“…location of the PIVC (Eickhoff et al 2006). That part of the posterior insula is a multimodal area representing both vestibular and proprioceptive stimuli (Akbarian et al 1988;Grusser et al 1990b;Downar et al 2000;Bottini et al 2001;Petit and Beauchamp 2003;Fasold et al 2008;Mazzola et al 2012;Ferre et al 2012;zu Eulenburg et al 2013). In this study, electrolytic lesions were confirmed in the caudal retroinsular cortex about 2 mm posterior to the interaural axis, about 18 mm lateral, and about 7 mm ventral from the surface of the brain.…”

“…Recent findings from brain imaging argue against such speculation and show that the posterior insula does not require active or even actual movement to be responsive but can be activated by the perception of movement (Kahane et al 2003;Nowak et al 2005;Karnath et al 2005) and by imagined movements of the body (Jahn et al 2004;Fasold et al 2008;Deutschländer et al 2009). Furthermore, self-motion perception can be induced without involving the posterior insula (physiology: Chen et al 2010;imaging: Becker-Bense et al 2012).…”

Vestibular signals are pervasive throughout the central nervous system, including the cortex, where they likely play different roles than they do in the better studied brainstem. Little is known about the parieto-insular vestibular cortex (PIVC), an area of the cortex with prominent vestibular inputs. Neural activity was recorded in the PIVC of rhesus macaques during combinations of head, body, and visual target rotations. Activity of many PIVC neurons was correlated with the motion of the head in space (vestibular), the twist of the neck (proprioceptive), and the motion of a visual target, but was not associated with eye movement. PIVC neurons responded most commonly to more than one stimulus, and responses to combined movements could often be approximated by a combination of the individual sensitivities to head, neck, and target motion. The pattern of visual, vestibular, and somatic sensitivities on PIVC neurons displayed a continuous range, with some cells strongly responding to one or two of the stimulus modalities while other cells responded to any type of motion equivalently. The PIVC contains multisensory convergence of self-motion cues with external visual object motion information, such that neurons do not represent a specific transformation of any one sensory input. Instead, the PIVC neuron population may define the movement of head, body, and external visual objects in space and relative to one another. This comparison of self and external movement is consistent with insular cortex functions related to monitoring and explains many disparate findings of previous studies.

“…The perception of egocentric space in adults includes kinesthetic information from visual input and vestibular afferents, as well as abundant muscle spindles and mechanoreceptors of the facet joint capsules in the neck region. With normal visual and vestibular afferents, the peripheral proprioceptive inputs are relayed to the central nervous system for regulating joint movements through the activation of muscles (Armstrong et al, 2008;Fasold et al, 2008). Recurrent episode of neck pain has reported to induce changes in the cervical mechanoreceptor function (Chen et al, 2006) and to affect the muscle spindle sensitivity (Thunberg et al, 2001).…”

“…Other studies have implicated the lateral intraparietal area (LIP) in coding of head posture; Snyder, Grieve, Brotchie, & Andersen, 1998;Fasold et al, 2008). Furthermore, deficits of Body Beyond SI 13 position sense are on average more severe following PPC lesions in the right than the left hemisphere (Sterzi et al, 1993;Vallar, Antonucci, Guariglia, & Pizzamiglio, 1993).…”

“…As described above, the representation of current limb position has been linked to the superior parietal lobule (Filimon et al, 2009;Pellijeff et al, 2006;Wolpert et al, 1998), as well as the lateral intraparietal area (Fasold et al, 2008;Snyder et al, 1998). Putative sites mediating the further remapping process include areas within the parietal and the premotor cortex, as well as subcortical areas such as the putamen (Graziano & Gross, 1993).…”

More than skin deep: Body representation beyond primary somatosensory cortex

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
