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.

Dispositional empathy predicts primary somatosensory cortex activity while receiving touch by a hand

Scientific Reports, 2021
Previous research revealed an active network of brain areas such as insula and anterior cingulate cortex when witnessing somebody else in pain and feeling empathy.

Ethosuximide Affects Paired-Pulse Facilitation in Somatosensory Cortex of WAG\Rij Rats as a Model of Absence Seizure [PDF]

Advanced Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2015
Purpose: The interaction between somatosensory cortex and thalamus via a thalamocortical loop is a theory behind induction of absence epilepsy. Inside peri-oral somatosensory (S1po) and primary somatosensory forelimb (S1fl) regions, excitatory and ...

Relationship between the Somatosensory Cortex Morphology, Cutaneous Allodynia, and Clinical Features of Patients with Migraine

Applied Sciences, 2021
Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of brain alterations in patients with migraine. Functional and vascular changes in the brain are related to the presence and severity of cutaneous allodynia.

Fingolimod increases parvalbumin-positive neurons in adult mice

IBRO Neuroscience Reports, 2022
In recent years, it has been shown that central nervous system agents, such as antidepressants and antiepileptic drugs, reopen a critical period in mature animals.

Functional Connectivity Evoked by Orofacial Tactile Perception of Velocity

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
The cortical representations of orofacial pneumotactile stimulation involve complex neuronal networks, which are still unknown. This study aims to identify the characteristics of functional connectivity (FC) evoked by three different saltatory velocities

Gamma oscillations in somatosensory cortex recruit prefrontal and descending serotonergic pathways in aversion and nociception

Nature Communications, 2019
In humans, gamma-band oscillations in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) correlate with subjective pain perception. However, functional contributions to pain and the nature of underlying circuits are unclear.

The somatosensory cortex receives information about motor output

Science Advances, 2019
The somatosensory cortex receives information on motor output before getting sensory feedback signals during voluntary movement. During voluntary movement, the somatosensory system not only passively receives signals from the external world but also ...
