identify for example. So when you grip

48:08 you're kind of like I can recognize holding onto it. So it's the

48:13 pressure. It's tonic in nature so don't exhibit adaptation. So when you

48:18 you stimulate one, you continue to it until the pressure is removed from

48:27 . Trying to see if there's anything about that. So, yet tonic

48:30 the key thing there. We've already Crouse's and then we get to the

48:35 in And so here's the nerve And you see it's just multiple layers

48:39 connective tissue wrapped over and over and again. So a series of concentric

48:44 of connective tissue that again, increases detection area for roof finis. And

48:50 are gonna be located deep inside the . Alright. Typically found in hairless

48:56 . Where's your hairless skin? Normal soles of your hands. Okay.

49:03 rapidly adapting. So because they're deep really easy to remember. Press

49:09 High frequency vibrations. Low frequency vibrations very, very slow. Like this

49:15 wavelength high frequency would be like And so they're going to detect that

49:20 well. So palms soles also. are the breasts and external genitalia as

49:27 . All right. Deep, deep inside the dermal layers.

49:33 there's a four. All right, have one that's tonic the rest or

49:38 . We have one that's in the membranes, rest or not. We've

49:41 one that's in the hairless skin. rest or not. So, you

49:45 kind of look for those individual features help highlight what's different or unique about

49:57 . Thermal receptors are real simple. think temperature. The rest of this

50:01 is just interesting. So, I it up there. Alright, so

50:05 are six times more colder. We'll the question. I'm not gonna ask

50:09 . So, your body is looking , what is it looking for?

50:11 ? Is it looking for cold, ? What's the likelihood that you're gonna

50:19 across something that's so hot that it's be damaging to you? Let's see

50:23 most organisms. Can most organisms create ? No. Are you gonna walk

50:29 to a volcano if you you can you're going up to something hot like

50:32 hot springs or a volcano. You feel the heat. You don't need

50:35 lot of things to tell you. hot right now. Let's just think

50:39 everywhere except for Houston. Houston is . Right? So like right

50:44 I have friends who are moving up Michigan and we're just kind of laughing

50:48 right now a day in Michigan, this is springtime for us, it's

50:51 80° in Michigan right now, it's about 50 or 40° In June.

50:59 will wake up to 30° weather And will get up to about 60° in

51:05 . And so you're gonna like I wish. Right, that sounds

51:08 I'm a little bit, a little . Okay. Yeah. So most

51:12 , most of the world, most everything is cold and so understand things

51:17 are cold is probably more important for bodies in terms of survival. And

51:21 that's what these receptors do is primarily for cold with some things that deal

51:27 heat. All right now, at certain point you don't need it.

51:31 just once it's cold, it's really cold. So snow is

51:35 You don't know that. It's like you know, it's just cold.

51:41 these are transient receptors. They respond different temperatures. They belong to a

51:47 called the transient receptor potential cat island or terp channels. You do not

51:51 to know that. I'm not gonna you what's the terp channel.

51:54 What's interesting about them? So their on channels they use primarily calcium.

51:58 is what's interesting is they also respond chemicals and you've experienced this right?

52:03 guys like spicy food? Oh give me the spicy food.

52:08 Ghost peppers. No, I'm the one. Alright, We Got

52:14 You're not working party? Get a old thing of chips and just

52:19 All right. What is the primary that goes into peppers? That makes

52:26 spicy. There it is right capsaicin binds both those two receptors right

52:33 . You perceive hot. You don't get hot. All right. Cap

52:39 isn't hot. It's a perception of . Right? Remember what we

52:44 sensation perception. It gets up here it says by the way, um

52:47 receptor has been activated and you're gonna soon, sort of That's kind of

52:54 that is. All right. So text, It also detects heat above

53:00 C You want to do the You can figure that out is it's

53:04 hot And then above 52. So you eat something with lots of cap

53:09 in your body is basically saying I'm ridiculously hot temperatures. My mouth is

53:17 . Alright, how about mental. guys like menthol not necessarily talking about

53:21 , just talking about like peppermint Yeah. Where we have that,

53:25 have mint down there, there's camper there. You know, if you

53:29 garlic, they detect these receptors detect those things and this is kind of

53:35 us those unique sensations in our It's like you get that cool sensation

53:41 you're breathing in after a york. patty, I don't know. But

53:45 , that's mental. So thermal receptors temperatures but also detect some chemicals.

