Cortical Connections to Single Digit Representations in Area 3b of Somatosensory Cortex in Squirrel Monkeys and Prosimian Galagos
TL;DR: Analysis of cortical inputs to individual digit representations of area 3b in four squirrel monkeys and one prosimian galago showed that feedback projections to individual digits overlapped extensively in the hand representations of areas 3b, 1, and parietal ventral (PV) and second somatosensory areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subcortical barrelette-like and barreloid-like structures in the prosimian galago (Otolemur garnetti).

TL;DR: A distinct array of barrelette-like and barreloid-like modules are shown in the principal sensory nucleus, the spinal trigeminal nucleus, and the ventroposterior medial subnucleus of the galago, Otolemur garnetti.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intracortical connections are altered after long-standing deprivation of dorsal column inputs in the hand region of area 3b in squirrel monkeys.
TL;DR: Unexpectedly, the intrinsic connections within area 3b hand cortex were more widespread after incomplete dorsal column lesions (DCLs) than after a complete DCL, and these changes in connections may contribute to the reactivation process after injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spinal cord neuron inputs to the cuneate nucleus that partially survive dorsal column lesions: A pathway that could contribute to recovery after spinal cord injury.
TL;DR: A small second‐order pathway to the cuneate nucleus that survives high cervical dorsal column lesions by traveling in the lateral funiculus is revealed, which could be important for cortical reactivation by hand afferents, and recovery of hand use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Second-order spinal cord pathway contributes to cortical responses after long recoveries from dorsal column injury in squirrel monkeys
TL;DR: It is shown that the recovery of cortical activity months after extensive damage to the primary touch pathway in the dorsal column depends on a few surviving primary axons together with the greater number of preserved axons in a secondary touch pathway from spinal cord neurons.
