Alcohol also stimulates a small group of neurons that extends from the midbrain to the nucleus accumbens, a region important for motivation.

酒精也会对一小部分神经细胞有激活效果，并从中脑持续到伏隔核区域，而伏隔核在奖赏和快乐等感官体验中具有重要。

Here we're using optogenetics to target neurons living in the hypothalamus, sending messages down wires aimed at the midbrain.

在这里， 我们使光遗传学来靶向生活在下丘脑中神经元，将信息沿着针对中脑导线发送。

Once inside the brain, Levodopa is efficiently converted to dopamine thus supplementing depleted dopamine levels in the midbrain.

一旦进入大脑，左旋多巴就会有效地转化为多巴胺，从而补充体内多巴胺中脑多巴胺水平。

In contrast, neurons in a section of the midbrain called the substantia nigra are in charge of initiating movement and other motor function.

相形之下，中脑有一个区域叫做黑质，黑质神经元负责运动设计启动以及其他运动功能。

The higher the blood pressure is, the more frequently they send action potentials to the midbrain informing it just how much pressure the artery is feeling.

The brainstem actually has three main components — and I know this is getting to be a lot of vocabulary here — you have the midbrain, the pons, and the medulla oblongata.

脑干实际上由三个主要部分组成——我知道这已经有很多词汇了——你有中脑，脑桥和延髓。

We usually refer to the substantia nigra as if it's in a single location, but there are actually two of these regions in the brain, one on each side of the midbrain.

“黑质”听起来像是指某个具体位置，但实际上是指大脑中两个区域，分别位于中脑两侧。

Once your brain receives sensory information, it sends a motor signal down the upper motor neurons through the corticospinal tract in the midbrain, and cross to the opposite side at the medulla before continuing down the spinal cord.

当大脑接收到感觉信息时，它通过中脑皮质脊髓束向上运动神经元发送运动信号，先交叉至对侧延髓，然后继续下行。
