Nociceptive neuropeptide increases and periorbital allodynia in a model of traumatic brain injury. [PDF]

, 2012
OBJECTIVE: This study tests the hypothesis that injury to the somatosensory cortex is associated with periorbital allodynia and increases in nociceptive neuropeptides in the brainstem in a mouse model of controlled cortical impact (CCI) injury.

Invariant Neuromorphic Representations of Tactile Stimuli Improve Robustness of a Real‐Time Texture Classification System

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a method to create neuron‐like (neuromorphic) spiking representations of texture that are invariant to the scanning speed and contact force applied in the tactile sensing process. In offline and real‐time experiments, these representations improve classification accuracy, computational efficiency, and the ability to identify textures

The pain matrix reloaded: a salience detection system for the body [PDF]

, 2011
Neuroimaging and neurophysiological studies have shown that nociceptive stimuli elia salience detection system for the bodycit responses in an extensive cortical network including somatosensory, insular and cingulate areas, as well as frontal and ...

Evolution of somatosensory and motor cortex in primates [PDF]

The Anatomical Record Part A: Discoveries in Molecular, Cellular, and Evolutionary Biology, 2004
AbstractInferences about how the complex somatosensory systems of anthropoid primates evolved are based on comparative studies of such systems in extant mammals. Experimental studies of members of the major clades of extant mammals suggest that somatosensory cortex of early mammals consisted of only a few areas, including a primary area, S1, bordered ...

Experimental muscle hyperalgesia modulates sensorimotor cortical excitability, which is partially altered by unaccustomed exercise [PDF]

, 2018
Impaired corticomotor function is reported in patients with lateral epicondylalgia, but the causal link to pain or musculotendinous overloading is unclear.

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Clinical and anatomical characteristics of basal temporal seizures: A systematic review

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract This review aimed to characterize the clinical semiology and anatomical correlates of seizures originating in the basal temporal region, an underrecognized epilepsy subtype, and to identify features that distinguish it from other forms of temporal lobe epilepsies (TLE).

Co‐occurrence of childhood absence epilepsy and self‐limited focal epilepsy interictal discharges: Differences from childhood absence epilepsy alone

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Some children with Childhood Absence Epilepsy (CAE) exhibit focal abnormalities similar to those observed in Self‐Limited Focal Epilepsies of Childhood (SeLFEs). It remains unclear whether this subgroup of patients may present distinct clinical characteristics or prognoses compared to those with CAE and generalized discharges alone ...

The Body Model Theory of Somatosensory Cortex [PDF]

Neuron, 2017
I outline a microcircuit theory of somatosensory cortex as a body model serving both for body representation and "body simulation." A modular model of innervated and non-innervated body parts resides in somatosensory cortical layer 4. This body model is continuously updated and compares to an avatar (an animatable puppet) rather than a mere sensory map.
