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

  • Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Myelencephalon -> Medullary Reticular Formation (HL.RF) -> Medullary Reticular Formation, Medial Column (HL.RF.MED) -> Gigantocellular Reticular Nucleus (LRC.HL.PRF.GCR) (see Mind Maps)
  • Type: nucleus
  • Quality: L0
  • Brain area: Lower Brain - Motor Reflex Area (LRC)
  • Area circuit: Postural Control Reflexes (LRP)
  • Role: subcortical.motor.flexor
  • Function: Vasodepressor center
  • Notes to function:
    • Projects to hypoglossal nucleus, abducens
    • medullary (lateral) reticulospinal tract
    • excite trunk flexors, inhibit extensors
    • stimulation induces inspiration
