Multiple corticospinal neuron populations in the macaque monkey are specified by their unique cortical origins, spinal terminations, and connections

MP Galea, I Darian-Smith - Cerebral cortex, 1994 - academic.oup.com
In primates, multiple corticospinal projections from the sensorimotor cortex operate in
concert to regulate voluntary action. We examined the soma distributions of all those …

Organization of corticospinal neurons in the monkey

EA Murray, JD Coulter - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1981 - Wiley Online Library
The retrograde axonal transport method has been employed to identify the cell bodies of
cortical neurons projecting directly to the spinal cord in the monkey. The investigation has …

The origin of corticospinal projections from the premotor areas in the frontal lobe

RP Dum, PL Strick - Journal of Neuroscience, 1991 - Soc Neuroscience
We determined the origin of corticospinal neurons in the frontal lobe. These neurons were
labeled by retrograde transport of tracers after injections into either the dorsolateral funiculus …

Bilateral corticospinal projections arise from each motor cortex in the macaque monkey: a quantitative study

S Lacroix, LA Havton, H McKay, H Yang… - Journal of …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
The corticospinal projection is considered to influence fine motor function through nearly
exclusively contralateral projections from the cortex in primates. However, unilateral lesions …

Postnatal maturation of the direct corticospinal projections in the macaque monkey

MP Galea, I Darian-Smith - Cerebral Cortex, 1995 - academic.oup.com
Postnatal changes in the topography of the multiple corticospinal projections in the macaque
monkey were followed using retrogradely transported fluorescent tracers, and related to the …

Topographic organization of corticospinal projections from the frontal lobe: motor areas on the lateral surface of the hemisphere

SQ He, RP Dum, PL Strick - Journal of Neuroscience, 1993 - Soc Neuroscience
We examined the topographic organization of corticospinal neurons in the primary motor
cortex and in the two premotor areas on the lateral surface of the hemisphere [ie, the dorsal …

[HTML][HTML] Corticospinal inputs to primate motoneurons innervating the forelimb from two divisions of primary motor cortex and area 3a

CL Witham, KM Fisher, SA Edgley… - Journal of …, 2016 - Soc Neuroscience
Previous anatomical work in primates has suggested that only corticospinal axons
originating in caudal primary motor cortex (“new M1”) and area 3a make monosynaptic …

Topographic organization of corticospinal projections from the frontal lobe: motor areas on the medial surface of the hemisphere

SQ He, RP Dum, PL Strick - Journal of Neuroscience, 1995 - Soc Neuroscience
We examined the topographic organization of corticospinal neurons in the four premotor
areas on the medial wall of the hemisphere of macaques. These motor areas include the …

Striking differences in transmission of corticospinal excitation to upper limb motoneurons in two primate species

K Nakajima, MA Maier, PA Kirkwood… - Journal of …, 2000 - journals.physiology.org
There is considerable debate as to the relative importance, for cortical control of upper limb
movements, of direct cortico-motoneuronal (CM) versus indirect, propriospinal transmission …

Corticocortical connections of area 2 of somatosensory cortex in macaque monkeys: a correlative anatomical and electrophysiological study

TP Pons, JH Kaas - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1986 - Wiley Online Library
The cortical connections of electrophysiologically identified locations in the body
representations in somatosensory cortex of macaque monkeys were investigated after …
