Some play a critical role in sensation and motor control. Thalamic nuclei also appear important for transferring information from one part of the cerebral cortex to another. The thalamus is so strongly interrelated with the cerebral cortex that in some senses it can be regarded as the deepest ...
Thalamus Abstract Thethalamus, also called thedorsal thalamus, is a large, paired, egg-shaped mass of nuclei located in the diencephalon (seeFigs. 23.1 to 23.3). It is bounded rostrally by the interventricular foramen, dorsally by the transverse cerebral fissure, ventrally by the hypothalamic sul...

Animals must distinguish between signals from sensory stimuli and action-generated signals. This paper shows that the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus acts as a corollary discharge center to suppress motion-induced visual signals, orchestrating accurate perception and motor control. ...
c-Jun is a key regulator of gene expression. Through the formation of homo- or heterodimers, c-JUN binds to DNA and regulates gene transcription. While c-Jun plays a crucial role in embryonic development, its impact on nervous system development in highe

Functionally, the VMN might play a particular role in interception, that is, the ability to sense and be aware of the body's condition. The ventral lateral nucleus (VLN; lateral thalamus) also receives input from the STT, projects to the motor cortex, and likely contributes to sensorimotor ...
Structures in the brain that play a major role in producing emotion and motivating behavior are called the: a. thalamic branch b. cerebellar activating system of the RAS c. medial brainstem d. limbic system The limbic system...
The function of thalamus in the human brain is it plays a crucial role in regulating states of sleep and wakefulness. Thalamic nuclei have strong reciprocal connections with the cerebral mantle that help in the formation of thalamo-cortico thalamic circuits that are believed to be involved in con...
In line with the role played by TCD in the disease, in PD patients, theta rhythms initially appear as a pseudo-periodic intrusion on resting-state background activity and later spread out to the whole cortex [78,131,132,133]. EEG abnormalities with TCD-like frequencies also occur in DLB ...
