GABA Concentration in the Left Ventral Premotor Cortex Associates With Sensory Hyper-Responsiveness in Autism Spectrum Disorders Without Intellectual Disability

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often exhibit abnormal processing of sensory inputs from multiple modalities and higher-order cognitive/behavioral response to those inputs.

People with higher autistic traits show stronger binding for color–shape associations

Scientific Reports, 2023
Non-synesthetes exhibit a tendency to associate specific shapes with particular colors (i.e., circle–red, triangle–yellow, and square–blue). Such color–shape associations (CSAs) could potentially affect the feature binding of colors and shapes, thus ...

Mechanical Regulation Underlies Effects of Exercise on Serotonin-Induced Signaling in the Prefrontal Cortex Neurons

iScience, 2020
Summary: Mechanical forces are known to be involved in various biological processes. However, it remains unclear whether brain functions are mechanically regulated under physiological conditions.

The basal ganglia mediate the inter-hemispheric transfer of complex tool-use skill

iScience
Summary: Motor skills learned in one hand generalize to the other hand via plastic changes in motor systems. Such “intermanual transfer” may arise during complex tool-use learning, but its neural underpinnings remain unknown. Using resting-state fMRI, we

Early escitalopram administration as a preemptive treatment strategy against spasticity after contusive spinal cord injury in rats

Scientific Reports, 2021
In the majority of spinal cord injury (SCI) patients, spasticity develops in the subacute phase and chronically persists with muscle hypertonia. Among various pathological conditions underlying spasticity, upregulated expression of 5-HT receptors (5-HTR)

Operation of a P300-based brain-computer interface in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Scientific Reports, 2018
A brain-computer interface (BCI) or brain-machine interface is a technology that enables the control of a computer and other external devices using signals from the brain. This technology has been tested in paralysed patients, such as those with cervical

Mini-max feedback control as a computational theory of sensorimotor control in the presence of structural uncertainty

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2014
We propose a mini-max feedback control (MMFC) model as a robust approach to human motor control under conditions of uncertain dynamics, such as structural uncertainty. The MMFC model is an expansion of the optimal feedback control (OFC) model.
