Secondary Motor Cortex: Where 'Sensory' Meets 'Motor' in the Rodent Frontal Cortex.
In rodents, the medial aspect of the secondary motor cortex (M2) is known by other names, including medial agranular cortex (AGm), medial precentral cortex (PrCm), and frontal orienting field (FOF). As a subdivision of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), M2 can be defined by a distinct set of afferent and efferent connections, microstimulation responses, and lesion outcomes. However, the behav...
متن کاملMotor control by sensory cortex.
Classical studies of mammalian movement control define a prominent role for the primary motor cortex. Investigating the mouse whisker system, we found an additional and equally direct pathway for cortical motor control driven by the primary somatosensory cortex. Whereas activity in primary motor cortex directly evokes exploratory whisker protraction, primary somatosensory cortex directly drives...
متن کاملThe Organization of the Frontal Motor Cortex.
Recent anatomic and functional data radically changed our ideas about the organization of the motor cortex in primates. Contrary to the classic view, the motor cortex does not consist of two main areas, primary and supplementary motor areas, but of a mosaic of cortical areas with specific connections and functional properties.
متن کاملFetal frontal cortex transplanted to injured motor/sensory cortex of adult rats. I. NADPH-diaphorase neurons.
Fetal frontal cortex from 18-d-old embryonic rat brain was transplanted into cavities of juvenile host motor/sensory cortex. Two to seven months later, sections were reacted for NADPH-diaphorase (NADPH-d) enzyme histochemistry. NADPH-d-positive neurons survived in 11 of 13 grafts. All but one of the transplants had reduced numbers of these neurons, although in 3 transplants the reductions were ...
متن کاملA Hidden Sensory Function for Motor Cortex
Sensory perception has traditionally been attributed to the activation of sensory cortices. However, by inducing an illusory perception of movement, Naito and colleagues show in this issue of Neuron that the illusory perception of movement is related to activation of primary motor cortex.
