@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLPC -> BrainRegionLPC_HT_ABD
This page covers biological details of component Abducens Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- Top-down path to region: Hindbrain Metencephalon -> Metencephalic Motor Nuclei (HT.MN) -> Abducens Nucleus (LPC.HT.ABD) (see Mind Maps)
- Type: nucleus
- Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
- Role: relay
- Function: Conjugated movements of both eyes
- Notes to function: Motoneurons - to muscle, interneurons - to OCN
