Motor cortex and gait in mild cognitive impairment: a magnetic resonance spectroscopy and volumetric imaging study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Gait disorders are common in the course of dementia, even at the stage of mild cognitive impairment, owing to probable changes in higher levels of motor control. Since motor control message is ultimately supported in the brain by the primary motor cortex

Conversion of Sensory Signals into Motor Commands in Primary Motor Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 1998
Movement triggered by sensory stimuli requires that the networks generating the motor commands receive an adequate driving input, which, in general, is a transformed version of the initial sensory signal. We investigated the nature of this transformation in a task in which monkeys categorize the speed of tactile stimuli as either low or high, reaching ...

Multi‐omics and low‐input proteomics profiling reveals dynamic regulation driving pluripotency initiation in early mouse embryos

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Mouse pre‐implantation development involves a transition from totipotency to pluripotency. Integrating transcriptomics, epigenetic profiling, low‐input proteomics and functional assays, we show that eight‐cell embryos retain residual totipotency features, whereas cytoskeletal remodeling regulated by the ubiquitin‐proteasome system drives progression ...

Dual-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over primary motor cortex does not affect movement selection.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Volition and sense of agency are two primary components of a voluntary or internally generated movement. It has been shown that movement selection cannot be altered without interfering with the sense of volition using single pulse transcranial magnetic ...

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

fNIRS Study of Brain Activation during Multiple Motor Control Conditions in Younger and Older Adults

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience
Background: Evidence suggests that aging contributes to decreased cerebral blood flow and brain oxyhemoglobin (HbO2) in the association cortices during rest.

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

Cortical Mirror-System Activation During Real-Life Game Playing: An Intracranial Electroencephalography (EEG) Study

open access: yes, 2018
Analogous to the mirror neuron system repeatedly described in monkeys as a possible substrate for imitation learning and/or action understanding, a neuronal execution/observation matching system (OEMS) is assumed in humans, but little is known to what ...

Temporal Evolution of Both Premotor and Motor Cortical Tuning Properties Reflect Changes in Limb Biomechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A prevailing theory in the cortical control of limb movement posits that premotor cortex initiates a high-level motor plan that is transformed by the primary motor cortex (MI) into a low-level motor command to be executed.

Fluid and Neuroimaging Biomarkers in Microgliopathy Colony‐Stimulating Factor‐1 Receptor‐Related Disorders

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aims to identify both fluid and neuroimaging biomarkers for CSF1R‐RD that can inform the optimal timing of treatment administration to maximize therapeutic benefit, while also providing sensitive quantitative measurements to monitor disease progression.
