magnocellular part of the dentate nucleus
Acronym:
The term magnocellular part of the dentate nucleus refers to one of two subdivisions of the dentate nucleus of the cerebellar nuclei. While it contains small neurons as well (Voogd-1990 ), it is identified by its population of large neurons. It is found in the human ( Voogd-1990 ), the macaque ( Paxinos-2009a ), the rat ( Swanson-2004 ) and the mouse ( Franklin-2008 ). The other subdivision is the parvicellular part of the dentate nucleus.
