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

  • Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Myelencephalon -> Myelencephalic Parasympathetic Nuclei (HL.PSN) -> Salivatory Nucleus (LAC.HL.SAL) -> Inferior Salivatory Nucleus (LAC.HL.SAL.ISL) (see Mind Maps)
  • Type: nucleus
  • Quality: L0
  • Brain area: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area (LAC)
  • Area circuit: Salivation and Tears Control (LAS)
  • Role: parasympathetic.nucleus
  • Function: facilitate digestion - produce watery saliva
  • Notes to function:
    • preganglionic parasympathetic nucleus
    • project to otic ganglion to parotid and lingual (von Ebner) salivatory glands
    • posterior pulmonary plexus - motor fibers are derived from inferior salivatory nucleus
    • glossopharyngeal nerve
