TrpM8‐mediated somatosensation in mouse neocortex [PDF]
AbstractSomatosensation is a complex sense mediated by more than a dozen distinct neural subtypes in the periphery. Although pressure and touch sensation have been mapped to primary somatosensory cortex in rodents, it has been controversial whether pain and temperature inputs are also directed to this area.

AbstractThis chapter discusses five principles for how sensorimotor behaviors are learned and performed by rats, based on new findings from neuroscience. It focuses on nonvibrissal somatosensory processing but also considers examples from the whisker-tactile system or from other sensory modalities.

Somatosensation and the sense of self
Current BiologyOur own body is the constant accompaniment of our waking mental life, and the seat of all our sensory experience and responses. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the body is a key component in individual self-consciousness, in addition to other, psychological components such as autobiographical memory and explicit self-construal.

Under normal circumstances, the somatosensory system contributes more to shaping movements than to perception. Yet damage to the somatosensory system can result in spontaneous pain and other abnormal somatic perceptions. An exploration of the mechanisms and pathways involved in touch perception is slanted toward understanding the contribution of the ...

Impaired somatosensation in tongue mucosa of smokers
Clinical Oral Investigations, 2010Smoking has been indicated as a risk factor for oral diseases and can lead to altered sense of taste. So far, the effects of sensory changes on the tongue are not investigated. In this study, quantitative sensory testing was used to evaluate somatosensory function in the lingual region.

Evoked Response Audiometry: Influence of Somatosensation
International Journal of Audiology, 1972Averaged vertex response thresholds evoked with the oscillator on the mastoid process and tibia in patients deaf since birth or early childhood, patients with sensorineural hearing loss acquired during adulthood, and subjects with normal hearing were compared and the following conclusions were reached:(1) This study provided the first objective ...

The role of taste and oral somatosensation in olfactory localization
Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2011Although there is only one set of olfactory receptors, odours are experienced as smells when sniffing things (e.g., sniffing a wine's bouquet) and as flavours when the olfactory stimulus is present in the mouth (e.g., drinking wine). How this location binding—external versus internal environment—is achieved is poorly understood.

Contribution of Mechanosensitive Ion Channels to Somatosensation
2015Mechanotransduction, the conversion of a mechanical stimulus into an electrical signal, is a central mechanism to several physiological functions in mammals. It relies on the function of mechanosensitive ion channels (MSCs). Although the first single-channel recording from MSCs dates back to 30 years ago, the identity of the genes encoding MSCs has ...
