Proteomic landscape of the primary somatosensory cortex upon sensory deprivation
Experience-dependent plasticity (EDP) powerfully shapes neural circuits by inducing long-lasting molecular changes in the brain. Molecular mechanisms of EDP have been traditionally studied by identifying single or small subsets of targets along the biochemical pathways that link synaptic receptors to nuclear processes. Recent technological advances in large-scale analysis of gene transcription ...
متن کاملThalamocortical connections of the primary somatosensory cortex
Although each subdivision of primary somatosensory cortex (SI) receives dense input from the thalamus, but the exact location and type of information that the fibers convey have not been identified yet. In the present study, the exact source of thalamocortical fibers to areas 2 and 3b was investigated using tract-tracing techniques. Following injection of tracer into area 3b, labeled neurons ...
متن کاملPrimary Somatosensory and Motor Cortex
Figure 1. The gross anatomy of the brain is shown from a lateral (a) and medial (b) view. The wrinkled outer surface that covers the majority of the brain is the cerebral cortex. In panel (a) labels illustrate some of the areas of localized function including primary motor cortex on the precentral gyrus (M1) and primary somatosensory cortex on the postcentral gyrus (S1). Other primary sensory c...
متن کاملNeuronal correlates of sensory discrimination in the somatosensory cortex.
Monkeys are able to discriminate the difference in frequency between two periodic mechanical vibrations applied sequentially to the fingertips. It has been proposed that this ability is mediated by the periodicity of the responses in the quickly adapting (QA) neurons of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1), instead of the average firing rates. We recorded from QA neurons of S1 while monkeys pe...
متن کاملSensory Neuroscience: From Skin to Object in the Somatosensory Cortex
Humans can perceive the shape of objects by touch alone, by extracting geometric features such as edges. Recently recorded responses of single neurons in the secondary somatosensory cortex of monkeys suggest how the brain integrates tactile shape information across different regions of skin and builds up a representation of tactile objects.
