Figure 8.3 : The brain-stem nuclei involved in generating the core self. As shown in Figure 4.1, several brain-stem nuclei work together to ensure homeostasis. But the homeostasis-related nuclei project to other groups of brain-stem nuclei (other brain-stem nuclei, in this figure). These other nuclei are grouped in functional families: the classical nuclei of the reticular formation, such as the nucleus pontis oralis and nucleus cuneiform, which influence the cerebral cortex via the intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus; the monoaminergic nuclei, which directly release molecules such as noradrenalin, serotonin, and dopamine to widespread regions of the cerebral cortex; and the cholinergic nuclei, which release acetylcholine.
