"origin: posterior border of the hard palate and the posterior nasal spine of the horizontal plate of the palatine bone"
"insertion: palatine aponeurosis and mucosa of the uvula"
"action: alters the shape of the uvula by shortening it"
"innervation: vagus nerve via the pharyngeal plexus (with sensory innervation of the uvula mucosa innervated by the lesser palatine nerve (from cranial nerve Vb) via the pterygopalatine ganglion)"
