Specific changes of bioelectrical brain activity was found in 27 patients with different level of posttraumatic consciousness depression by the methods of crosscorrelation, coherence and factor analysis of EEG. The changes of activity of morphofunctional systems of intracerebral integrations were revealed partially by decreasing of unspecific activity from brainstem structures reflected with increasing of slow wave activity and decreasing of EEG coherence in alpha- and beta-range. Depression of system organization of interconnections of bioelectrical brain activity in frontal and occipital regions of both hemispheres was also detected, and testified about decreasing of intercortical and thalamocortical brain system action under brain dislocation. The changes of integrative brain system activity, provides interhemispheric interaction, had the specific characted. Our results propose a "facilitation" of activity of system, providing "direct" interhemispheric connections through corpus callosum and other commissural tracts of telencephalon as a sequel of mesodiencephalon structures depression with steady reciprocal, antiphase relations of slow weve activity in symmetrical areas of hemispheres in coma II patients. The data of our research had shown no complete disintegration of system brain activity in coma II patients in spite of consciousness and brainstem reflexes depression. 相似文献

The corpus callosum (CC) is a brain structure composed of axon fibres linking the right and left hemispheres. Musical training is associated with larger midsagittal cross-sectional area of the CC, suggesting that interhemispheric communication may be faster in musicians. Here we compared interhemispheric transmission times (ITTs) for musicians and non-musicians. ITT was measured by comparing simple reaction times to stimuli presented to the same hemisphere that controlled a button-press response (uncrossed reaction time), or to the contralateral hemisphere (crossed reaction time). Both visual and auditory stimuli were tested. We predicted that the crossed-uncrossed difference (CUD) for musicians would be smaller than for non-musicians as a result of faster interhemispheric transfer times. We did not expect a difference in CUDs between the visual and auditory modalities for either musicians or non-musicians, as previous work indicates that interhemispheric transfer may happen through the genu of the CC, which contains motor fibres rather than sensory fibres. There were no significant differences in CUDs between musicians and non-musicians. However, auditory CUDs were significantly smaller than visual CUDs. Although this auditory-visual difference was larger in musicians than non-musicians, the interaction between modality and musical training was not significant. Therefore, although musical training does not significantly affect ITT, the crossing of auditory information between hemispheres appears to be faster than visual information, perhaps because subcortical pathways play a greater role for auditory interhemispheric transfer. 相似文献

In acute experiments on 49 curarized adult rats without general anaesthesia, we studied the transmission of discharges of cortical penicillin foci between the two hemispheres after transecting the corpus callosum. Projected discharges of the cortical penicillin focus appeared in the contralateral hemisphere later than in the controls and had a very different shape. The interhemispheric response of the experimental rats consisted of a small positive and a small negative deflection with long latent periods. Focal discharges could be triggered by electrical stimulat;on of the contralateral hemisphere only irregularly and for short periods of time. In rats with a transected corpus callosum, two symmetrical cortical foci at first behaved independently of each other; their synchronization then slowly improved, but never attained 100 per cent. The corpus callosum is the preferential pathway for interhemispheric transmission of focal activity. Transection of this pathway makes the transmission conditions much worse, but further connections, with a longer conduction time and lower efficacy, gradually come into action. 相似文献

It is shown in seven patients with partial commissurotomy in connection with arterial aneurysms of the anterior conjunctival and pericallosal arteriae, that the section of the corpus callosum leads to memory disturbances, qualitatively differing by their structure from mnemic disorders described in literature. Important role of the knee of the Corpus callosum in genesis of these disturbances is revealed, their types are described and neuropsychological are criteria formulated of evaluation of disturbance of interhemispheric interaction in the mnemic sphere, opening new perspectives in diagnosis and correction of mental processes disturbances at local brain lesions. 相似文献

The corpus callosum contributes to the interhemispheric transfer of somatosensory information. Since the somatosensory pathways are essentially crossed, a number of studies have postulated that the corpus callosum may be responsible for the presence of bilateral receptive fields (RFs) in cortical area SII. Moreover, subcortical structures, as well as some of the other commissures, may also contribute to the bilateral nature of these cells. In order to assess the relative importance of the corpus callosum, this study compared the RF properties of cells in area SII of callosum-sectioned cats to normal cats, using single-cell recordings. Results showed that the corpus callosum makes an important contribution to the bilateral activation of cells in SII, since the proportion of cells with bilateral RFs found in callosum-sectioned cats was less than half that obtained in normal cats. The decrease in the proportion of bilateral RFs was found for all body regions with the exception of the face. However, the substantial number of bilateral RFs remaining in callosotomized cats indicates that this structure is not the sole contributor to the bilateral activation of cells in SII. In order to determine whether this residual bilateral activation might be mediated by the other interhemispheric commissures, a group of cats was subjected, besides the callosotomy, to the additional transection of their subcortical commissures, including the anterior, posterior, habenular, and intertectal commissures, as well as the massa intermedia. When this group of deep-split cats was compared to the callosotomized group, the results indicated that the contribution of the other commissures to bilateral activation is negligible, since approximately the same proportion of bilateral RFs was encountered in the two groups. The relative importance of the callosal contribution to bilateral RFs of different body regions is discussed with respect to the roles commonly attributed to this structure. 相似文献

