Mechanisms of human motor cortex facilitation induced by subthreshold 5-Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation.
Our knowledge about the mechanisms of human motor cortex facilitation induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is still incomplete. Here we used pharmacological conditioning with carbamazepine, dextrometorphan, lorazepam, and placebo to elucidate the type of plasticity underlying this facilitation, and to probe if mechanisms reminiscent of long-term potentiation are involv...
متن کاملHuman Motor Cortex Function Characterized by Navigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) can be used to assess corticospinal, corticocortical and cortico-subcortical network physiology and function. In the motor system, TMS-induced cortical activation leads to peripheral muscle responses. Various motor functions can be characterized extensively by applying specific stimulation protocols. However, the clinical applications are limited by large...
متن کاملTranscranial static magnetic field stimulation of the human motor cortex.
The aim of the present study was to investigate in healthy humans the possibility of a non-invasive modulation of motor cortex excitability by the application of static magnetic fields through the scalp. Static magnetic fields were obtained by using cylindrical NdFeB magnets. We performed four sets of experiments. In Experiment 1, we recorded motor potentials evoked by single-pulse transcranial...
متن کاملRapid Modulation of Distributed Brain Activity by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of Human Motor Cortex
This paper reviews the effects of single and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimuli (rTMS) delivered to one cortical area and measured across distributed brain regions using electrophysiological measures (e.g. motor thresholds, motor evoked potentials, paired-pulse stimulation), functional neuroimaging (including EEG, PET and fMRI) and behavioural measures. Discussion is restricted to changes...
متن کاملStriatal dopamine release induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the human motor cortex.
Brain dopamine is implicated in the regulation of movement, attention, reward and learning. Dysfunction of dopamine plays a role in Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia and drug addiction. It is released in the striatum when dopamine neurons in the midbrain undergo burst firing. Several animal studies have shown that dopamine can also be released under direct control of glutamatergic corticostria...
