| palpebral branches of infratrochlear nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branches of infratrochlear nerve supplying skin of medial aspects of upper and lower eyelids. Synonym: rami palpebrales nervi infratrochlearis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| vascular circle of optic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A network of branches of the short ciliary arteries on the sclera around the point of entrance of the optic nerve. Synonym: circulus vasculosus nervi optici, circulus arteriosus halleri, circulus zinnii, Haller's circle, Zinn's corona, Zinn's vascular circle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A small nerve filament that supplies the wall of a blood vessel. Synonym: nervus vascularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vasomotor nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A motor nerve effecting or inhibiting contraction of the blood vessels. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mandibular nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the trigeminal (5th cranial) nerve. The mandibular nerve carries motor fibres to the muscles of mastication and sensory fibres to the teeth and gingivae, the face in the region of the mandible, and parts of the dura. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventral primary ramus of spinal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The larger, anterolaterally-directed major terminal branch (with the dorsal primary ramus) of all 31 pairs of mixed spinal nerves, formed at the intervertebral foramen. Most ventral primary rami, especially those involved in the innervation of the limbs, participate in the formation of the major nerve plexuses (cervical, brachial, and lumbosacral) and lose their identities. Most in the thoracic region, however, remain separate from adjacent rami to become the intercostal and subcostal nerves. Ventral primary rami provide innervation to the anterolateral body wall and trunk. Nomina Anatomica lists ventral primary rami as "rami ventrales" for each group of spinal nerves: 1) cervical (nervorum cervicalium ), 2) thoracic (nervorum thoracicorum ), 3) lumbar (nervorum lumbalium ), 4) sacral (nervorum sacralium )m, and 5) coccygeal (nervi coccygei ). Synonym: ramus ventralis nervi spinalis, anterior primary division. (05 Mar 2000) |
| geniculum of facial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A rectangular bend of the facial nerve in the facial canal where it turns posterior in the medial wall of the middle ear (external geniculum), complex loop of facial nerve fibres around the abducens nucleus (internal geniculum). Synonym: geniculum nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| marginal mandibular branch of facial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch of facial nerve which parallels the mandibular margin innervating risorius muscle and muscles of lower lip and chin. Synonym: ramus marginalis mandibulae nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genital branch of genitofemoral nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch of genitofemoral nerve distributed to skin of anterior scrotum (male) or labia majora (female) and adjacent thigh and supplying a motor branch to the cremaster muscle. Usually passes through deep inguinal ring and canal. Synonym: ramus genitalis nervi genitofemoralis, external spermatic nerve, nervus spermaticus externus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genital branch of iliohypogastric nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Distribution, skin on pubis. Synonym: ramus cutaneus anterior nervi iliohypogastrici, genital branch of iliohypogastric nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genitocrural nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Arises from the first and second lumbar nerves, passes distad along the anterior surface of psoas major muscle and divides into genital and femoral branches. Synonym: nervus genitofemoralis, genitocrural nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genitofemoral nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Arises from the first and second lumbar nerves, passes distad along the anterior surface of psoas major muscle and divides into genital and femoral branches. Synonym: nervus genitofemoralis, genitocrural nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| receptors, nerve growth factor | Cell surface receptors that bind nerve growth factor (ngf) and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behaviour of cells. Nerve growth factor receptors mediate the effects of nerve growth factor on the survival and growth of neurons. (12 Dec 1998) |
| parasympathetic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of the nerve's of the parasympathetic nervous system. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genu of facial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The curve which the fibres of the root of the facial nerve describe around the abducens nucleus in the pontine tegmentum; the internal genu of the facial nerve. Synonym: genu nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
