| 영문 | nerve cell | 한글 | 신경세포 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 신경세포는 올바른 신경전달을 위한 각 부분별로 나뉘어져 있다. 신경세포에서는 전해져오는 자극을 전기적인 신호로 바뀌어 보내거나 받게 된다. 이런 전기적인 현상은 각 신경세포내에 존재하는 각 이온채널(ion channel: ion이란 나트륨, 칼륨 등을 지칭하는 말들로써, 이들이 세포막에 의해 나뉘어질 때 생기는 전압차가 전기적 자극을 일으키고 유지하는데 결정적인 역할을 한다)들의 작용에 의해 이루어지게 된다. |

| 영문 | facial nerve | 한글 | 얼굴신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 표정근을 지배하는 큰 운동신경과 작은 중간신경으로 구성된다. 좁은 의미의 얼굴신경과 중간신경으로 이루어지는 혼합신경이다. 속귀신경과 함께 속귓길로 들어가고 그 바닥에서 속귀신경과 갈라져 얼굴신경관으로 들어가, 거의 직각으로 구부러지는 부분을 얼굴신경무릎이라 하며, 여기에 무릎신경마디가 있다. |

| corpus nuclei caudati | The suprathalamic part of the caudate nucleus lying in the floor of the central part of the lateral ventricle. Synonym: corpus nuclei caudati. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| pontine nuclei | The massive gray matter filling the basilar pons. The nuclei are of fairly homogeneous architecture and project to the cortex of the contralateral cerebellar hemisphere by way of the middle cerebellar peduncle. Their main afferents come from the entire extent of the cerebral neocortex by way of the longitudinal pontine bundles (corticopontine fibres); thus, the pontine nuclei form a major way-station in the impulse conduction from the cerebral cortex of one hemisphere to the posterior lobe of the opposite cerebellum. Synonym: nuclei pontis, pontine gray matter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hilum nuclei dentati | The mouth of the flasklike dentate nucleus of the cerebellum, directed inward, and giving exit to many of the fibres which compose the superior cerebellar peduncle or brachium conjunctivum. Synonym: hilum nuclei dentati. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hilum nuclei olivaris | The medially oriented opening in the folded cell layer composing the inferior olivary nucleus through which the efferent fibres of the nucleus make their exit. Synonym: hilum nuclei olivaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| secondary sensory nuclei | Nuclei terminales, collective term indicating those nerve cell groups in the rhombencephalon and spinal cord in which the afferent fibres of the spinal and cranial nerves terminate. Synonym: nuclei terminationis, secondary sensory nuclei. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sensory nuclei | A group of cell bodies that receive afferent (sensory) input from the periphery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal nuclei | Neural nuclei situated in the septal region of the diencephalon. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sole nuclei | An accumulation of skeletal muscle fibre nuclei at the myoneural junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| somatic motor nuclei | Collective term indicating the motor nuclei innervating the tongue musculature (hypoglossal nucleus) and the extraocular eye muscles (abducens nucleu, trochlear nucleus, and oculomotor nucleus). (05 Mar 2000) |
| special visceral efferent nuclei | Collective term for those motoneuronal nuclei of the brainstem (n. Ambiguus, facial motor nucleus, motor nucleus of the trigeminus) that develop from the branchiomotor column of the embryo and innervate striated muscle fibres (muscles of mastication, facial musculature, pharynx and vocal cord muscles) developed from the mesenchyme of the branchial arches. Synonym: special visceral efferent nuclei, special visceral motor nuclei. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nuclei | Plural of nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclei anteriores thalami | Collective term for three groups of nerve cells which together form the anterior thalamic tubercle: the anteroventral nuclei, a relatively large nucleus; the anteromedial nuclei; and the anterodorsal nuclei, a small (but large-celled) nucleus. The nuclei receive the mamillothalamic tract from the mamillary body, and additional afferents by way of the fornix; they project collectively to the cortex of the cingulate and parahippocampal gyrus. Synonym: nuclei anteriores thalami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclei arcuati | A variable assembly of small cell groups, probably outlying components of the pontine nuclei, on the ventral and medial aspects of the pyramid in the medulla oblongata. Synonym: nuclei arcuati. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclei basales | Nucleus of the cerebral hemisphere that originally included the caudate and lenticular nuclei, the claustrum and the amygdaloid body (complex); functionally the term basal nuclei now specifies the caudate and lenticular nuclei and adjacent cell groups having important connections therewith (subthalamic nucleus; substantia nigra, partes compacta and reticulata); amygdaloid complex now known to be part of the limbic system. Synonym: nuclei basales. (05 Mar 2000) |