Experiments carried out on cats showed that interhemispheric generalization of strychnine spasmodic potentials from the orbito-frontal cortex were mainly brought about by the callosal pathway. In contrast to other projection and association zones of the cortex only the frontal portion of the corpus callosum (the rostrum) and not the whole corpus took part in transmitting strychnine commissures. The results of investigations carried out were consistent with the general conception of the principle of the determining dispatch station (DDS) in the nervous system integration activity. These results reveal that the appearance of the DDS induces secondary excitation foci which fully reproduce tha work regimen of the DDS. Switching of such "mirror" foci representing "the destination stations" from the DDS influence led to the elimination of the activity induced in them. 相似文献

The role of the corpus callosum (CC) in the interhemispheric interaction of prosodic and syntactic information during speech comprehension was investigated in patients with lesions in the CC, and in healthy controls. The event-related brain potential experiment examined the effect of prosodic phrase structure on the processing of a verb whose argument structure matched or did not match the prior prosody-induced syntactic structure. While controls showed an N400-like effect for prosodically mismatching verb argument structures, thus indicating a stable interplay between prosody and syntax, patients with lesions in the posterior third of the CC did not show this effect. Because these patients displayed a prosody-independent semantic N400 effect, the present data indicate that the posterior third of the CC is the crucial neuroanatomical structure for the interhemispheric interplay of suprasegmental prosodic information and syntactic information. 相似文献

The effect of prenatal malnutrition on the anatomy of the corpus callosum was assessed in adult rats (45-52 days old). In the prenatally malnourished animals we observed a significant reduction of the corpus callosum total area, partial areas, and perimeter, as compared with normal animals. In addition, the splenium of corpus callosum (posterior fifth) showed a significant decrease of fiber diameters in the myelinated fibers without changing density. There was also a significant decrease in diameter and a significant increase in density of unmyelinated fibers. Measurements of perimeter's fractal dimensions from sagittal sections of the brain and corpus callosum did not show significant differences between malnourished and control animals. These findings indicate that cortico-cortical connections are vulnerable to the prenatal malnutrition, and suggest this may affect interhemispheric conduction velocity, particularly in visual connections (splenium). 相似文献

Background
The two human cerebral hemispheres are continuously interacting, through excitatory and inhibitory influences and one critical structure subserving this interhemispheric balance is the corpus callosum. Interhemispheric neurophysiological abnormalities and intrahemispheric behavioral impairments have been reported in individuals lacking the corpus callosum. The aim of this study was to examine intrahemispheric neurophysiological function in primary motor cortex devoid of callosal projections. 相似文献10.

Changes in the EEG spectral coherence characteristics were analyzed in 60 patients in the early postoperative period after the excision of basal-diencephalic tumors (located in the hypothalamic and thalamic structures) using different surgical approaches (transcallosal, subfrontal, and transnasal). On the first day after surgery, all the patients exhibited a significant decrease in the Δ, θ, and α rhythms compared to the preoperative recordings. Decreased interhemispheric and increased intrahemispheric coherent relations were found simultaneously with changes in the EEG power in patients operated on through the transcranial approach. Within 7–10 days, the pathological structure of the functional relations changed reciprocally. In the case of the transnasal approach, the patients exhibited only an impairment of interhemispheric interaction in the frontocentral areas on the first day after surgery. A decrease in the interhemispheric and an increase in the intrahemispheric coherent relations were determined by the irritation of the pathologically changed hypothalamic and thalamic structures, rather than the dissection of the corpus callosum. 相似文献

