Biology:Central lateral nucleus
From HandWiki
Short description: Part of the thalamus in the human brain
In the human brain, the central lateral nucleus is a part of the anterior intralaminar nucleus in the thalamus.[1] The intralaminar nuclei project to many different regions of the brain,[2] The thalamus acts generally as a relay point for the brain for other areas of the brain to link to. The central lateral nucleus acts as a vital role in consciousness.[3][4] This area of the brain also affects conditioned emotional responses, such as fear conditioning.[5]
