Corticospinal Modulation of Precision Movements
Recently we demonstrated a critical role for temporal coding of corticospinal activity in a prehension movement requiring precise forelimb control.

Brain White Matter Fiber Bundle Alterations and Severity of Depression in Patients with Post-stroke Depression [PDF]
BackgroundPost-stroke depression (PSD) , a common complication in stroke patients, may increase the disability and mortality, however, its pathogenesis is unknown yet.ObjectiveTo observe the white matter fiber bundle alterations by diffusion tensor ...

The Corticospinal Tract in Huntington's Disease [PDF]
Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by progressive motor impairment. Therefore, the connectivity of the corticospinal tract (CST), which is the main white matter (WM) pathway that conducts motor impulses from the primary motor cortex to the spinal cord, merits particular attention.

Corticospinal excitability and conductivity are related to the anatomy of the corticospinal tract
Probing the brain structure-function relationship is at the heart of modern neuroscientific explorations, enabled by recent advances in brain mapping techniques. This study aimed to explore the anatomical blueprint of corticospinal excitability and shed light on the structure-function relationship within the human motor system. Using diffusion magnetic

Can repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation enhance motor outcomes in cerebral infarct patients? [PDF]
The effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the post-stroke motor recovery is not apparent. To perform an accurate evaluation, we adjusted for critical factors that determine motor outcomes, including lesion location and the ...

Impaired transmission in the corticospinal tract and gait disability in spinal cord injured persons [PDF]
Rehabilitation following spinal cord injury is likely to depend on recovery of corticospinal systems. Here we investigate whether transmission in the corticospinal tract may explain foot drop (inability to dorsiflex ankle) in persons with spinal cord ...

Functional repair of the corticospinal tract by delayed transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells in adult rats [PDF]
Adult rats were trained to use their forepaws to retrieve a piece of food. Destruction of the dorsal corticospinal tract on one side at the level of the first cervical segment abolished the use of the ipsilateral forepaw for retrieval for at least 6 ...

Single collateral reconstructions reveal distinct phases of corticospinal remodeling after spinal cord injury. [PDF]
Injuries to the spinal cord often result in severe functional deficits that, in case of incomplete injuries, can be partially compensated by axonal remodeling.
