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 -> [BrainCenterFD_HT Hypothalamus] (FD.HT) -> Lateral Hypothalamic Area (LAC.FD.HT.LT) -> Lateral Tuberal Nuclei (LAC.FD.HT.LTUB) -> [BrainRegionLAC_FD_HT_TBM Tuberomammillary Nucleus] (LAC.FD.HT.TBM) (see [OverallMindMaps Mind Maps])
  * *Type*: nucleus
  * *Quality*: L0
  * *Brain area*: [BrainAreaLAC Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area] (LAC)
  * *Area circuit*: Daily Cycle Autonomic Control (LADC)
  * *Role*: processor.autonomic
  * *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
