@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLRC -> BrainRegionLRC_HT_PRF_CRF
This page covers biological details of component Caudal Pontine Reticular Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Metencephalon -> Pontine Reticular Formation (HT.RF) -> Pontine Reticular Formation, Medial Column (HT.RF.MED) -> Paramedian Pontine Reticular Formation (HT.PRF.PPRF) -> Caudal Pontine Reticular Nucleus (LRC.HT.PRF.CRF) (see Mind Maps)
- Type: nucleus
- Brain area: Lower Brain - Motor Reflex Area
- Role: subcortical.motor.flexor
- Function: Mediate head movements
- Notes to function: Grinding of the teeth in sleep, projections from superior colliculus, to spinal cord, extends to facial
