“…This occurs until the task requires a maximal voluntary effort. The system that increases the motor output from the M1 is known as the facilitation system and is composed of a re-entrant neural circuit that interconnects the limbic system, basal ganglia (BG), thalamus (TH), orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), premotor area (PM), supplementary motor area (SMA), and M1 (Dettmers et al, 1996;Behan, 2000, 2004;Johnston et al, 2001;Liu et al, 2003Liu et al, , 2007Korotkov et al, 2005;Post et al, 2009;. A motivational input to this facilitation system enhances activity in the SMA and then M1, thereby increasing the motor output to the peripheral system .…”
