Difference between Pontine micturition center and Urination

Pontine micturition center vs. Urination

The Pontine micturition center (PMC, also known as Barrington's nucleus) is a collection of neuronal cell bodies located in the rostral pons in the brainstem involved in the supraspinal regulation of micturition. Urination is the release of urine from the urinary bladder through the urethra to the outside of the body.

Similarities between Pontine micturition center and Urination

Pontine micturition center and Urination have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Detrusor muscle, External sphincter muscle of female urethra, External sphincter muscle of male urethra, Onuf's nucleus, Parasympathetic nervous system, Periaqueductal gray, Urinary bladder, Urination.

Detrusor muscle

The detrusor muscle, also detrusor urinae muscle, muscularis propria of the urinary bladder and (less precise) muscularis propria, is smooth muscle found in the wall of the bladder.

External sphincter muscle of male urethra

The external sphincter muscle of urethra (or sphincter urethrae membranaceae) surrounds the whole length of the membranous portion of the urethra, and is enclosed in the fasciæ of the urogenital diaphragm.

Onuf's nucleus

Onuf's nucleus is a distinct group of neurons located in the ventral part (laminae IX) of the anterior horn of the sacral region of the human spinal cord involved in the maintenance of micturition and defecatory continence, as well as muscular contraction during orgasm.

Parasympathetic nervous system

The parasympathetic nervous system (PSNS) is one of the two divisions of the autonomic nervous system (a division of the peripheral nervous system (PNS)), the other being the sympathetic nervous system.
