This page covers biological details of component Tuberomammillary Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• *Top-down path to region*: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Hypothalamus (HTA.FD.HT) -> Lateral Hypothalamic Area (HTA.FD.HT.LT) -> Lateral Tuberal Nuclei (HTA.FD.HT.LTUB) -> Tuberomammillary Nucleus (LAC.FD.HT.TBM) (see Mind Maps)
• *Type*: nucleus
• *Brain area*: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area
• *Role*: relay
• *Function*: sole source of histamine in the brain
• *Notes to function*: regulate sleep, helps produce responses to sexual stimuli, and helps body respond to stressful situations