53:55 sir receptors the last little bit we're to talk about today? I don't

53:59 know what time how much time we've doing it, So I don't know

54:03 long this is gonna go, I this could be like three slides,

54:05 could be seven, it could be , I don't know. Alright knows

54:08 is where we're going to stop we're going to stop with pain.

54:12 , so no c receptors detect they adapt very close to their tonic

54:18 , right? They're concentrated areas more to injury, which areas are most

54:23 to injury, injury for you Good, Alright. Anyone here ever

54:30 your toe in the middle of the while walking to the bathroom, if

54:33 are shaking there's like no. have stepped on a lego Yeah,

54:41 guess where those receptors are located, is where they are. We live

54:47 a really safe society. I'm just you know we live in like a

54:52 safe society. I don't know what was. I was clicking on Youtube

54:54 I saw this video of like making in Pakistan, right? Like cooking

55:00 , you know? And so the thing you see with these guys,

55:04 just pointing out, you know how the world is, they're working with

55:08 sharp metal and they're all wearing right? And they're carrying the sharp

55:14 to the smelter, the furnace, is on the ground and they're just

55:18 there throwing it and then you look they take the hot metal out of

55:22 furnace and one guy is not even sandals, I'm just sitting there

55:27 oh sure, you know, we OSHA, OSHA would be like this

55:29 shutting down, You know, this why you can get a $10 pot

55:32 because they don't have all these rules regulations. But you can imagine,

55:36 sitting there thinking like you're probably thinking I would step on a piece of

55:38 and that'll be the end of it there. These guys are probably jamming

55:42 feet into it and all sorts of and I have all these receptors here

55:46 are probably dead. So they respond all sorts of things. No

55:54 cellular damage. Alright, Alright. all learned, what is pain?

56:01 is it looking at the guys who at what is pain? It's weakness

56:05 your body, right? No, basic. Your body telling you stop

56:09 that because you're killing yourself. That's what it is right now, we

56:14 to say it's what you can sleep the road, but that's what it

56:16 . So, we're looking for What are the things that are gonna

56:18 us? All right, when we killing off ourselves, when you damage

56:20 , you're gonna kill yourself, stop what you're doing? Noxious chemicals.

56:25 . Don't put that pepper in your . You're killing yourself, right?

56:29 signals. Alright, So there's other that are basically telling you damage has

56:34 in this area. So I'm just let you know that there's a wound

56:38 that you need to avoid stimulating. that's what all these little tiny chemicals

56:42 not memorize these. Please, I not going to ask you because this

56:47 not even a complete list. But I do want to point

56:50 have you have you seen histamine? know you've heard of histamine? Are

56:54 guys suffering from histamine right now? ? Because every oak tree has decided

56:59 , you know, seek out it's mate, which probably was like 40

57:03 away from it. You know You're getting your cards like yellow,

57:10 ? Histamine. And basically your body sitting there going all right, protect

57:17 like, no, give me anti , prostaglandins. These are another signaling

57:24 , but you can see there's just signaling molecules and they're basically there to

