Asymmetric transcallosal conduction delay leads to finer bimanual coordination

Abstract: It has been theorized that hemispheric dominance and more segregated information processing have evolved to overcome long conduction delays through the corpus callosum (transcallosal conduction delay-TCD) but that this may still impact behavioral performance, mostly in tasks requiring high timing accuracy. Nevertheless, a thorough understanding of the temporal features of interhemispheric communication is lacking. Here, we aimed to assess the relationship between TCD and behavioral performance with a noninvasi… Show more

“…In our recent study [19], we combined TMS-EEG with diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), which provides microstructural information on callosal integrity, and with the ipsilateral silent period (iSP), a wellknown peripheral measure of interhemispheric inhibition obtained from TMS and electromyography [20]. Our results provided first evidence of M1-P15, a positive component occurring approximately 15 ms after M1 stimulation, as a TEP-derived measure of transcallosal inhibition between motor cortices.…”

“…The bimanual coordination tasks involved a metronome-paced in-phase movements at 2 Hz: a repetitive mirror-symmetrical thumb-to-index opposition task (Tapping) and a sequential mirrorsymmetrical thumb-to-finger opposition task (Sequence), as in [19,27]. Specifically, in the Sequence task participants were asked to oppose their thumb to the other fingers, in the following order: index, middle, ring and little finger.…”

“…Therefore, even in the absence of task-related neuronal activation and "specific" external input, all these synchronized brain regions form resting-state networks (van den Heuvel and Hulshoff Pol 2010). This high level of functional connectivity between regions suggests the existence of a distinctive brain structural architecture to facilitate such ongoing interregional communication (Boorman et al 2007;Bortoletto et al 2021;Momi et al 2021;Quentin et al 2015;Silverstein et al 2020). Thus, understanding how to measure such dynamic patterns underlying brain functions is one of the crucial questions in neuroscience.…”

“…The majority of studies on brain connectivity have been obtained from stand-alone unimodal neuroimaging methods (Plis et al 2011). We proposed the use of an integrative approach with a combination of different methods (Bergmann et al 2016) composed of structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI and fMRI, respectively), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and transcranial magnetic stimulation and electroencephalography (TMS-EEG) coregistration (Bortoletto et al 2021;Esposito et al 2020;Levy-Lamdan et al 2020;Momi et al 2021;Voineskos et al 2010).…”
