Vagus Nucleus

@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLAC -> BrainRegionLAC_HL_VGN

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

• Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Myelencephalon -> Myelencephalic Parasympathetic Nuclei (HL.PSN) -> Vagus Nucleus (LAC.HL.VGN) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area
• Role: parasympathetic.nucleus
• Function: Parasympathetic vagal functions in the gastrointestinal tract, lungs
• Notes to function: Dorsal Motor Nucleus, Cardioinhibitory Center; preganglionic nucleus