57:28 or to tell your your system about damage has occurred. So as I

57:36 , it's not pain leaving your I'd like to think it is because

57:40 I'd feel a lot better about You know, I've got a lot

57:43 weakness and it's all leaving my body now, but no more. It's

57:46 this for me it's a protective mechanism prevent tissue damage. Alright, So

57:53 as an example, I'll use myself um I have severe tendonitis right now

57:59 my elbow, not from playing tennis every time I lift weights, I'll

58:05 them up and twist my arms like and I'm straining that tendon. And

58:10 you work out all the time, know, like on a regular

58:14 you never have an opportunity to give rest. And so my tendon,

58:17 is in pain, keeps telling you keep doing this, you're gonna

58:20 damaging the tissue and it's never gonna itself. So every day I wake

58:25 and every day my elbow still and then every day I keep doing

58:28 same thing and then my wife asks , but I'm like, no,

58:31 gotta go do this or I'm gonna . You know, so fast pain

58:36 what you feel like when I you, you know, shipping is

58:40 , okay, get stabbed fast right short, sharp, localized,

58:45 , very quick, slow pain. the dull pain that you get um

58:51 it's like after you've been hit it just kind of stays around,

58:57 kind of diffuse, it's not easily . Example. I like to

59:00 if you, if you haven't ever hit by a baseball, like,

59:05 know, like you're trying to catch , you had your hand up

59:08 hit you in the face, whatever , you're smiling, like that's happened

59:11 you here, you happen anyone over that happened to you. Yeah,

59:17 everyone hit you with a stick on or accident doesn't matter which,

59:22 And immediately get that first pain, that fast pain, then you have

59:26 , that kind of, that after ? That throb throb throb throb slow

59:31 ? There you go. Alright, pain, sudden onset. I love

59:36 , but declines when the stimulus is . So when I stab you,

59:41 a cute, but when I take knife away, it's no longer a

59:45 right? The chronic pain is what . Alright, So depending on where

59:52 source is, chronic pain can be for uh you know, an incredibly

59:58 time. Visceral pain just refers to from the abdominal organ usually fairly poorly

60:05 . So kind of radio to anyone besides me had appendicitis. He did

60:10 it awesome. Yeah. Anyone else there appendicitis? Everyone wanted to claim

60:16 I see the smiles, it's yeah, Yeah. I had appendicitis

60:20 grade, I was at summer you know, we always say in

60:24 family, I was lucky that it at summer camp because my mom thought

60:27 was a hypochondriac and she was just , just walk it off, you

60:32 ? But it was like this horrid that existed from about here to I

60:36 know right about there, right? was all this side and just like

60:40 just just all the time and then touch you and you just want to

60:44 bloody murder visceral pain. It's actually they touch you right around here,

60:49 where does mine came with nausea and couple of other fun things, we're

60:54 going to call them unpleasant experiences. ever heard of referred pain?

61:02 when you're having a heart attack, do you grab, grab your

61:08 I mean you're young, you're not have heart attacks. Well we don't

61:11 vaccines. I've got a laugh out you guys. Finally good.

61:23 right. I grew up watching Sanford Son. You know every, every

61:28 Redd Foxx would grab his chest and Elizabeth, I'm coming home, I'm

61:31 home and he'd grab here. That's when you have a heart attack,

61:35 not where you feel it, feel here, right? Feeling the

61:39 And so if you favorite movie ever see the movie office space one person

61:46 you not in your head office Yeah, no. Yeah. Watch

61:52 annually to remind you what a horrible the world is and what you're getting

61:57 into. Just stay in college. scene, he's at a hypnotist and

62:04 hypnotist has a heart attack just after puts the main character under. So

62:09 so the main character is hypnotized for majority of the movie and it's just

62:13 kind of the running gag and he his work. And so the guy

62:18 , you know, you can't hypnotize to make him enjoy the time at

62:22 and he's just it's it's it's hilarious but he's having a heart attack and

62:26 he's putting him under, you can the guy, the guy who's acting

62:29 the hypnotist, he starts doing he starts pulls his arm up

62:33 he starts grabbing his arm the right , the right way because it's a

62:40 pain. And you can see here marked off referred pain is simply the

62:49 of visceral stimulus on the surface of skin, right? In other

62:54 you feel it going, wow, is where it hurts, but it's

62:58 referring to a different part and no really sure why this happens. It's

63:02 is a false sense of origin, it's believed because to be that as

63:09 are moving or as neurons are moving the arm or the leg or

63:12 that they join in with these visceral . And so the brain doesn't know

63:17 to separate which neuron is coming which location. Alright. It's one

63:22 those, those things where it's well, it's kind of from this

63:25 , so that that must be where from. Alright, so it's kind

63:28 this idea of being a shared track , why do we care about

63:32 Well, because it's useful for medical , right? So, for

63:37 when I had the appendicitis, when start poking around my belly right there

63:41 I'm screaming bloody murder, like, , you know what, that might

63:43 appendicitis? They're not going to oh, there must be something wrong

63:46 your liver, which also sits it's just a quick and easy way

63:50 do diagnosis. If you look at , I mean, you can kind

63:53 look at some of them just for and just kind of like,

63:56 you're not don't don't remember just what referred pain. It's basically pain that's

64:02 , That's perceived coming from an external or a surface location. All

64:11 So this is where things start turning little bit differently for us and become

64:15 little bit more. I'm not gonna difficult, but where we start diving

64:21 a little bit deeper. Alright, , with regard to pain pathways and

64:25 can be perceived as being difficult. is why I kind of warned

64:29 But you'll see a little bit later they're not you in understanding the order

64:35 the pain pathway. In all they're all gonna have first order second

64:38 and may have a third order It just refers to the the neuron

64:42 from where it locates and where it to. So with regard to the

64:45 order neuron. So, you can down here, right, we have

64:49 is about to touch attack and so purple structure right there. That's the

64:55 order neuron. Alright. And so it's sending the information from the stimulus

65:01 the central nervous system. Alright, notice where do we go? We

65:04 into the spinal cord? From the cord? What we're gonna do is

65:07 got a second order neuron that's going then project to the thalamus.

