A 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.
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...

Oxidative damage has been suggested as a potential mechanism for both atherosclerosis and neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease.' One report has noted a 2-5-fold increased risk of cardiovascular disease among patients with Parkinson's disease,2 suggesting that a common genetic variant may contribute to both diseases. One such candidate genetic factor, the ApoE-E4 allele, is fo...
متن کاملDual sensory-motor function for a molluskan statocyst network.
In mollusks, statocyst receptor cells (SRCs) interact with each other forming a neural network; their activity is determined by both the animal's orientation in the gravitational field and multimodal inputs. These two facts suggest that the function of the statocysts is not limited to sensing the animal's orientation. We studied the role of the statocysts in the organization of search motion du...
متن کاملSecondary 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...
