The nervous system is basically the same as in other vertebrates, with a central brain, a spinal cord, and nerves throughout the body.

In vertebrates, the axons of many neurons are sheathed in myelin, which is formed by either of two types of glial cells: Schwann cells ensheathing peripheral neurons and oligodendrocytes insulating those of the central nervous system.

Any type of focal lesion of the central nervous system ( such as stroke, brain tumour, multiple sclerosis ) will cause the type of ataxia corresponding to the site of the lesion: cerebellar if in the cerebellum, sensory if in the dorsal spinal cord ( and rarely in the thalamus or parietal lobe ), vestibular if in the vestibular system ( including the vestibular areas of the cerebral cortex ).

Exogenous substances that cause ataxia mainly do so because they have a depressant effect on central nervous system function.

Analgesic drugs act in various ways on the peripheral and central nervous systems ; they include paracetamol ( para-acetylaminophenol, also known in the US as acetaminophen or simply APAP ), the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ( NSAIDs ) such as the salicylates, and opioid drugs such as morphine and opium.

Their use in the first trimester is also associated with a risk of major congenital malformations, particularly affecting the cardiovascular and central nervous systems.

Damage to the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system can occur from sustained alcohol consumption.

Alcohol's primary effect is the increase in stimulation of the GABA < sub > A </ sub > receptor, promoting central nervous system depression.
