Somatosensory tinnitus: current evidence and future perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In some individuals, tinnitus can be modulated by specific maneuvers of the temporomandibular joint, head and neck, eyes, and limbs. Neuroplasticity seems to play a central role in this capacity for modulation, suggesting that abnormal interactions ...

Somatosensory scaffolding structures [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012
Dynamic changes in somatosensory perception occur as a result of multiple signaling events. In many instances, over-activation of sensory receptors results in the desensitization and subsequent increased threshold for activation of receptors. In other cases, receptor sensitization can occur following tissue injury and/or inflammation.

Spexin in the European sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax: Characterization, brain distribution, and interaction with Gnrh and Gnih neurons

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 2, Page 314-335, February 2023., 2023
The main objective of this work was to obtain detailed information on the distribution and localization of the spexin (Spx) system in the sea bass brain. To this purpose, we first identified and characterized the spx1 gene and analyzed its expression in the central nervous system (CNS) of the European sea bass by using quantitative Real‐Time Polymerase

A Trade-Off between Somatosensory and Auditory Related Brain Activity during Object Naming But Not Reading. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The parietal operculum, particularly the cytoarchitectonic area OP1 of the secondary somatosensory area (SII), is involved in somatosensory feedback. Using fMRI with 58 human subjects, we investigated task-dependent differences in SII/OP1 activity during

From hand to brain and back: Grip forces deliver insight into the functional plasticity of somatosensory processes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 1st IFSA Winter Conference on Automation, Robotics, and Communications for Industry 4.0, 2021, Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, France, 2021
The human somatosensory cortex is intimately linked to other central brain functions such as vision, audition, mechanoreception, and motor planning and control. These links are established through brain learning, and display a considerable functional plasticity.

Cortical synapses of the world's smallest mammal: An FIB/SEM study in the Etruscan shrew

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 3, Page 390-414, February 2023., 2023
The present work provides a quantitative dataset of synapses from the Etruscan shrew (the smallest known terrestrial mammal). We have identified common and differing principles of synaptic organization compared to other mammalian species. Abstract The main aim of the present study was to determine if synapses from the exceptionally small brain of the ...

Review: Do the Different Sensory Areas within the Cat Anterior Ectosylvian Sulcal Cortex Collectively Represent a Network Multisensory Hub? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Current theory supports that the numerous functional areas of the cerebral cortex are organized and function as a network. Using connectional databases and computational approaches, the cerebral network has been demonstrated to exhibit a hierarchical ...

Mammalian somatosensory mechanotransduction [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2009
In the mammalian somatosensory system, mechanosensitive neurons mediate the senses of touch and pain. Among sensory modalities, mechanosensation has been the most elusive with regard to the identification of transduction molecules. One factor that has hindered the identification of transduction molecules is the diversity of neurons; physiological ...

Eph and ephrin signaling in the development of the central auditory system

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 10-26, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Acoustic communication relies crucially on accurate interpretation of information about the intensity, frequency, timing, and location of diverse sound stimuli in the environment. To meet this demand, neurons along different levels of the auditory system form precisely organized neural circuits.
