@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLAC -> BrainRegionLAC_FD_HT_MPO


This page covers biological details of component Median Preoptic Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

  • Top-down path to region: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Hypothalamus (FD.HT) -> Anterior Hypothalamus Area (LAC.FD.HT.AHT) -> Chiasmatic Area (LAC.FD.HT.CHS) -> Preoptic Nucleus (LAC.FD.HT.PO) -> Median Preoptic Nucleus (LAC.FD.HT.MPO) (see Mind Maps)
  • Type: nucleus
  • Quality: L0
  • Brain area: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area (LAC)
  • Area circuit: Autonomic Thermoregulation (LAT)
  • Role: processor.autonomic
  • Function: generates thirst
  • Notes to function:
    • Drinking decreases noradrenaline release in median preoptic nucleus
