41. Neurons in the globus pallidus are also inhibitory, thus inhibiting the excitatory neurons in the SNpr and VTh. 42. In this pathway the medium spiny neurons in the striatum project to the external segment of the globus pallidus . 43. The original host was a " Thamnodynastes pallidus " that died in a London zoo in 1934. 44. The nucleus raphe pallidus has recently been shown to be involved in the activation of a fever as an immunoreaction. 45. The "'medial globus pallidus "'contains GABAergic neurons, which allow for its inhibitory function. 46. Without it, nerve cells in an area called the globus pallidus fire abnormally, overcontrolling the body's movements. 47. The pallidus is near the optic tract and the internal capsule, a part of the brain that controls motor movements. 48. In primates, the dorsal pallidum, or globus pallidus , is divided into two parts by the medial medullary lamina. 49. The direct pathway passes through the caudate, putamen, and globus pallidus , which are parts of the basal ganglia. 50. The hippocampus and thalamus have been shown to be reduced in volume; and the volume of the globus pallidus is increased.
