Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a multisystem neurodegenerative disorder affecting, besides the dopaminergic function, multiple neurotransmission systems, including the cholinergic system. Central cholinergic circuits of human brain can be tested non-invasively by coupling peripheral nerve stimulation… read more here.

Abstract: Short-latency afferent inhibition (SAI) and long-latency afferent inhibition (LAI) are well-known transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paradigms used to probe the sensorimotor system. To date, there is a paucity of research examining the reliability of these… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brs.2021.05.003
Abstract: Short-latency afferent inhibition (SAI) is a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paradigm elicited by pairing a peripheral nerve electrical stimulation with TMS of the motor cortex. Therefore, SAI is suggested as a neurophysiological marker of sensorimotor… read more here.

Abstract: Evidence indicates attention can alter afferent inhibition, a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) evoked measure of cortical inhibition following somatosensory input. When peripheral nerve stimulation is delivered prior to TMS, a phenomenon known as afferent inhibition… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/brainsci11030395
Abstract: The Met allele of the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene confers reduced cortical BDNF expression and associated neurobehavioral changes. BDNF signaling influences the survival, development, and synaptic function of cortical networks. Here, we compared gamma-aminobutyric… read more here.
