  2. Reticular formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reticular_formation

    This study has led to the idea that the caudal portion inhibits the rostral portion of the reticular formation. [citation needed] Sagittal division reveals more morphological distinctions. The raphe nuclei form a ridge in the middle of the reticular formation, and, directly to its periphery, there is a division called the medial reticular ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_pontine_reticular_nucleus

    The oral pontine reticular nucleus, or rostral pontine reticular nucleus is one of the two components of the medial (efferent/motor) zone of the pontine reticular formation - the other being the caudal pontine reticular nucleus.

  4. Gustatory nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustatory_nucleus

    The most pronounced gustatory nucleus is the rostral cap of the nucleus solitarius which is located at the ponto-medullary junction. Afferent taste fibers from the facial and from the facial and glossopharyngeal nerves are sent to the nucleus solitarius.

  5. Tegmentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tegmentum

    The tegmentum area includes various different structures, such as the rostral end of the reticular formation, several nuclei controlling eye movements, the periaqueductal gray matter, the red nucleus, the substantia nigra, and the ventral tegmental area. [3] The tegmentum is the location of several cranial nerve nuclei. The nuclei of CN III and ...

  6. Caudal pontine reticular nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caudal_pontine_reticular...

    The caudal pontine reticular nucleus or nucleus reticularis pontis caudalis is a portion of the reticular formation, composed of gigantocellular neurons. In rabbits and cats it is exclusively giant cells, however in humans there are normally sized cells as well. In rodents, it has been shown to play a role in the acoustic startle response. [1]

  7. Nucleus raphe pallidus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleus_raphe_pallidus

    It has been implied that the preoptic area is constantly inhibiting the raphe pallidus, especially the rostral portion, with GABA. When the preoptic area receives immune signals from the body, the inhibition stops and the rostral portion of the nucleus raphe pallidus excites the intermediolateral cell column, which induces a fever.
