basal nucleus

It includes the lateral ventricles, basal nuclei, and white matter of the cerebrum.

For this reason, the basal ganglia are also occasionally known as the "basal nuclei".

A special membrane protein associated with the limbic system is said to concentrate in related structures and to travel towards the basal nuclei.

The basal ganglia (or basal nuclei) are three areas under the cerebral cortex.

Status marmoratus is the presence in full-term infants of basal nucleus lesions resulting from acute total asphyxia.

The basolateral complex can be further subdivided into the lateral, the basal, and the accessory basal nuclei.

The lowermost (or ventral) region forms the basal nuclei, and contains fibres connecting the rest of the cerebrum to the thalamus.

In reptiles, the paleopallium is much larger than in amphibians, and its growth has pushed the basal nuclei into the central regions of the cerebrum.

Partly due to this ambiguity, the Terminologia Anatomica recommends using the term basal nuclei instead of basal ganglia.

Buried deep in the white matter of the cerebral cortex are interconnected subcortical masses of cerebral grey matter called basal nuclei.

Most neuroanatomists disagree on how many brain centers to classify basal nuclei, but agree on at least three: the caudate nucleus, putamen, and globus pallidus.

It receives neuronal inputs from the basal nuclei which includes the substantia nigra and the globus pallidus (via the thalamic fasciculus).

Sensory information enters the amygdala through the nuclei of the basolateral complex (consisting of lateral, basal and accessory basal nuclei).

When adenosine builds up from the metabolism of ATP throughout the day, it binds to adenosine receptors, inhibiting the basal nucleus.

The basal ganglia (or basal nuclei) are a group of nuclei of varied origin in the brains of vertebrates that act as a cohesive functional unit.

Additionally, (not shown in diagram), the basal nucleus provides GABA-ergic inhibitory input to the pre-optic anterior hypothalamus (PAH).

The basal nuclei receive input from the substantia nigra of the midbrain and motor areas of the cerebral cortex, and send signals back to both of these locations.

In amphibians, the telencephalon distinctly shows medial, dorsal, lateral and ventral parts of the pallium, plus striatal, pallidal, diagonal and preoptic parts of the basal nuclei.

NGF is known have a predominant effect on the sympathetic ganglion cells and dorsal root ganglion cells with free nerve endings and the cholinergic neurons of the basal nucleus.

In tests where it is delivered to the lateral and basal nuclei in the amygdala of rats, the rats demonstrated that they had forgotten fear responses that they had been conditioned to display.

Superior to the brainstem, such tracts form a broad, dense sheet called the internal capsule between the thalamus and basal nuclei, then radiate in a diverging, fanlike array to specific areas of the cortex.

However, the activation of group I mGluRs in the LA and basal nucleus enhances the acquisition, reduction, and amplification of fear conditioning by provinding an influx of calcium ions.

The primary concentration of cholinergic neurons/cell bodies that project to the neocortex are in the basal nucleus of Meynert which is located in the substantia innominata of the anterior perforated substance.

Unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia in a new-born can lead to accumulation of bilirubin in certain brain regions (particularly the basal nuclei) with consequent irreversible damage to these areas manifesting as various neurological deficits, seizures, abnormal reflexes and eye movements.

The inner surfaces of the lateral and ventral regions of the cerebrum bulge up into the ventricles; these include both the basal nuclei and the various parts of the pallium, and may be complex in structure, especially in teleosts.
