The trapezoid body is part of the auditory pathway where some of the axons coming from the cochlear nucleus decussate, or cross over to the other side before traveling on to the superior olivary nucleus. This is believed to help with localization of sound.
30 paź 2023 · The pons is the part of the brainstem between the midbrain (rostral) and the medulla oblongata (caudal), located anterior to the cerebellum. The pons contains various structures that are responsible for maintaining several key functions of the body.
30 sty 2023 · The transverse section at the middle cerebellar peduncle shows the trapezoid body, medial lemniscus, lateral lemniscus, and trigeminal nucleus (sensory and main motor). Pontine structures at the level of the facial nucleus are the abducens nerve nucleus, facial nerve nucleus, and vestibular nuclei.
The trapezoid body contains the decussation of auditory fibers and the trapezoid nucleus (Fig. 8.61). The nuclei of the trapezoid body and the superior olivary complex are part of the integration of the reflex involving the acoustic radiation and the nucleus of the sixth nerve.
The medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) is a collection of brainstem neurons that function within the ascending auditory pathway. MNTB neurons are associated with a number of anatomical and physiological specializations which make these cells especially well-equipped to provide extremely fast and precise glycinergic inhibition to
12 cze 2008 · The medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) is a glycinergic brainstem nucleus which provides well-timed inhibition to other brainstem nuclei like the lateral and medial superior olive and the superior paraolivary nucleus (SPN, equivalent to the dorsomedial paraolivary nucleus in cat and guinea pig).
11 lut 2019 · The trapezoid body (tz) and superior olive (SOl) identify rhombomere 5 (r5), but these structures are not visible on the ventral surface of the human brain stem as they are covered by the overhanging caudal pons.
