The outputs from the primary thalamic reticular nucleus project to dorsal thalamic nuclei, but never to the cerebral cortex. [7] [8] This is the only thalamic nucleus that does not project to the cerebral cortex. Instead it modulates the information from other nuclei in the thalamus.
In fact, almost all thalamic neurons (with the notable exception of the thalamic reticular nucleus [6]) project to the cerebral cortex, and every region of the cortex so far studied has been found to innervate the thalamus. [7] Each of the thalami may be subdivided into at least 30 nuclei, giving a total of at least 60 for the whole thalamus ...
parafascicular nucleus [22] lateral nuclear group [13] [23] is replaced by posterior region [24] pulvinar [25] anterior pulvinar nucleus [26] lateral pulvinar nucleus [27] medial pulvinar nucleus [28] inferior pulvinar nucleus [29] lateral posterior nucleus [30] belongs to pulvinar; lateral dorsal nucleus [31] (a.k.a. dorsal superficial nucleus ...
Parvocellular reticular nucleus, part of the brain located dorsolateral to the caudal pontine reticular nucleus; Reticulotegmental nucleus, an area within the floor of the midbrain; Thalamic reticular nucleus, part of the ventral thalamus that forms a capsule around the thalamus laterally; Ventral reticular nucleus, a continuation of the ...
Thalamocortical radiations also innervate gustatory and olfactory pathways, as well as pre-frontal motor areas. Visual input from the optic tract is processed by the lateral geniculate nucleus of the thalamus, auditory input in the medial geniculate nucleus, and somatosensory input in the ventral posterior nucleus of the thalamus.
The reticular formation is a set of interconnected nuclei in the brainstem that spans from the lower end of the medulla oblongata to the upper end of the midbrain. [2] The neurons of the reticular formation make up a complex set of neural networks in the core of the brainstem. [3]
medial dorsal nucleus of thalamus; nucleus raphe magnus and gigantocellular raphe nucleus → raphespinal tract → spinal trigeminal nucleus and posterior grey column of the spinal cord - the fibers of the tract terminate by forming excitatory serotonergic synapses with inhibitory enkephalinergic interneurons which in turn form inhibitory ...
The intralaminar thalamic nuclei (ITN) are collections of neurons in the internal medullary lamina of the thalamus. [1] Anatomy ... central lateral nucleus;
