OUTPUTS OF THE BASAL GANGLIA AND THEIR TRAJECTORIES

BG EFFERNTS

NERUONS AND CIRCUITS OF BG

CONNECTIONS OF THE NEOSTRIATUM WITH THE SUBSTANTIA NIGRA

CORTICAL LOOP

Cortex: 4,6,temporo, parietal and occipital glutamate

Striatum spiky GABA Pallidum medial

GABA Thalamus VL, VA

BG: SUBCORTICAL LOOPS

In the case of all sub-cortical loops the position of the thalamic relay is on the input side of the loop

Red – Excitatory Blue - Inhibitory

INTERNAL CONNECTIONS OF THE BASAL GANGLIA: DIRECT PATHWAY

INDIRECT PATHWAYS

PROJECTIONS FROM THE BASAL GANGLIA TO OTHER BRAIN REGIONS

FUNCTION OF BG

Voluntary movement Initiation of movement Control of ramp movement Change from one pattern to other Programming and correcting movement while in

progress (thalamocortical circuts) Postural control

Righting reflex Automatic associated movement (walking)

Control of muscle tone Reticulospinal Vestibulospinal

ABLATION STUDY Unilateral lesion minimal effect Denny Brown – Bilateral lesion -> Akinesia + Flexion

dystonia Brook – Cooling of GP -> Contralateral cocontraction of

antagoniastic muscle -> Flexion, alternate and amplitude of movement

Bilateral striatal ablation -> Overactive, does not respond to visual cue – walk to wall

Bilateral pallidal ablation -> Hypoactive akinetic Human sterotactic Gpi lesion -> tremor >rigidity Subthalamic Nucleus ablation -> Hemibalismus Bilateral CN ablation -> immobile animal VL thalamic cooling -> Ia discharge to stretch reflex -

> rigidity by y tone

STIMULATION STUDIES

CN stimulation -> head and body turn to opposite site, circling movement, or mild hypertonia, late tremor, changes tonic to clonic phase of epilepsy

Neostriatal stimulation -> arrest of motion in progress

MICROELECTRODE RECORDING Activity seen during initiation of internally generated

movement but not to stimulus triggered movement Activity seen during co-contraction of agonist (stimulus

triggered thus control amplitude and velocity of movement

Preparation of motor act or programming as MC and SMA React

Spontaneous movement of individual body part Alternating movement Visually and kinesthetically triggered movement Postural adjustment to body tilt Rapid ballistic movement Slow ramp movement Isometric muscle contraction

SNc – tonic discharge -> postural control SNr - phasic discharge change with limb movement

Cortex

DISCHARGE OF MOTOR CIRCUIT

No spontaneous discharge, only during limb movement

increased phasic activity

High spontaneous discharge, inhibit tonicaly thalamus

Phasic reduction of activity during movement due to disinhibition by striatum

Phasic activity during movement
