The magnocellular red nucleus (mRN or mNR or RNm) is located in the rostral midbrain and is involved in motor coordination.[1][2] Together with the parvocellular red nucleus, the mRN makes up the red nucleus.[2] Due to the role it plays in motor coordination, the magnocellular red nucleus may be implicated in the characteristic symptom of restless legs syndrome (RLS).[3] The mRN receives most of its signals from the motor cortex and the cerebellum.[4][5]
