Ventral Pallidum part of Globus Pallidus?

[edit]

In the humans I believe that Globus Pallidus= Pallidum, therefore is ventral palladium part of the Globus Paillidus? It appears that perhaps Ventral Pallidum is more commonly used in the rodent literature but not so much in the human literature. Currently the article doesn't mention the globus pallidus so I find this confusing. 159.92.175.159 (talk) 13:45, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is a part of the globus pallidus, and according to the identifiers it also includes part of the substantia innominata. My knowledge of neuroanatomy is very limited, so that's all I can tell you. The source used by the identifiers is this[1], in case that you want to have a closer look at the subject. --Tilifa Ocaufa (talk) 14:27, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am not 100% knowledgable in neuroscience, but am I correct in reasoning that the OT is connected to the VP? If so, does this mean VP could have an effect on addiction with drugs like coke from what ive seen? NelloFellow (talk) 19:18, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
