The reactivation of somatosensory cortex and behavioral recovery after sensory loss in mature primates

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014
In our experiments, we removed a major source of activation of somatosensory cortex in mature monkeys by unilaterally sectioning the sensory afferents in the dorsal columns of the spinal cord at a high cervical level.

Fine-grained nociceptive maps in primary somatosensory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Topographic maps of the receptive surface are a fundamental feature of neural organization in many sensory systems. While touch is finely mapped in the cerebral cortex, it remains controversial how precise any cortical nociceptive map may be.

Ageing of the somatosensory system at the periphery: age‐related changes in cutaneous mechanoreceptors

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, 2019
Decline of tactile sensation associated with ageing depends on modifications in skin and both central and peripheral nervous systems. At present, age‐related changes in the periphery of the somatosensory system, particularly concerning the effects on ...

Somatosensory tinnitus: current evidence and future perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In some individuals, tinnitus can be modulated by specific maneuvers of the temporomandibular joint, head and neck, eyes, and limbs. Neuroplasticity seems to play a central role in this capacity for modulation, suggesting that abnormal interactions ...

Etiology of phantom limb syndrome: Insights from a 3D default space consciousness model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this article, we examine phantom limb syndrome to gain insights into how the brain functions as the mind and how consciousness arises. We further explore our previously proposed consciousness model in which consciousness and body schema arise when ...

Review: Do the Different Sensory Areas within the Cat Anterior Ectosylvian Sulcal Cortex Collectively Represent a Network Multisensory Hub? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Current theory supports that the numerous functional areas of the cerebral cortex are organized and function as a network. Using connectional databases and computational approaches, the cerebral network has been demonstrated to exhibit a hierarchical ...

Development of human somatosensory cortical functions – what have we learned from magnetoencephalography: A review

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
The mysteries of early development of cortical processing in humans have started to unravel with the help of new noninvasive brain research tools like multichannel magnetoencephalography (MEG).

Articulating: the neural mechanisms of speech production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Speech production is a highly complex sensorimotor task involving tightly coordinated processing across large expanses of the cerebral cortex. Historically, the study of the neural underpinnings of speech suffered from the lack of an animal model.
