User:Jhelbing/Magnocellular red nucleus

The red nucleus (RN), a group of neurons composed of the parvocellular red nucleus (pRN) and the magnocellular red nucleus (mRN), contributes to movement and motor control within the forelimb. The pRN is located in the diencephalon, a division of the forebrain, and the mRN is located in the mesencephalon (midbrain). The RN is capable of projection onto the spinal cord interneurons and motor neurons of signals integrated from the motor cortex and cerebellum.