Neuroimaging studies have demonstrated that patients with Alzheimer’s disease presented disconnection syndrome. However, little is known about the alterations of interhemispheric functional interactions and underlying structural connectivity in the AD patients. In this study, we combined resting-state functional MRI and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to investigate interhemispheric functional and structural connectivity in 16 AD, 16 mild cognitive impairment (MCI), as well as 16 cognitive normal healthy subjects (CN). The pattern of the resting state interhemispheric functional connectivity was measured with a voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) method. Decreased VMHC was observed in AD and MCI subjects in anterior brain regions including the prefrontal cortices and subcortical regions with a pattern of AD<MCI<CN. Increased VMHC was observed in MCI subjects in posterior brain regions with patterns of AD/CN < MCI (sensorimotor cortex) and AD < CN/MCI (occipital gyrus). DTI analysis showed the most significant difference among the three cohorts was the fractional anisotropy in the genu of corpus callosum, which was positively associated with the VMHC of prefrontal and subcortical regions. Across all the three cohorts, the diffusion parameters in the genu of corpus callosum and VMHC in the above brain regions had significant correlation with the cognitive performance. These results demonstrate that there are specific patterns of interhemispheric functional connectivity changes in the AD and MCI, which can be significantly correlated with the integrity changes in the midline white matter structures. These results suggest that VMHC can be used as a biomarker for the degeneration of the interhemispheric connectivity in AD. 相似文献

Antidromic and monosynaptic unit responses to the stimulation of the corpus callosum and the symmetrical cortical area as well as antidromic responses to pyramidal tract and thalamic nuclei stimulation were recorded in the sensorimotor cortex of unanaesthetized rabbits. Out of 182 callosal neurones 13 exhibited transcallosal monosynaptic responses. 8 out of 56 callosal units responded antidromically to pyramidal tract or thalamic stimulation. Thus callosal neurones may be monosynaptically excited by callosal units via the corpus callosum and by the pyramidal tract units. It was also found that a pyramidal tract neurone may send a collateral through the corpus callosum and at the same time have a transcallosal monosynaptic input. The role of monosynaptic transcallosal excitation of callosal neurones is discussed. 相似文献

I. P. Pavlov [12] has shown that conditioned reflexes are selective both with respect to conditioned stimuli and to conditioned reflexes elicited by those conditioned stimuli. At the neuronal level selective aspects of conditioned stimuli are based on detectors selectively tuned to respective stimuli. The selective aspects of conditioned reflexes are due to command neurons representing specific unconditioned reflexes. It can be assumed that conditioned reflexes result from association between selective detectors and specific command neurons. The detectors activated by a conditioned stimulus constitute a combination of excitations--a detector excitation vector. The detector excitation vector acts on a command neuron via a set of plastic synapses--a synaptic weight vector. Plastic synapses are modified in the process of learning making command neuron selectively tuned to a specific conditioned stimulus. The selective tuning of a particular command neuron to a specific excitation vector referred to a conditioned stimulus is a basis of associative learning. The probabilities of conditioned reflexes elicited by conditioned and differential stimuli implicitly contain information concerning excitation vectors that encode respective stimuli. Contribution of the vector code to associative learning was explored combining differential color conditioning with intracellular recording from color-coding neurons. It was shown that colors in carps and monkeys are represented on a hypersphere in the four-dimensional space similar to human color space. The basis of the color space is constituted by red-green, blue-yellow, brightness and darkness neurons. 相似文献

Andermann syndrome is characterized by agenesis of corpus callosum, anterior horn cell disease, a mixed sensory and motor neuropathy, and facial dysmorphism, and is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. A 7-month-old boy was admitted with developmental retardation. Head control was not gained and he could not sit. He had high arched palate, elongated facies and large angle of the mandible, which were compatible with the Andermann syndrome. Moderate hypotonicity and absent tendon reflexes were also noted. Serum creatine kinase level was normal. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain showed agenesis of the corpus callosum. Electromyographic examination revealed the presence of both sensory and motor neuropathy. The patient was diagnosed as having the Andermann syndrome according to the clinical and laboratory findings and he is reported due to rare presentation. 相似文献

The present study was aimed at comparative electrophysiological, clinical, and neurophysiological assessment of the brain functional state in dextrals (50 men) and sinistrals (5 men), who participated in the Chernobyl clean. The patients were observed over the course of 10 years (from 1990 to 1999). The results of examination of healthy persons (20 dextrals and 10 sinistrals) were used as a control. The clinical examination revealed the earlier manifestation and more severe development of paroxysmal and epileptic seizures in sinistrals than in dextrals. Electrophysiological study showed a progressive decrease in interhemispheric asymmetry of the EEG coherence characteristic for a healthy brain to inversion of its sign. These changes were more pronounced in sinistrals. In the remote terms after radiation, the interhemispheric EEG coherence decreased over the whole cortex, especially, in the frontal and central areas in both groups of patients. Neurophysiological study revealed a progressive impairment of voluntary motor activity and tactile sensibility, especially, in the left hand. These defects were more expressed in sinistrals than in dextrals. The results of complex and longitudinal examination suggest that the observed changes in brain asymmetry and interhemispheric interaction can be not only a result of a dysfunction of subcortical limbic-reticular and mediobasal brain structures but also a result of the white matter damage including corpus callosum. More expressed impairments in sinistrals than in dextrals can be explained by specific morphofunctional organization of the brain in persons with different sensor and motor asymmetries. 相似文献

