Transcranial focused ultrasound neuromodulation of the human primary motor cortex

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Transcranial focused ultrasound is an emerging form of non-invasive neuromodulation that uses acoustic energy to affect neuronal excitability. The effect of ultrasound on human motor cortical excitability and behavior is currently unknown.

State Variables of the Arm May Be Encoded by Single Neuron Activity in the Monkey Motor Cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Revealing the type of information encoded by neurons activity in the motor cortex is essential not only for understanding the mechanism of motion control but also for developing a brain-machine interface.

Cholecystokinin facilitates motor skill learning by modulating neuroplasticity in the motor cortex

open access: yeseLife
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is an essential modulator for neuroplasticity in sensory and emotional domains. Here, we investigated the role of CCK in motor learning using a single pellet reaching task in mice.

Prefrontal cortical thickness in motor neuron disease

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2018
Objective: To examine whether the distribution of prefrontal cortical thickness in patients with motor neuron disease is normal or bimodal and how it compares to the normal population.

Increased motor cortex excitability for concealed visual information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Deceptive behaviour involves complex neural processes involving the primary motor cortex. The dynamics of this motor cortex excitability prior to lying are still not well understood.

Exposure to Inorganic Mercury Causes Oxidative Stress, Cell Death, and Functional Deficits in the Motor Cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Mercury is a toxic metal that can be found in the environment in three different forms – elemental, organic and inorganic. Inorganic mercury has a lower liposolubility, which results in a lower organism absorption and reduced passage through the blood ...

Effects of lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation on expression of growth-associated genes by corticospinal neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: Inflammation around cell bodies of primary sensory neurons and retinal ganglion cells enhances expression of neuronal growth-associated genes and stimulates axonal regeneration.

Modified constraint-induced movement therapy enhances cortical plasticity in a rat model of traumatic brain injury: a resting-state functional MRI study

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2023
Modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT) has shown beneficial effects on motor function improvement after brain injury, but the exact mechanism remains unclear.

Motor Cortex Stimulation for pain relief : do corollary discharges play a role? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Both invasive and non-invasive motor cortex stimulation techniques have been successfully employed in the treatment of chronic pain, but the precise mechanism of action of such treatments is not fully understood.

Reorganization between preparatory and movement population responses in motor cortex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Neural populations can change the computation they perform on very short timescales. Although such flexibility is common, the underlying computational strategies at the population level remain unknown.
