Suppression of ipsilateral motor cortex facilitates motor skill learning.
The primary motor cortex (M1) plays a critical role in early aspects of motor skill learning. Given the notion of inter-hemispheric competition, unilateral disruption of M1 may increase excitability of the unaffected motor cortex and thus improve motor learning with the ipsilateral hand. We applied slow-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) before the initiation of pract...
متن کاملPrimary motor cortex disinhibition during motor skill learning.
Motor learning requires practice over a period of time and depends on brain plasticity, yet even for relatively simple movements, there are multiple practice strategies that can be used for skill acquisition. We investigated the role of intracortical inhibition in the primary motor cortex (M1) during motor skill learning. Event-related transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was used to assess ...
متن کاملSkill learning: Motor cortex rules for learning and memory
A key unresolved issue for systems neurobiology concerns the neural sites and mechanisms of motor skill learning. Sherrington and colleagues [1] noted nearly 100 years ago that neural mechanisms in the primary motor cortex seemingly exhibit a form of plasticity, based on observations of ‘instability’ in responses evoked by cortical stimulation. Seminal work in the following decades also suggest...

متن کاملMotor demand-dependent activation of ipsilateral motor cortex.
The role of ipsilateral primary motor cortex (M1) in hand motor control during complex task performance remains controversial. Bilateral M1 activation is inconsistently observed in functional (f)MRI studies of unilateral hand performance. Two factors limit the interpretation of these data. As the motor tasks differ qualitatively in these studies, it is conceivable that M1 contributions differ w...
