It ascends superiorly in the basilar sulcus ventral to the pons and divides at the ponto-mesencephalic junction into the paired posterior cerebral arteries close to the pituitary stalk.

Ommaya s cetripedal theory identified that the effects always begin at the surface of the brain in mild injury and extend inward to affect the diencephalic-mesencephalic core in more severe injury.

Later on, the upper eyelids become retracted and the eyes are turned downwards ( " sunset eyes " ) ( due to hydrocephalic pressure on the mesencephalic tegmentum and paralysis of upward gaze ).

2012 : Scientists at the University of Miami Bascom Palmer Eye Institute presented data showing protection of photoreceptors in an animal model when eyes were injected with mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor ( MANF ).

Regions in the brainstem that are not involved in visual perception also project to the LGN, such as the mesencephalic reticular formation, dorsal raphe nucleus, periaqueuctal grey matter, and the locus coeruleus.

As with most other reflexes, the response to the stimulus is monosynaptic, with sensory neurons of the trigeminal mesencephalic nucleus sending axons to the trigeminal motor nucleus, which in turn innervates the masseter.

Proprioception of the head stems from the muscles innervated by the trigeminal nerve, where the Gasserian ganglion ( first-order sensory neuron ), reaching the mesencephalic tract and the mesencephalic nucleus of trigeminal nerve.

The alar plate specifically later on becomes the dorsal gray of the spinal cord, and develops into the sensory nuclei of cranial nerves mesencephalic nucleus of V, and main sensory nucleus of V are also developed from this plate.

This model is sufficient to describe complex properties of behavior, such as different regimes of the extensor-and flexor-dominant locomotion observed during electrical stimulation of the mesencephalic locomotor region ( MLR ), MLR-induced fictive locomotion.