Binocular interaction was investigated by the evoked potentials method in symmetrical centers of the rat striatal cortex before and after division of the corpus callosum. One eye was always stimulated by flashes of average intensity and the other by flashes of varied intensity. Contralateral facilitation was shown to be increased with an increase in the strength of stimulation. Ipsilateral facilitation was found to exist and to change into ipsilateral depression. In all cases contralateral effects were stronger than ipsilateral. The reciprocity of contralateral and ipsilateral influences in the striatal cortex is emphasized. Division of the corpus callosum leads to strengthening of the contralateral and ipsilateral facilitatory and depressive influences. Depressive ipsilateral influences are found after callosotomy in response to weaker stimuli than before the operation.Biological Institute, Leningrad University.

The present review summarizes some results of a research program oriented to determine the anatomical substrates of interhemispheric communication in humans, as seen in postmortem material. One main finding is a sensible pattern of histological differentiation along the corpus callosum, indicating specific properties of interhemispheric conduction for axonal fibers involved in different brain functions. Callosal regions that connect primary and secondary sensory and motor areas are characterized by a large proportion of fast-conducting, large-diameter fibers, while regions connecting the so-called association areas and prefrontal areas bear a high density of slow-conducting, lightly myelinated and thin fibers. These findings are interpreted in a functional context, suggesting that the fast-conducting fibers connecting sensory and motor areas contribute to fuse the two hemirepresentations in each hemisphere. It has also been determined that an increased callosal area indicates an increased number of callosal fibers, a finding that validates previous morphometric studies done in several laboratories. No sex differences in callosal size, shape, or in callosal fiber composition were found. Finally, an inverse relation was found between the anatomical asymmetries in the size of the Sylvian fissure and the size and number of fibers in specific segments of the corpus callosum. There were sex differences in terms of the particular callosal regions showing a significant correlation with asymmetries, and in terms of the fiber types that were correlated with asymmetries. 相似文献

Molecular neurobiological factors determining corpus callosum physiology and anatomy have been suggested to be one of the major factors determining functional hemispheric asymmetries. Recently, it was shown that allelic variations in two myelin-related genes, the proteolipid protein 1 gene PLP1 and the contactin 1 gene CNTN1, are associated with differences in interhemispheric integration. Here, we investigated whether three single nucleotide polymorphisms that were associated with interhemispheric integration via the corpus callosum in a previous study also are relevant for functional hemispheric asymmetries. To this end, we tested more than 900 healthy adults with the forced attention dichotic listening task, a paradigm to assess language lateralization and its modulation by cognitive control processes. Moreover, we used the line bisection task, a paradigm to assess functional hemispheric asymmetries in spatial attention. We found that a polymorphism in PLP1, but not CNTN1, was associated with performance differences in both tasks. Both functional hemispheric asymmetries and their modulation by cognitive control processes were affected. These findings suggest that both left and right hemisphere dominant cognitive functions can be modulated by allelic variation in genes affecting corpus callosum structure. Moreover, higher order cognitive processes may be relevant parameters when investigating the molecular basis of hemispheric asymmetries. 相似文献

Sex differences have been reported in both overall corpus callosum area and its regional subdivisions in humans. Some have suggested this reflects a unique adaptation in humans, as similar sex differences in corpus callosum morphology have not been reported in any other species of primate examined to date. Furthermore, an association between various measurements of corpus callosum morphology and handedness has been found in humans and chimpanzees. In the current study, we report measurements of corpus callosum cross-sectional area from midsagittal MR images collected in vivo from 14 adult capuchin monkeys, 9 of which were also characterized for hand preference on a coordinated bimanual task. Adult females were found to have a significantly larger corpus callosum: brain volume ratio, rostral body, posterior midbody, isthmus, and splenium than adult males. Left-handed individuals had a larger relative overall corpus callosum area than did right-handed individuals. Additionally, a significant sex and handedness interaction was found for anterior midbody, with right-handed males having a significantly smaller area than right-handed females. These results suggest that sex and handedness influences on corpus callosum morphology are not restricted to Homo sapiens. 相似文献
