@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLPC -> BrainRegionLPC_MM_TRH

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

• *Top-down path to region*: Midbrain Mesencephalon -> Perhipheral Nuclei of Midbrain Mesencephalon (MM.PER) -> Trochlear Nucleus (LPC.MM.TRH) (see Mind Maps)
• *Type*: nucleus
• *Brain area*: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
• *Role*: relay
• *Function*: Control superior oblique muscles of eyes
• *Notes to function*: Muscle nucleus, change eye direction
