Tickle contagion in the somatosensory cortex [PDF]
, 2021 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 ...

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 ...

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.

From anatomy to function: the role of the somatosensory cortex in emotional regulation
Brazilian Journal of Psychiatry, 2018 Since the pioneering work of Penfield and his colleagues in the 1930s, the somatosensory cortex, which is located on the postcentral gyrus, has been known for its central role in processing sensory information from various parts of the body.

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

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 2, Page 314-335, February 2023., 2023 The main objective of this work was to obtain detailed information on the distribution and localization of the spexin (Spx) system in the sea bass brain. To this purpose, we first identified and characterized the spx1 gene and analyzed its expression in the central nervous system (CNS) of the European sea bass by using quantitative Real‐Time Polymerase
