Loci of the greater limbic system. These are layered cell areas, more or less assembled as nuclei, whose electrical stimulation triggers behavioural and autonomic responses. These loci have been specifically studied by WR Klemm and RP Vertes in 1990. We can specifically mention, at the level of the ventrolateral part of the medulla oblongata, Bötzinger’s respiratory loci which generate the respiratory rhythm and the cardiovascular regulation locus (loci which recall the well-known “cardio-pneumo-enteric centre” of former physiologists!). At the level of the pons, reference has been made to Barrington’s micturition nucleus, the pontine swallowing centre and the pontine attack site as well as to the vocalisation cell group Voc. At the level of mesencephalon, most loci are located within the periaqueductal grey (PAG). They are the defensive behaviour locus, the PAG centre for micturition and the PAG centre for vocalisation.
