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

• Top-down path to region: Spinal Cord -> Posterior/Dorsal Horn (BMA.SC.PH) -> Lamina III, IV (BMA.SC.PH.L34) -> Proprius Nucleus (LPC.SC.PH.NP) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
• Role: sensory.nucleus
• Function: Relay light touch, pain and temperature information
• Notes to function: With Clarke's Nucleus sensing fine touch and proprioception