65:12 what do we say the thalamus It's the sorting center for the

65:17 Right. So the question is is right. What do we where does

65:20 information need to go? And it's to follow one of two tracks which

65:24 not going to even know today but come to in about three or four

65:28 the lateral or the anterior spinal thalamic . Now this is where I'm gonna

65:32 for a second and I'm gonna show something when you see lateral or

65:36 what does that tell you location? . So it's gonna refer to where

65:41 located on the spinal cord. So what the laterally interior does. And

65:45 the second is the name spinal Alright. And that's where everyone kind

65:49 goes. Like spinal tells you it's from the spinal cord and it's going

65:54 the Phil and mix it with the . So all the tracks are named

66:01 where they start and where they go . So now all you gotta do

66:04 just make sure you know what the mean. So spinal thalamic is telling

66:08 it's going from the the in this case it's the anterior lateral. So

66:12 would be anterior that would be That would be posterior. Alright.

66:18 this would be the lateral spinal thalamic up and there you go to the

66:22 . Now here the thalamus is going start integrating information. Right. It

66:27 says all right. What do we to do with this? Right.

66:31 some things that will project to the cortex and basically tells you what type

66:35 pain you're trying to to you Right? It's distinguishing different types of

66:41 . So is this like an itch is this like nausea or by being

66:45 ? What is it that I'm So that would be one thing that

66:48 does. Another. It's going to and try to determine what your response

66:53 to that pain. Right, motivational . All right. If I touch

67:00 hot stove, what's my motivation? your hand. If you're Chris Rock

67:05 front of 50 million people and just slapped, what is your response?

67:09 and pretend it didn't happen. That's what he did. Right?

67:14 mean he looked and he was just I don't know what to do.

67:18 know I'm in front of 50 million . Do I deck him? Did

67:21 deserve it? I don't know. didn't know. He just kind of

67:26 . So there's a motivational notice this in the process of the cortex or

67:31 information to determine response and then finally sort of So this will be a

67:36 sensory remember spanish sensory cortex is What I perceiving? All right.

67:41 I just got stabbed. I should my body away from what just stabbed

67:46 that hurts. Right. Oh, just got stabbed. You know that

67:52 would be kind of what's going on . So you see here the thalamus

67:55 directing information to the different parts of brain so that you understand what is

68:02 happening now, how that information moves . It's going to be one across

68:09 different types of fibers. Now again very easy to get lost over here

68:14 terms of absolute diameters and conduction rates stuff like that. Don't do

68:20 Alright. I want you to think relative to the other. These are

68:24 fastest. These are the slowest. a alphas. What makes them very

68:28 fast? They're thick. Right, we said diameter matters. The thicker

68:34 thicker the wire, the faster things . So the thicker than your

68:37 The faster the conduction rate there. eliminated when you're violated versus non

68:43 You're going to be much faster. thick fibers are faster than thin

68:47 They're both my eliminated. So these going to be faster than those.

68:52 thin fibers are so roughly the same terms of diameter but these are my

68:56 . These are not and what you look at in terms of what are

69:00 conducting. It's what sort of information being conducted here. The faster the

69:05 , probably the more important the the slower the wire probably not so

69:11 . Right? So sharply localized pain your foot against the door handle or

69:18 door jam in the middle of the . What are you gonna do?

69:22 your foot back and start screaming. sorts of horrible bad words?

69:28 This, for example, you lean your hands. So the other day

69:33 had some friends over, I had cooler of ice and I started pulling

69:36 ice. My hands started getting Was it like me kicking the door

69:43 ? No, it took a little of time before my hands started feeling

69:46 and then I started swearing and then dump the whole thing over and

69:49 screw it. All right. it's different speeds because different types of

69:54 are being are being moved forward. right, so sharp, localized pains

69:59 by dull pain followed by, you , kind of this generic stimuli go

70:07 to the baseball example, you get in the face of the baseball.

