@@Home -> BiologicalLifeResearch -> BrainAreaLLC -> BrainRegionLLC_MM_RD_MG


This page covers biological details of component Magnocellular Part of Red Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

  • Top-down path to region: Midbrain Mesencephalon -> Red Nucleus (LLC.MM.RD) -> Magnocellular Part of Red Nucleus (LLC.MM.RD.MG) (see Mind Maps)
  • Type: nucleus
  • Quality: L0
  • Brain area: Lower Brain - Locomotion Control Area (LLC)
  • Area circuit: Spinocerebellar Locomotion (LLS)
  • Role: subcortical.motor.flexor
  • Function: Automatic limbs control by projection to spinal cord L6 interneurons
  • Notes to function:
    • excite flexors, inhibit extensors
    • limb control, primarily upper limbs, but no control of fingers
    • 150–200 giant or large-sized neurons in humans
    • facilitating flexor alpha motor neurons and inhibiting extensor alpha motor neurons
