Parallel modulation of intracortical excitability of somatosensory and visual cortex by the gonadal hormones estradiol and progesterone

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
The levels of the gonadal hormones estradiol and progesterone vary throughout the menstrual cycle thereby affecting cognition, emotion, mood, and social behaviour.

Noninvasive vagus nerve stimulation alters neural response and physiological autonomic tone to noxious thermal challenge. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The mechanisms by which noninvasive vagal nerve stimulation (nVNS) affect central and peripheral neural circuits that subserve pain and autonomic physiology are not clear, and thus remain an area of intense investigation.

A Replicable and Generalizable Neuroimaging‐Based Indicator of Pain Sensitivity Across Individuals

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Humans differ in their sensitivity to pain. With six large and diverse fMRI datasets (total N = 1046), this study finds that such individual differences in pain sensitivity can be tracked by fMRI responses to painful stimuli. A highly generalizable machine learning model is further built to predict pain sensitivity across all datasets and analgesic ...

Motor and Somatosensory Evoked Potential Monitoring Without Wakeup Test during Scoliosis Surgery

open access: yesJournal of Rawalpindi Medical College, 2019
Background: Available evidence suggests that Transcranial electric motor evoked potentials and somatosensory evoked potential are safe methods to check the integrity of the spinal cord during spine deformity correction surgery. We compare the efficacy of

Large-scale changes in cortical dynamics triggered by repetitive somatosensory electrical stimulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundRepetitive somatosensory electrical stimulation (SES) of forelimb peripheral nerves is a promising therapy; studies have shown that SES can improve motor function in stroke subjects with chronic deficits.

Brain rhythms of pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Pain is an integrative phenomenon that results from dynamic interactions between sensory and contextual (i.e., cognitive, emotional, and motivational) processes.

Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Play an Analgesic Role Through a Npy2r Sensory Neuron‐Mediated Lung‐to‐Brain Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are considered a promising alternative for neuropathic pain (NP) treatment, but underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Huang et al. illustrate that a Npy2r sensory neuron‐related lung–brain axis contributes to MSC analgesia.

PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.
