Neuronal Correlates of Tactile Working Memory in Prefrontal and Vibrissal Somatosensory Cortex
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Tactile working memory engages a broad network of cortical regions in primates. To assess whether the conclusions drawn from primates apply to rodents, we examined the vibrissal primary somatosensory cortex (vS1) and the prelimbic cortex (PL) in

Postnatal expression of Cat-315-positive perineuronal nets in the SAMP10 mouse primary somatosensory cortex [PDF]
IBRO Neuroscience ReportsPerineuronal nets (PNNs) form at the end of the critical period of plasticity in the mouse primary somatosensory cortex. PNNs are said to have functions that control neuroplasticity and provide neuroprotection. However, it is not clear which molecules in

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.

Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2023 Background: Somatosensory deficits are common symptoms post stroke. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the motor cortex is able to promote motor rehabilitation, whereby its impact on somatosensory functioning remains unknown.

Subjective somatosensory experiences disclosed by focused attention: cortical-hippocampal-insular and amygdala contributions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 In order to explore the neurobiological foundations of qualitative subjective experiences, the present study was designed to correlate objective third-person brain fMRI measures with subjective first-person identification and scaling of local, subtle ...

Convergence across tactile afferent types in primary and secondary somatosensory cortices. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Integration of information by convergence of inputs onto sensory cortical neurons is a requisite for processing higher-order stimulus features. Convergence across defined peripheral input classes has generally been thought to occur at levels beyond the ...

Cortical maps of somatosensory perception in human
NeuroImage, 2023 Tactile and movement-related somatosensory perceptions are crucial for our daily lives and survival. Although the primary somatosensory cortex is thought to be the key structure of somatosensory perception, various cortical downstream areas are also ...

Attenuation of sensory processing in the primary somatosensory cortex during rubber hand illusion
Scientific Reports, 2021 The neural representation of the body is easily altered by the integration of multiple sensory signals in the brain. The “rubber hand illusion” (RHI) is one of the most popular experimental paradigms to investigate this phenomenon.

Somatosensory prediction in the premature neonate brain
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2022 Sensory prediction (SP) is at the core of early cognitive development. Impaired SP may be a key to understanding the emergence of neurodevelopmental disorders, however there is little data on how and when this skill emerges.
