Activity-Dependent Neurorehabilitation Beyond Physical Trainings: "Mental Exercise" Through Mirror Neuron Activation.
The activity dependent brain repair mechanism has been widely adopted in many types of neurorehabilitation. The activity leads to target specific and non-specific beneficial effects in different brain regions, such as the releasing of neurotrophic factors, modulation of the cytokines and generation of new neurons in adult hood. However physical exercise program clinically are limited to some of...
متن کاملFunctions of the mirror neuron system: implications for neurorehabilitation.
Mirror neurons discharge during the execution of hand object-directed actions and during the observation of the same actions performed by other individuals. These neurons were first identified in the ventral premotor cortex (area F5) and later on in the inferior parietal lobule of monkey brain, thus constituting the mirror neuron system. More recently, mirror neurons for mouth object-directed a...
متن کاملThe Effect of Physical Attractiveness on Mirror Neuron Activity
Research suggests that how a person looks can affect how much empathy they receive from others, with evidence pointing to attractive people receiving the most empathy. This study extended that research by examining if the heightened empathy received by more attractive people may be based in neurological processes. Participants (n = 19) were shown movie clips of young women of naturally-varying ...
متن کاملActing together in and beyond the mirror neuron system
Moving a set dinner table often takes two people, and doing so without spilling the glasses requires the close coordination of the two agents' actions. It has been argued that the mirror neuron system may be the key neural locus of such coordination. Instead, here we show that such coordination recruits two separable sets of areas: one that could translate between motor and visual codes and one...
متن کاملMirror Neuron Activation Priming in Novice Versus Expert Ballet Dancers
The mirror neuron system (MNS) includes a collection of neurons in the brain that respond to the performance and observation of similar motor actions. Exploration of this system has furthered the understanding and representation of learning through imitation, action understanding, motor system activation, empathy, and language processing, among other fields of interest in cognitive neuroscience...
