  2. Grey columns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_columns

    The location of motor neurons in the anterior grey column of the spinal cord. The anterior grey column, (also known as the anterior horn of spinal cord and anterior cornu) is broad and of a rounded or quadrangular shape. Its posterior part is termed the base, and its anterior part the head, but these are not differentiated from each other by ...

  3. Anterior horn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_horn

    anterior horn of lateral ventricle in the brain, which passes forward, laterally, and slightly downward from the interventricular foramen into the frontal lobe anterior horn of spinal cord , the ventral (front) grey matter section of the spinal cord which contains motor neurons that affect the skeletal muscles

  4. Spinocerebellar tracts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinocerebellar_tracts

    The sensory neurons synapse in the posterior thoracic nucleus also known as Clarke's nucleus. This is a column of relay neuron cell bodies within the medial gray matter within the spinal cord in layer VII (just beneath the dorsal horn), specifically between T1-L3.

  5. Rexed laminae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rexed_laminae

    Lamina VII: intermediomedial nucleus, intermediolateral nucleus, posterior thoracic nucleus in the thoracic and upper lumbar region [6] Lamina X: an area of grey matter – the grey commissure surrounding the central canal. This region also serves to connect the anterior and posterior grey columns. [3] Rexed never described this as lamina X but ...

  6. Posterior horn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_horn

    Posterior horn of lateral ventricle in the brain, which passes forward, laterally and slightly downward, from the corpus callosum into the occipital lobe Posterior horn of spinal cord , the dorsal (towards the back) grey matter section of the spinal cord that receives several types of sensory information from the body including light touch ...

Ventral posterior lateral nucleus; Ventral posterior medial nucleus; Metathalamus. Medial geniculate body; Lateral geniculate body; Thalamic reticular nucleus

  8. Spinothalamic tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinothalamic_tract

    The anterior spinothalamic tract (Latin: tractus spinothalamicus anterior) or ventral spinothalamic fasciculus situated in the marginal part of the anterior funiculus and intermingled more or less with the vestibulospinal tract, is derived from cells in the posterior column or intermediate gray matter of the opposite side.

  9. Dorsal column–medial lemniscus pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsal_column–medial...

    The action signal will continue along the central axon of the neuron through the posterior root, into the posterior horn, and up the posterior column of the spinal cord. Axons from the lower body enter the posterior column below the level of T6 and travel in the midline section of the column called the gracile fasciculus. [5]
