Popis: | Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the primary motor cortex (M1) elicits both electroencephalographic (TMS-evoked EEG potentials, TEPs) and electromyographic (motor-evoked potentials, MEPs) responses. Despite this peculiar feature, the effects of M1 stimulation have never been systematically compared with those of other cortical areas and the influence of muscle activation on TEPs is still largely unknown. The present study explored specific features of TEPs elicited by M1 stimulation and assessed whether these features are influenced by MEP amplitude. To this aim, two separate experiments were performed. In experiment 1, single-pulse TMS was applied on primary motor, prefrontal, premotor and parietal cortices at equivalent intensity and the corresponding TEPs were compared by means of local mean field power and time-frequency spectrum. In experiment 2, we focused on M1 where TMS was delivered at resting motor threshold, thus eliciting MEPs with a wide range of amplitude. Here, TEPs computed from high-MEP and low-MEP trials were compared using the same methods applied in experiment 1. With respect to the other cortical targets, TMS of the motor cortex produced larger TEPs accompanied by a late (~300 ms) event-related desynchronization (ERD). The magnitude of these features was proportional to the amplitude of MEPs as highlighted by the comparison between high-MEP and low-MEP conditions. The larger TEPs amplitude and the presence of a late ERD are hallmarks of the primary motor cortex stimulation. These results might reflect specific anatomo-functional features of the motor cortex including the proprioceptive feedback produced by muscle activation. |
