THE BASAL GANGLIA ARE MASSES OF GREY MATTER MADE OF CELL BODIES LYING DEEP INSIDE
THE WHITE MATTER OF THE CEREBRUM, AND MAKES UP PART OF THE MIDBRAIN.
BASAL GANGLIA
An upper mass is called the caudate nucleus,
is separated from a lower mass, the lentiform
nucleus. The lentiform nucleus consists of
the putamen and the globus pallidus. Other
nuclei include the substantia nigra and
subthalamic nucleus.

That comes from the cerebral cortex (motor area) and projects to the NEOSTRIATUM
(a term for the caudate nucleus and putamen)
MAIN INPUT TO THE BASAL GANGLIA
Is via the thalamus to the cerebral cortex
(motor area)

• Basal ganglia function in association with the corticospinal system to control complex patterns of motor activity.
• Examples are: – writing of letters of the alphabet. – cutting paper with scissors, – hammering nails, – shooting a basketball through a hoop, – passing a football, – throwing a baseball, – the movements of shoveling dirt, – most aspects of vocalization, – controlled movements of the eyes – virtually any other of our skilled movements, most of
them performed subconsciously.

The Putamen Circuit
![Page 19: BASAL GANGLIA AND CONTROL OF MOTOR FUNCTIONS](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061414/568134d3550346895d9bfc1f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Cognition means the thinking processes of the brain, using both sensory input to the brain plus information already stored in memory. Thoughts are generated in the mind by a process called cognitive control of motor activity.
• Example:A person seeing a lion approach and then responding instantaneously and automatically by (1) turning away from the lion, (2) beginning to run, and (3) even attempting to climb a tree.
• Thus, cognitive control of motor activity determines subconsciously, and within seconds, which patterns of movement will be used together to achieve a complex goal
Cognitive Control of Sequences of Motor Patterns
The Caudate Circuit
![Page 20: BASAL GANGLIA AND CONTROL OF MOTOR FUNCTIONS](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061414/568134d3550346895d9bfc1f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Two important capabilities of the brain in controlling movement are – (1) to determine how rapidly the movement is
to be performed and – (2) to control how large the movement will be.
• For instance, a person may write the letter "a" slowly or rapidly. Also, he or she may write a small "a" on a piece of paper or a large "a" on a chalkboard. Regardless of the choice, the proportional characteristics of the letter remain nearly the same

Movement Disorder
Features Lesion
Chorea Multiple quick, random movements, usually most prominent in the appendicular muscles
Atrophy of the striatum. Huntington Chorea
Athetosis Slow writhing movements,which are usually more severe in the appendicular muscles
Diffuse hypermyelination of corpus striatum and thalamus
Hemiballismus Wild flinging movements of half of the body

Parkinson’s Disease
• Described by James Parkinson • Degeneration of dopaminergic nigrostriatal
neurons (60-80 %). • Phenothiazines (tranquilizers drugs) .• Methyl-Phenyl-Tetrahydro-Pyridine (MPTP). The
oxidant MPP+ is toxic to SN.• Five cardinal features
– Tremor– Rigidity– Akinesia & Bradykinesia– Postural Changes– Speech Changes

• Hereditory , autosomal dominant
• Rare onset at 30-40s as early as 20s • Disease of caudate & putamen.• Early, Jerky movement of hands toward end
of reaching an object• Later, hyperkinetic choreiform movements
appear and gradually increase until they incapacitate the patient
• Slurred speech and incomprehensive• Progressive Dementia • Loss of GABA nergic neurons
