Various Extrapyramidal Tracts Flashcards
Corticorubral function
From motor, premotor, and sensory strip
Corticorubral ( ipsilateral then proceeds) start and finish
Start in Cortex and end in red nucleus
Rubrospinal (contralateral) start and end
Red nucleus and end in spinal column
Cerebellum and BG to BS red nucleus
Rubropspinal function
Inhibitory control (not too much, movement, tone)
Corticoreticular ( ipsilateral then proceeds) start and end
Start in Cortex and end in reticular formation
From motor, premotor, and sensory strip to reticular formation in the BS (pond and medulla)
Corticoreticular function
Support posture and walking
Reticulospinal (ipsilateral and contralateral start and end
Reticular formation to spinal cord
LMNs
Reticulospinal function
Manitoban tone for trunk and posture- indirectly influence LMN
Vestibulospinal (ipsilateral and contralateral) start and end
Start at vestibular nuclei and end in certain aspects if spinal column
From vestibular nuclei, below 4th ventricle, within pons and medulla– cerebellum and spinal cord
Vestibulospinal function
