Lateral parabrachial nucleus This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article "Lateral_parabrachial_nucleus".
The lateral parabrachial nucleus induces thirst by stimulating the median preoptic nucleus.[1]
It gets its name from its location relative to the superior cerebellar peduncles, which is also known as the "brachia conjunctiva".
