Assessment of the effect of continuous theta burst stimulation of the motor cortex on manual dexterity in non-human primates in a direct comparison with invasive intracortical pharmacological inactivation

Roux, Camille ; Kaeser, Mélanie ; Savidan, Julie ; Fregosi, Michela ; Rouiller, Eric M. ; Schmidlin, Eric

In: European Journal of Neuroscience, 2019, p. -

Non-invasive reversible perturbation techniques of brain output such as continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS), commonly used to modulate cortical excitability in humans, allow investigation of possible roles in functional recovery played by distinct intact cortical areas following stroke. To evaluate the potential of cTBS, the behavioural effects of this non-invasive transient...

Fine manual dexterity assessment after autologous neural cell ecosystem (ANCE) transplantation in a non-human primate model of parkinson’s disease

Borgognon, Simon ; Cottet, Jérôme ; Moret, Véronique ; Chatagny, Pauline ; Carrara, Laura ; Fregosi, Michela ; Bloch, Jocelyne ; Brunet, Jean-François ; Rouiller, Eric M. ; Badoud, Simon

In: Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair, 2019, vol. 33, no. 7, p. 553–567

Autologous neural cell ecosystem (ANCE) transplantation improves motor recovery in MPTP monkeys. These motor symptoms were assessed using semi-quantitative clinical rating scales, widely used in many studies. However, limitations in terms of sensitivity, combined with relatively subjective assessment of their different items, make inter-study comparisons difficult to achieve. Objective. The...

Intracortical inhibition increases during postural task execution in response to balance training

Mouthon, Audrey ; Taube, Wolfgang

In: Neuroscience, 2019, vol. 401, p. 35–42

Intracortical inhibitory modulation seems crucial for an intact motor control and motor learning. However, the influence of long(er) term training on short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI) is scarcely investigated. With respect to balance, it was previously shown that with increasing postural task difficulty, SICI decreased but the effect of balance training (BT) is unknown. The...

Asymmetric and distant effects of a unilateral lesion of the primary motor cortex on the bilateral supplementary motor areas in adult macaque monkeys

Contestabile, Alessandro. ; Colangiulo, R. ; Lucchini, Matteo ; Gindrat, Anne-Dominique ; Hamadjida, Adjia ; Kaeser, Mélanie ; Savidan, Julie ; Wyss, A. F. ; Rouiller, Eric M. ; Schmidlin, Eric

In: Journal of Neuroscience, 2018, vol. 38, no. 50, p. 10644–10656

A restricted lesion of the hand area in the primary motor cortex (M1) leads to a deficit of contralesional manual dexterity, followed by an incomplete functional recovery, accompanied by plastic changes in M1 itself and in other cortical areas on both hemispheres. Using the marker SMI-32 specific to pyramidal neurons in cortical layers III and V, we investigated the impact of a focal...
