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

  * *Top-down path to region*: Forebrain Diencephalon -> [BrainCenterFD_HT Hypothalamus] (FD.HT) -> Lateral Hypothalamic Area (LAC.FD.HT.LT) -> Lateral Tuberal Nuclei (LAC.FD.HT.LTUB) -> [BrainRegionLAC_FD_HT_PRM Premammillary Nucleus] (LAC.FD.HT.PRM) (see [OverallMindMaps Mind Maps])
  * *Type*: nucleus
  * *Quality*: L0
  * *Brain area*: [BrainAreaLAC Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area] (LAC)
  * *Area circuit*: Memory Autonomic Control (LAMM)
  * *Role*: processor.autonomic
  * *Function*: expression of fear responses to environmental threats
  * *Notes to function*: 
   * integrate information involved in spatial working memory, which may result in attentional mechanisms on selection of appropriate escape strategies
