Neural pathways mediating cross education of motor function
Cross education is the process whereby training of one limb gives rise to enhancements in the performance of the opposite, untrained limb. Despite interest in this phenomenon having been sustained for more than a century, a comprehensive explanation of the mediating neural mechanisms remains elusive. With new evidence emerging that cross education may have therapeutic utility, the need to provi...
متن کاملStructural and Functional Cortical Connectivity Mediating Cross Education of Motor Function
Cross-education (CE) is the process whereby training with one limb leads to subsequent improvement in performance by the opposite untrained limb. We used multimodal neuroimaging in humans to investigate the mediating neural mechanisms by relating quantitative estimates of functional and structural cortical connectivity to individual levels of interlimb transfer. Resting-state (rs)-fMRI and diff...

Editor's Note: These short reviews of a recent paper in the Journal, written exclusively by graduate students or postdoctoral fellows, are intended to mimic the journal clubs that exist in your own departments or institutions. For more information on the format and purpose of the Journal Club, please see Review of Petrovich et al. Humans eat relentlessly. Our modern marketing culture, the ready...
متن کاملAfferent neural pathways mediating cough in animals and humans.
The airways and lungs are densely innervated by sensory nerves, which subserve multiple roles in both the normal physiological control of respiratory functions and in pulmonary defense. These sensory nerves are therefore not homogeneous in nature, but rather have physiological, molecular and anatomical phenotypes that reflect their purpose. All sensory neuron subtypes provide input to the centr...
متن کاملNeural control of oral somatic motor function.
The control and regulation of mastication and other basic oral activities require integration by brain stem cranial nerve nuclei of reflex inputs and commands from other central nervous system nuclei. A current conceptual model for understanding control of rhythmic oral motor activity postulates the existence of a central pattern generator, which produces the sequence of movements common to man...
