Magnetoencephalography revealed early brain activity in the primary somatosensory cortex during aversive conditioning. This conditioned response suggests corticothalamic pathways control pain perception.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Neuroscience
  • Sensory Systems

Background:

  • Previous positron emission tomography studies indicated primary somatosensory cortex (SI) activation during aversive conditioning.
  • The temporal coding of this SI activation remained unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the temporal dynamics of primary somatosensory cortex (SI) activation using magnetoencephalography (MEG).
  • To elucidate the role of SI in aversive classical conditioning and nociception.

Main Methods:

  • Magnetoencephalography (MEG) was employed to record brain activity.
  • Aversive classical conditioning paradigm involving visual stimuli and electric shocks was used.
  • Four healthy volunteers participated in the study.

Main Results:

  • A conditioned magnetic response was identified in the primary somatosensory cortex (SI).
  • This conditioned response occurred before the unconditioned stimulus (electric shock).

Conclusions:

  • The findings provide evidence for the temporal coding of SI activation during aversive conditioning.
  • The results suggest functional control of nociception mediated by corticothalamic projections.
