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

• Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Myelencephalon -> Myelencephalic Motor Nuclei (HL.MN) -> Expiratory Center (HL.RC) -> Retroambigualis Nucleus (LRC.HL.RA) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Quality: L0
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Motor Reflex Area (LRC)
• Area circuit: Breathing and Swallowing Reflexes (LRB)
• Role: subcortical.motor.flexor
• Function: Groups of premotor interneurons producing detailed motor actions
• Notes to function:
  • Different combination of activation of these premotor neurons determines vocalization, vomiting, coughing, sneezing, mating posture, or child delivery
  • ventral respiratory group
