Journal ArticleDOI
Functional significance of the cortico–subthalamo–pallidal ‘hyperdirect’ pathway
TL;DR: A dynamic 'center-surround model' of basal ganglia function in the control of voluntary limb movements is proposed and the functional significance of the 'hyperdirect' pathway is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Excitatory Cortical Inputs to Pallidal Neurons Via the Subthalamic Nucleus in the Monkey
Atsushi Nambu,Hironobu Tokuno,Ikuma Hamada,Hitoshi Kita,Michiko Imanishi,Toshikazu Akazawa,Yoko Ikeuchi,Naomi Hasegawa +7 more
TL;DR: This work has shown that activation of the motor-related cortical areas in the basal ganglia regulates the activity of the output nuclei of the basalganglia in the neocortex.
Book
The marmoset brain in stereotaxic coordinates
TL;DR: The Marmoset Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates is the most comprehensive atlas of the brain of this animal available and will be an indispensible tool for neuroanatomists, behavioral neuroscientists, and molecular biologists trying to understand the primate brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corticostriatal and corticosubthalamic input zones from the presupplementary motor area in the macaque monkey: comparison with the input zones from the supplementary motor area
TL;DR: The present results indicate that the corticostriatal and corticosubthalamic input zones from the pre-SMA appear to be segregated from the SMA-derived input zones, which implies the possibility of parallel processing of motor information from the before and after SMA and SMA in the cortico-basal ganglia circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organization of inputs from cingulate motor areas to basal ganglia in macaque monkey.
Masahiko Takada,Hironobu Tokuno,Ikuma Hamada,Masahiko Inase,Yumi Ito,Michiko Imanishi,N. Hasegawa,Toshikazu Akazawa,Nobuhiko Hatanaka,Atsushi Nambu +9 more
TL;DR: The present results indicate that a parallel design underlies motor information processing in the cortico‐basal ganglia loop derived from the rostral and caudal cingulate motor areas.
