Brain Stimulation, 2020 Background: Neural oscillations reflect rapidly changing brain excitability states. We have demonstrated previously with EEG-triggered transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of human motor cortex that the positive vs. negative peak of the sensorimotor μ-

BMC Anesthesiology, 2022 Background Lots of studies have measured motor evoked potential (MEP) induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in anesthetized animals. However, in awake animals, the measurement of TMS-induced MEP is scarce as lack of sufficient restraint.

Viewing Instructions Accompanying Action Observation Modulate Corticospinal Excitability [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016 Action observation interventions may have the potential to contribute to improved motor function in motor (re)learning settings by promoting functional activity and plasticity in the motor regions of the brain. Optimal methods for delivering such interventions, however, have yet to be established.

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,

Exercise Performance and Corticospinal Excitability during Action Observation [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016 Observation of a model performing fast exercise improves simultaneous exercise performance; however, the precise mechanism underpinning this effect is unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the speed of the observed exercise influenced both upper body exercise performance and the activation of a cortical action observation ...

Corticospinal excitability during fatiguing whole body exercise [PDF]
, 2018 The corticospinal pathway is considered the primary conduit for voluntary motor control in humans. The efficacy of the corticospinal pathway to relay neural signals from higher brain areas to the locomotor muscle, i.e., corticospinal excitability, is subject to alterations during exercise. While the integrity of this motor pathway has historically been

Preconditioning of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation with transcranial direct current stimulation: evidence for homeostatic plasticity in the human motor cortex [PDF]
, 2004 Recent experimental work in animals has emphasized the importance of homeostatic plasticity as a means of stabilizing the properties of neuronal circuits. Here, we report a phenomenon that indicates a homeostatic pattern of cortical plasticity in healthy

Interlimb neural interactions in the corticospinal pathways
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2014 Corticospinal excitability is known to be modulated during voluntary muscle contraction of distal limbs. Although a large number of studies have demonstrated the variety of modulations in corticospinal excitability during distal limb movement, those ...
