Tickle contagion in the rat somatosensory cortex. [PDF]
iScience, 2022 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 ...

Mapping of the Somatosensory Cortex [PDF]
Cureus, 2020 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.

Separate areas for mirror responses and agency within the parietal operculum [PDF]
, 2008 There is common neural activity in parietal and premotor cortex when executing and observing goal-directed movements: the “mirror” response. In addition, active and passive limb movements cause overlapping activity in premotor and somatosensory cortex ...

Seasonal plasticity in the adult somatosensory cortex [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 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.

Eye position representation in human anterior parietal cortex [PDF]
, 2008 Eye position helps locate visual targets relative to one's own body and modulates the distribution of attention in visual space. Whereas in the monkey, proprioceptive eye position signals have been recorded in the somatosensory cortex, in humans, no ...

Origins of choice-related activity in mouse somatosensory cortex. [PDF]
, 2015 During perceptual decisions about faint or ambiguous sensory stimuli, even identical stimuli can produce different choices. Spike trains from sensory cortex neurons can predict trial-to-trial variability in choice.

The topology of connections between rat prefrontal, motor and sensory cortices [PDF]
, 2014 The connections of prefrontal cortex (PFC) were investigated in the rat brain to determine the order and location of input and output connections to motor and somatosensory cortex.

Passive exercise of the hind limbs after complete thoracic transection of the spinal cord promotes cortical reorganization. [PDF]
, 2013 Physical exercise promotes neural plasticity in the brain of healthy subjects and modulates pathophysiological neural plasticity after sensorimotor loss, but the mechanisms of this action are not fully understood.
