2. Subthalamus — (“sub” = below), located ventral to the thalamusand lateral to the hypothalamus (only present in mammals).a. Plays a role in the generation of rhythmic movementsb. Recent work indicates that stimulation of the subthalamus in catsinhibits the micturition reflex and thus this nucleus may also beinvolved in neural control of micturition.c. Stimulation of the subthalamus provides the most effectivetreatment for late-stage Parkinson’s disease in humans.Subthalamus
3. Thalamus — largest component of the diencephalona. comprised of a large number of nuclei; -->lateral geniculate (vision)and the medial geniculate (hearing).b. serves as the great sensory receiving area (receives sensory inputfrom all sensory pathways except olfaction) and relays sensoryinformation to the cerebral cortex.Thalamus
