nerve net - CISMeF

Preferred Label : nerve net;

MeSH definition : A meshlike structure composed of interconnecting nerve cells that are separated at the synaptic junction or joined to one another by cytoplasmic processes. In invertebrates, for example, the nerve net allows nerve impulses to spread over a wide area of the net because synapses can pass information in any direction.;

MeSH synonym : nerve nets; net, nerve; nets, nerve;

MeSH Hyperonym : neural networks (Anatomic); Network, Neural (Anatomic); Networks, Neural (Anatomic); Neural Network (Anatomic);

MeSH annotation : do not confuse X ref on anat neural networks with NEURAL NETWORKS (COMPUTER); note entry term NEURAL NETWORKS (ANATOMIC): NEURAL NETWORKS, COMPUTER is also available;
