@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLAC -> BrainRegionLAC_FD_HT_VM
This page covers biological details of component Ventromedial Hypothalamic Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.
- Top-down path to region: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Hypothalamus (FD.HT) -> Anterior Hypothalamus Area (LAC.FD.HT.AHT) -> Tuberal Area (LAC.FD.HT.TUB) -> Ventromedial Hypothalamic Nucleus (LAC.FD.HT.VM) (see Mind Maps)
- Type: nucleus
- Quality: L0
- Brain area: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area (LAC)
- Area circuit: Thirst and Hunger Control (LATH)
- Role: processor.autonomic
- Function: Satiety, control of eating
- Notes to function:
- medial of tuberculum
