  2. Reticular formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reticular_formation

    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]

  5. Solitary tract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solitary_tract

    The solitary tract (tractus solitarius or fasciculus solitarius) is a compact fiber bundle that extends longitudinally through the posterolateral region of the medulla oblongata. The solitary tract is surrounded by the solitary nucleus, and descends to the upper cervical segments of the spinal cord. It was first named by Theodor Meynert in 1872.

  8. Gigantocellular reticular nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigantocellular_reticular...

    The gigantocellular reticular nucleus (also magnocellular reticular nucleus) is the (efferent/motor) medial zone of the reticular formation of the caudal pons and rostral medulla oblongata. It consists of a substantial number of giant neurons, but also contains small and medium sized neurons. [1]

  9. Arcuate nucleus (medulla) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcuate_nucleus_(medulla)

    In the medulla oblongata, the arcuate nucleus is a group of neurons located on the anterior surface of the medullary pyramids. These nuclei are the extension of the pontine nuclei. [1] They receive afferents from the corticospinal tract. [citation needed] They in turn project efferents into the cerebellum through the inferior cerebellar ...
