Journal ArticleDOI

A common polymorphism in the brain‐derived neurotrophic factor gene (BDNF) modulates human cortical plasticity and the response to rTMS

TL;DR: New non‐invasive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranials direct current stimulation (TDCS) techniques that directly test the excitability and plasticity of neuronal circuits in human motor cortex in subjects at rest are used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ten Years of Theta Burst Stimulation in Humans: Established Knowledge, Unknowns and Prospects

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the LTP/LTD-like plasticity induced by TBS in the human M1 and the status of TBS as a possible new non-invasive therapy aimed at improving symptoms in various neurological disorders is clarified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phasic voluntary movements reverse the aftereffects of subsequent theta-burst stimulation in humans.

TL;DR: Repeated phasic finger movements interfere with TBS-induced aftereffects probably by modulating mechanisms of brain metaplasticity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of volitional contraction on intracortical inhibition and facilitation in the human motor cortex

TL;DR: It is concluded that during muscle activation, intracortical excitability reflects a balance between activation of SICI and SICF systems and part of the reduction in S ICI during contraction is due to superimposed recruitment of S ICF.
