The Supervisory Upper commissure [. Supraoptica, Pna; S. Superior (Meynerti), Bna; S. Dorsalis, Jna; Syn. Meynert Spike]

The commissure of Meynert is a bundle of nerve fibers in the midbrain that passes over the optic chiasm. It connects the basal nuclei of the right and left hemispheres, the superior colliculus of the midbrain roof plate and the hypothalamus of the opposite side, as well as the nucleus of the lateral loop system with the superior and inferior colliculi of the midbrain roof plate.

The commissure of Meynert is one of the most important structures in the brain, as it is involved in the regulation of many functions such as vision, hearing, memory and attention. It plays an important role in processing information from the senses and transmitting it to other parts of the brain for processing.

In a normal state, the commissure of Meynert functions without disturbances. However, in some diseases, such as epilepsy, it can be damaged or impaired. This can lead to a variety of symptoms, including seizures, loss of consciousness, vision and hearing problems.

However, despite the fact that Meynert's commissure plays an important role in brain function, its study still remains one of the most challenging tasks in neuroscience. This is because this structure is located in a location in the brain that is difficult to directly study.



The superior commissure (supraoptica) is one of the important elements in the system of nerve connections of the brain. It connects the basal ganglia with the hypothalamus, the superior colliculus of the midbrain roof plate and the nucleus of the lateral lemniscus. In addition, the superior commissure can be connected to other nerve centers such as the thalamus, hippocampus and other parts of the brain.

The superior commissure is very important for the regulation of many body functions, such as sleep, wakefulness, memory and many others. It also plays an important role in processing information in the brain and in shaping emotions and behavior.

However, despite the fact that the superior commissure is of great importance for normal brain function, its dysfunction can lead to various diseases such as depression, anxiety, memory impairment and others.

Thus, the superior commissure plays an important role in brain function, and its dysfunction can lead to serious health problems.