70:11 initial pop is going to be conducted the alphas and then that dull thud

70:18 from the damaged tissue is going to from the C fibers. Right?

70:24 throbbing pain that you have afterwards. had to throw this slide up here

70:31 because how do we modulate all this modulation refers to again. How do

70:37 manage or adapt to? All So, pain fibers can produce either

70:44 exciting target or an inhibitory response. right. In other words, you're

70:49 can be stimulating a something to to away or you can stimulate something to

70:56 react our response. So, you , you can change how responsiveness

71:02 All right now with regard to spinal fibers. These are gonna be modulated

71:10 inhibitory neurons coming down. So what means is as as the information is

71:14 up and moving into the spinal you're going to have fibers that are

71:18 down. They basically terminate and say fire. So then the signal doesn't

71:23 up. Alright, that kind of sense. In other words, you're

71:27 the brake before the signal ever reaches brain, so you don't perceive the

71:33 that kind of makes sense, You ? All right, let's use it

71:38 an example of the analgesics so that can perceive this. If I step

71:45 my legos here and I really hurt , How do I stop paying while

71:50 go and take ibuprofen? Right. receptors where I stepped on legos are

71:56 sending signals up to the brain. the analgesic is basically serving to block

72:01 signal so I no longer perceive So, analgesics modify the perception of

72:09 because they're dealing with the signal before ever gets up. All right.

72:15 aesthetics kind of do the same thing of All right, They block the

72:23 so that the signal is no longer to progress further and then we deal

72:31 the opiates. The opiates are the ones. We have opiates that our

72:38 produce and then we have opiates that can go and uh find in

72:44 For example. OPM is an That should be pretty obvious. But

72:51 a whole bunch of natural opiates. is an opiate. I think it's

72:55 opiate. Maybe I shouldn't say that I don't really know. Okay,

73:00 the opiates are the ways your body pain. So the endogenous once your

73:07 produces it. Alright, so let's , let's go to our favorite thing

73:10 . How many of you guys like food? It doesn't matter.

73:14 oriental, indian or asian, you ? Yeah. Alright. We're we're

73:20 good for that. Right? Why do we eat that food if

73:24 burns our mouth? Because it's Right? It makes me feel

73:29 doesn't it? Well, the reason makes you feel good is because your

73:33 responds to that pain and it says going to release endorphins for example.

73:40 those endorphins are then going to go soothe the pain and gives me a

73:46 of euphoria now. It's not like euphoria, But it's a sense of

73:53 . I'm going to look at some you guys who like to work

73:56 I don't like working out if I not work out, I'd be a

73:59 man. But I have to work because I'm old and I'm falling

74:04 All right. But there are people love to get up and go,

74:07 going running. I'm going running five miles just for giggles.

74:14 What is the thing that they get they go and run endorphins. It's

74:18 runner's high. Right? Because your is screaming at you going stop doing

74:22 pain. Pain ! Pain ! Remember what is what is pain?

74:25 is not weakness. Leaving the Pain is your body telling you stop

74:28 it? You're killing me and your going you're killing me And then it

74:31 all right, because you're killing I just if I'm gonna go I'm

74:34 go out with a smile, releases beta endorphins, your body goes,

74:38 ! And you're like, I'm just keep doing this because if I keep

74:41 I'm gonna keep getting these endorphins. . There's other ones besides endorphins.

74:47 a group called NKF Salons. There's group called the divine orphans. They're

74:52 over the place and their job is deal with the inhibition of that signal

74:58 going up. So you're still receiving receptors are still responding but they're not

75:04 to send the brain to that signal to the brain. So there's no

75:07 of pain. All right. They also act on those descending inhibitory

75:15 The natural occurring opiates do the same as the endogenous ones. Do the

75:19 , is there out in nature? right, That's that's the only

75:24 Same receptor, same chemical makeup. they it's not our body making

75:28 We're getting it from some external So that's where we're gonna stop today

75:33 we come back. We're going to with the special senses. Special senses

75:37 awesome. They're fun. I think . Alright. I'll be in my

75:43 until about 11, 10 or so I've got to go give an

75:47 but if you want to come, visit. I'm just gonna be hanging

75:54 . Mhm mm
