The organization and connections of somatosensory cortex in marmosets [PDF]
Microelectrode mapping methods were used to define and describe 3 representations of the body surface in somatosensory cortex of marmosets: S-I proper or area 3b of anterior parietal cortex, S-II, and the parietal ventral area (PV) of the upper bank of the lateral sulcus.

Mapping of the Somatosensory Cortex [PDF]
Intraoperative sensory cortical mapping is a reliable and safe method for the functional localization of the central sulcus (CS). It is utilized during neurosurgical procedures performed near eloquent brain tissue. It helps in identifying the somatosensory cortex and CS, hence preventing any postoperative neurological deficits.

Tickle contagion in the rat somatosensory cortex
The cellular mechanisms of emotional contagion are unknown. We investigated tickle contagion and the underlying neuronal representations in playful rats. We recorded trunk somatosensory cortex activity of observer rats while they received tickling and audiovisual playback of tickling footage and while they witnessed tickling of demonstrator rats ...

Tickle contagion in the somatosensory cortex [PDF]
AbstractThe cellular mechanisms of emotional contagion are unknown. We investigated tickle contagion and the underlying neuronal representations in rats. We recorded trunk somatosensory cortex activity of observer rats while they received tickling, audio-visual playback of tickling footage, and while they witnessed tickling of demonstrator rats ...

Seasonal plasticity in the adult somatosensory cortex [PDF]
Significance To survive, animals need to adapt to changes of their ecosystem by changing their behaviors or even morphing the organs responsible for generating these behaviors. Small mammals have a high metabolic rate, and to balance energy deficits during winter they can decrease their brain and body size, a phenomenon termed Dehnel’s effect.

Inhibitory synaptogenesis in mouse somatosensory cortex [PDF]
It is widely believed that inhibitory synapses are not present or present in only small numbers in the rodent cerebral cortex during the early postnatal period when the cortex is being innervated by thalamocortical fibers. Quantitative electron microscopy was carried out on the posteromedial barrel subfield of mouse somatosensory cortex from postnatal ...

Normalization in human somatosensory cortex
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to measure activity in human somatosensory cortex and to test for cross-digit suppression. Subjects received stimulation (vibration of varying amplitudes) to the right thumb (target) with or without concurrent stimulation of the right middle finger (mask).

Thickening in the somatosensory cortex of patients with migraine [PDF]
To examine morphologic changes in the somatosensory cortex (SSC) of patients with migraine.Cortical thickness of the SSC of patients with migraine was measured in vivo and compared with age- and sex-matched healthy subjects. The cohort was composed of 24 patients with migraine, subdivided into 12 patients who had migraine with aura, 12 patients who had

Role of Somatosensory Cortex in Visuospatial Attention [PDF]
The human somatosensory cortex (S1) is not among the brain areas usually associated with visuospatial attention. However, such a function can be presumed, given the recently identified eye proprioceptive input to S1 and the established links between gaze and attention.
