Uberon definition : A region of histologically disparate cells located just dorsal to the inferior olivary
nucleus in the lateral portion of the upper medulla. It receives upper motor neuron
innervation directly via the corticobulbar tract This nucleus gives rise to the efferent
motor fibers of the vagus nerve terminating in the laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles,
as well as to the efferent motor fibers of the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) terminating
in the stylopharyngeus. [WP,unvetted].;
