nuclei pontis

nuclei pontis
[TA] nuclei of pons: masses of nerve cells scattered throughout the ventral part of the pons, in which the longitudinal fibers of the pons terminate; the majority of axons arising from these cells cross to the opposite side and form the middle cerebellar peduncle, which projects to the cerebellar cortex and nuclei.
