Iron overload in the motor cortex induces neuronal ferroptosis following spinal cord injury

Redox Biology, 2021
Motor neuron death is supposed to result in primary motor cortex atrophy after spinal cord injury (SCI), which is relevant to poorer motor recovery for patients with SCI. However, the exact mechanisms of motor neuron death remain elusive.

Neuronal Plasticity and Age-Related Functional Decline in the Motor Cortex

Cells, 2023
Physiological aging causes a decline of motor function due to impairment of motor cortex function, losses of motor neurons and neuromuscular junctions, sarcopenia, and frailty.

Illusory sensation of movement induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Human movement sense relies on both somatosensory feedback and on knowledge of the motor commands used to produce the movement. We have induced a movement illusion using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over primary motor cortex and dorsal ...

Disrupting the experience of control in the human brain: pre-supplementary motor area contributes to the sense of agency [PDF]

, 2010
The feeling of controlling events through one's actions is fundamental to human experience, but its neural basis remains unclear. This 'sense of agency' (SoA) can be measured quantitatively as a temporal linkage between voluntary actions and their ...

Optogenetic Neuronal Stimulation Promotes Functional Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Although spinal cord injury (SCI) is the main cause of disability worldwide, there is still no definite and effective treatment method for this condition.

Altered Rolandic gamma-band activation associated with motor impairment and ictal network desynchronization in childhood epilepsy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Epilepsy is associated with an abnormal expression of neural oscillations and their synchronization across brain regions. Oscillatory brain activation and synchronization also play an important role in cognition, perception and motor control.

Causal relationships between brain and spinal motor neuron excitability during motor imagery: Using NIRS and evoked electromyogram study

NeuroImage: Reports, 2022
In this study, we elucidated the neural basis of motor imagery by using a powerful statistical method in addition to simultaneous brain and spinal measurements using NIRS and evoked electromyogram.

Cerebellum to motor cortex paired associative stimulation induces bidirectional STDP-like plasticity in human motor cortex [PDF]

, 2012
The cerebellum is crucially important for motor control and adaptation. Recent non-invasive brain stimulation studies have indicated the possibility to alter the excitability of the cerebellum and its projections to the contralateral motor cortex, with ...

Robot-assisted image-guided transcranial magnetic stimulation for somatotopic mapping of the motor cortex: a clinical pilot study. [PDF]

, 2009
Shape and exact location of motor cortical areas varies among individuals. The exact knowledge of these locations is crucial for planning of neurosurgical procedures.
