Patterns of myeloarchitecture in lower limb amputees: an MRI study
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 Functional studies of cortical plasticity in humans suggest that the motor cortex reorganizes when the descending motor output pathway is disrupted as a result of limb amputation.

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Role of the motor cortex in the generation of classically conditioned eyelid and vibrissae responses
Scientific Reports, 2021 The eyelid motor system has been used for years as an experimental model for studying the neuronal mechanisms underlying motor and cognitive learning, mainly with classical conditioning procedures. Nonetheless, it is not known yet which brain structures,

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Decoding Brain Motor Imagery with various Machine Learning techniques [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Motor imagery (MI) is a well-documented technique used by subjects in BCI (Brain Computer Interface) experiments to modulate brain activity within the motor cortex and surrounding areas of the brain. In our term project, we conducted an experiment in which the subjects were instructed to perform motor imagery that would be divided into two classes ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Cerebral organoids were employed as a novel model to explore the neurotoxicity of soman. Soman inhibited acetylcholinesterase activity, increased cell apoptosis and upregulated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress markers glucose‐regulated protein 78 (GRP78), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP).

Motor cortex causally contributes to auditory word recognition following sensorimotor-enriched vocabulary training [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The role of the motor cortex in perceptual and cognitive functions is highly controversial. Here, we investigated the hypothesis that the motor cortex can be instrumental for translating foreign language vocabulary. Participants were trained on foreign language (L2) words and their native language translations over four consecutive days.

Self-configuring feedback loops for sensorimotor control [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 How dynamic interactions between nervous system regions in mammals performs online motor control remains an unsolved problem. In this paper we show that feedback control is a simple, yet powerful way to understand the neural dynamics of sensorimotor control.
