septal nucleus

The septum pellucidum is often confused with the septal nuclei.

The septal nuclei play a role in reward and reinforcement along with the nucleus accumbens.

Neurons in this nucleus give rise to the bulk of efferents from the septal nuclei.

A major projection from the medial septal nucleus terminates in the hippocampal formation.

Medial septal nucleus acts mainly on M1 receptors in the hippocampus and neocortex.

The lateral septal nucleus, a major recipient of hippocampal output, probably does not play an essential role in generating theta.

The medial septal nucleus is one of the septal nuclei.

Septal nuclei, a set of structures that lie in front of the lamina terminalis, considered a pleasure zone.

Along with Covian, Lico studied pressor responses to the stimulation of septal nuclei.

Lico produced important insights on the descending control of nociception by limbic structures, specially the septal nuclei.

The septal nuclei are composed of medium-size neurons which are classified into medial, lateral, and posterior groups.

The anterior fibers (precommissural fornix) end at the septal nuclei and nucleus accumbens of each half of the brain.

The critical septal region includes the medial septal nucleus and the vertical limb of the diagonal band of Broca.

It includes the nucleus accumbens, nucleus basalis, diagonal band of Broca, substantia innominata, and medial septal nuclei.

It is a fiber bundle containing afferent fibers from the septal nuclei, lateral preoptico-hypothalamic region, and anterior thalamic nuclei to the habenula.

Indeed, activation of the mGlu receptor alone can bring about LTP in both the hippocampus and in the dorsolateral septal nucleus.

In the basal forebrain, it originates from the basal optic nucleus of Meynert and medial septal nucleus:

Nerve impulses from the habenular nuclei are transmitted to the septal nuclei via the stria medullaris, which is found on the medial surface of the thalamus.

The septal nuclei receive reciprocal connections from the olfactory bulb, hippocampus, amygdala, hypothalamus, midbrain, habenula, cingulate gyrus, and thalamus.

Psychologist Alan A. Baumeister describes at least one such instance: researcher Roy Heath failed to recognized evidence of "pleasure brain circuits" (in the septal nuclei).

The areas involved in aggression in mammals include the amygdala, hypothalamus, prefrontal cortex, cingulate cortex, hippocampus, septal nuclei, and periaqueductal gray of the midbrain.

Along with the septum pellucidum and medial septal nucleus, the diagonal band of Broca is believed to be involved in the generation of theta waves in the hippocampus.

Fusion of the CSP is attributed to rapid development of the alvei of the hippocampus, amygdala, septal nuclei, fornix, corpus callosum and other midline structures.

The pyramidal neurons send projections to the nucleus accumbens, septal nuclei, prefrontal cortex, lateral hypothalamus, nucleus reuniens, mammillary nuclei, entorhinal cortex and amygdala.

Its vascular territory is the anteromedial section of the caudate nucleus and the anterioinferior section of the internal capsule, as well as parts of the putamen and septal nuclei.
