We cannot test speech in animal

Frontal lobe has other higher function which differentiate from animal.

By symptom we can localize the cerebral lesion.

1870, HITZIG AND FRITSCH Electrically stimulated various

parts of a dog's motor cortex. They observed that

depending on what part of the cortex they stimulated, a different part of the body contracted.

Then they found that if they destroyed this same small area of the cortex, the corresponding part of the body became paralyzed.

This is how it was discovered that every part of the body has a particular region of the primary motor cortex that controls its movement.

Figure 1. Motor maps of the gorilla cortexA, scale drawing of the left hemisphere of one of Leyton & Sherrington’s experiments

on a gorilla (gorilla 1). The numbers and letters encode a wide range of different primary movements evoked by faradic stimulation. Eye movements (372–388) were generally evoked from an area further rostral from the motor cortex. Owing to lack of space, many motor effects were not plotted.

FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION OF THE PRIMARY MOTOR CORTEX

MORE INTRICATE MOTOR MAPS Intracortical micro-stimulation

of layer V confirms the spatial motor map of Penfield

Stimulation of small regions of the map activated single muscles, suggesting that vertical columns of cells in the motor cortex were responsible for controlling the actions of particular muscles.

Microstimulation with simultaneous EMG recording shows that organized movements represented in motor map

Individual pyramidal cells terminates on group of muscles in anterior horn cells in mosaic fashion

LATERAL AND MEDIAL SYSTEM

The initiation of skilled voluntary movement in primates

Loss of precise movement, retained power movement by lateral corticospinal destruction

Anterior corticospinal system destruction produce axial muscle deficits that cause difficulty with balance, walking, and climbing.

CORTICAL CONTROL OF MOVEMENT

1947 Chang, Ruth could stimulate individual muscle by monkey motor cortex stimulation

1954 Bernhard and Bohm : single shock stimulation produces monosynaptic response in forelimb

Landgren, Phillips and Porter (1962). stimulated the surface of the motor cortex while recording intracellularly from motoneurons and demonstrated the existante of a cluster of neurons which projected monosynaptically to motor neurons

1953, Malis, Pribram and Kruger showed that the motor cortex received afferent inputs from the periphery in the absence of the sensory cortex

AS A MOVEMENT BECOMES MORE PRACTICED, IT IS REPRESENTED MORE EXTENSIVELY IN PRIMARY MOTOR CORTEX

SUMMARY Primary Motor Cortex:

Codes force and direction of movement Spinal motor neuron are directly under control for

precise movement. Dorsal Premotor Cortex

Movement related neuron encodes sensorimotor transformation for visual and sensory cue

Fire before movement Ventral Premotor Cortex

Encodes learned motor act fire before movement

All cortical neurons are adaptable and plastic

1. Adjacent cortex1. the somatosensory areas of the

parietal cortex,

2. theadjacent areas of the frontal cortex anterior to the motor cortex, and

3. the visual and auditory cortices.

2. Opposite cerebral hemisphere.

3. Somatosensory fibers directly from the ventrobasal complex of the thalamus.

4. Tracts from the ventrolateral and ventroanterior nuclei of the thalamus, which in turn receive signals from the cerebellum and basal ganglia

5. Fibers from the intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus (RAS).
