Ambiguus Nucleus

@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLPC -> BrainRegionLPC_HL_AMB


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

  • Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Myelencephalon -> Myelencephalic Motor Nuclei (HL.MN) -> Expiratory Center (HL.RC) -> Ambiguus Nucleus (LPC.HL.AMB) (see Mind Maps)
  • Type: nucleus
  • Quality: L0
  • Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area (LPC)
  • Area circuit: Breathing and Swallowing Motor (ABS)
  • Role: flexor.nucleus
  • Function: Control muscles of the soft palate, pharynx, and larnyx
  • Notes to function:
    • On par with VGM, speech
    • speech and swallowing, parasympathetic, innervates the cardiac ganglia to contribute to the control of heart rate
