“…However, rather than dis proving that pain is a specific sensation, as Wall proclaimed 13 , this phenomenon instead reveals the disinhibition (unmasking) of another pathway (lamina I to medial dorsal thalamus to anterior cingulate cortex) that is again present only in primates 4 (see also REF. 15), as presciently conjectured by Head and Holmes 7 . Because these structures are present only in primates there can never be a rodent model of post stroke central pain.…”

“…A lesion of the ascending lamina I fibres in the middle of the lateral funiculus, a lesion of the VMpo or a lesion of dorsal posterior insula (dpIns) can cause the complete and permanent loss of pain and temperature sensation in a contralateral region of the body [5][6][7][8] . Conversely, micro stimulation in either the VMpo or the dpIns in awake humans can cause a well localized report of either sensation 9,10 .…”

“…Paradoxically, post stroke central pain can emerge after a lesion of either the VMpo or the dpIns 7,8 .

“…We suggest that underlying these processes are three classes of body representations. The first two were first described by Head and Holmes (1911): the postural schema, a dynamic representation of the position of the body in space, and the superficial schema, mediating localisation of somatic sensations on the body surface. The third body representations is a model of metric Body Beyond SI 7 properties of the body, such as body part size.…”

The neural circuits underlying initial sensory processing of somatic information are relatively well understood. In contrast, the processes that go beyond primary somatosensation to create more abstract representations related to the body are less clear. In this review, we focus on two classes of higher-order processing beyond somatosensation. Somatoperception refers to the process of perceiving the body itself, and particularly of ensuring somatic perceptual constancy.We review three key elements of somatoperception: (a) remapping information from the body surface into an egocentric reference frame (b) exteroceptive perception of objects in the external world through their contact with the body and (c) interoceptive percepts about the nature and state of the body itself. Somatorepresentation, in contrast, refers to the essentially cognitive process of constructing semantic knowledge and attitudes about the body, including: (d) lexicalsemantic knowledge about bodies generally and one's own body specifically, (e) configural knowledge about the structure of bodies, (f) emotions and attitudes directed towards one's own body, and (g) the link between physical body and psychological self. We review a wide range of neuropsychological, neuroimaging and neurophysiological data to explore the dissociation between these different aspects of higher somatosensory function.Body Beyond SI 3

Abstract:In this review, we describe the current models of dorsal and ventral streams in vision, audition and touch. Available theories take their first steps from the model of Milner and Goodale, which was developed to explain how human actions can be efficiently carried out using visual information. Since then, similar concepts have also been applied to other sensory modalities. We propose that advances in the knowledge of brain functioning can be achieved through models explaining action and perception patterns independently from sensory modalities.
