Deciphering the neural signature of human cardiovascular regulation

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Cardiovascular regulation is integral to life. Animal studies have identified both neural and endocrine pathways, by which the central nervous system adjusts cardiac output and peripheral vascular resistance to changing physiological demands. The outflow

Heartbeat and Somatosensory Perception [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2020
AbstractOur perception of the external world is influenced by internal bodily signals. For example, we recently showed that timing of stimulation along the cardiac cycle and spontaneous fluctuations of heartbeat-evoked potential (HEP) amplitudes influence somatosensory perception and the associated neural processing (Al et al., 2020).

Somatosensory prior entry [PDF]

open access: yesAttention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2009
The perceived timing of sensory events does not necessarily match the actual timing. In the present study, we investigated the effect of location of attention on the perceived timing of somatosensory stimuli. Participants judged the temporal order of two taps, delivered one to each hand, with taps presented at different elevations (upper and lower) on ...

Imaging Real-Time Tactile Interaction With Two-Person Dual-Coil fMRI

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2020
Studies of brain mechanisms supporting social interaction are demanding because real interaction only occurs when persons are in contact. Instead, most brain imaging studies scan subjects individually.

Neural excitability and sensory input determine intensity perception with opposing directions in initial cortical responses

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Perception of sensory information is determined by stimulus features (e.g., intensity) and instantaneous neural states (e.g., excitability). Commonly, it is assumed that both are reflected similarly in evoked brain potentials, that is, larger amplitudes ...

Myotubularin related protein-2 and its phospholipid substrate PIP2 control Piezo2-mediated mechanotransduction in peripheral sensory neurons

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Piezo2 ion channels are critical determinants of the sense of light touch in vertebrates. Yet, their regulation is only incompletely understood. We recently identified myotubularin related protein-2 (Mtmr2), a phosphoinositide (PI) phosphatase, in the ...

The brain-body disconnect: A somatic sensory basis for trauma-related disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Although the manifestation of trauma in the body is a phenomenon well-endorsed by clinicians and traumatized individuals, the neurobiological underpinnings of this manifestation remain unclear.

Contrasting action and posture coding with hierarchical deep neural network models of proprioception

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Biological motor control is versatile, efficient, and depends on proprioceptive feedback. Muscles are flexible and undergo continuous changes, requiring distributed adaptive control mechanisms that continuously account for the body’s state. The canonical

Mammalian somatosensory mechanotransduction [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2009
In the mammalian somatosensory system, mechanosensitive neurons mediate the senses of touch and pain. Among sensory modalities, mechanosensation has been the most elusive with regard to the identification of transduction molecules. One factor that has hindered the identification of transduction molecules is the diversity of neurons; physiological ...

A new perceptual paradigm to investigate the visual remapping of others’ tactile sensations onto one’s own body shows "mirror touch" for the hands

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
The last two decades have seen a multitude of publications showing the activation of an observer's somatosensory cortical system during the observation of touch on another person.
