The encoding of touch by somatotopically aligned dorsal column subdivisions

J Turecek, BP Lehnert, DD Ginty - Nature, 2022 - nature.com
The somatosensory system decodes a range of tactile stimuli to generate a coherent sense
of touch. Discriminative touch of the body depends on signals conveyed from peripheral …

Emergence of a brainstem somatosensory tonotopic map for substrate vibration

KS Lee, AJ Loutit, D de Thomas Wagner… - Nature …, 2024 - nature.com
Perceiving substrate-borne vibrations is a fundamental component of tactile perception. How
location (somatotopy) and frequency tuning (tonotopy) of vibrations are integratively …

Predictive attenuation of touch and tactile gating are distinct perceptual phenomena

K Kilteni, HH Ehrsson - Iscience, 2022 - cell.com
In recent decades, research on somatosensory perception has led to two important
observations. First, self-generated touches that are predicted by voluntary movements …

Abstract Fast-adapting type 1 (FA-1) and slow-adapting type 1 (SA-1) first-order neurons in
the human tactile system have distal axons that branch in the skin and form many …

A context-dependent switch from sensing to feeling in the primate amygdala

AB Martin, MA Cardenas, RK Andersen, AI Bowman… - Cell reports, 2023 - cell.com
The skin transmits affective signals that integrate into our social vocabulary. As the socio-
affective aspects of touch are likely processed in the amygdala, we compare neural …

Emergence of a somatosensory tonotopic map for substrate vibration in the brainstem

KS Lee, DT Wagner, M Sanders, D Huber - BioRxiv, 2023 - biorxiv.org
Perceiving substrate vibrations is a fundamental component of tactile perception. The wide
frequency spectrum of vibrations is covered by integrating responses of multiple …
