Premotor cortex in the rat. by Passingham, R, Myers, C, Rawlins, N, Lightfoot, V, Fearn, S

“…Thus removing this area in rats has a similar effect to removing premotor cortex in monkeys. It is argued that this dorsomedial shoulder area should not be regarded as part of prefrontal cortex in the rat.…”

Rhythm and time in the premotor cortex. by Virginia B Penhune, Robert J Zatorre

“…Beat-based timing is hypothesized to rely on the integration of sensory information with temporal information encoded in motor regions such as the medial premotor cortex (MPC), but how beat-based timing might be encoded in neuronal populations is mostly unknown. …”

Functionally specific reorganization in human premotor cortex. by O'Shea, J, Johansen-Berg, H, Trief, D, Göbel, S, Rushworth, M

“…After unilateral stroke, the dorsal premotor cortex (PMd) in the intact hemisphere is often more active during movement of an affected limb. …”

The role of dorsal premotor cortex in joint action stopping by Pasquale Cardellicchio, Elisa Dolfini, Alessandro D'Ausilio

Cerebellar – Premotor cortex interactions underlying visuomotor adaptation by Elinor Tzvi, Fabian Koeth, Anke N. Karabanov, Hartwig R. Siebner, Ulrike M. Krämer

“…We tested this hypothesis using dynamic causal modelling and found distinct modulation of a cerebellar to dorsal premotor cortex (dPMC) loop. Specifically, the cerebellar to dPMC connection was modulated during adaptation, suggesting a release of inhibition and net excitatory effect of cerebellum on dPMC. …”

The role of dorsal premotor cortex in joint action inhibition by Elisa Dolfini, Pasquale Cardellicchio, Luciano Fadiga, Alessandro D’Ausilio

“…Offline continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) was used to interfere with dorsal premotor cortex (PMd), ventral premotor cortex (PMv), and control site (vertex) before the execution of the task. …”

Decision-making in the ventral premotor cortex harbinger of action by José L. ePardo-Vázquez, Isabel ePadron, Isabel ePadron, José eFernandez-Rey, Carlos eAcuña

“…Although the premotor cortex (PM) was once viewed as the substrate of pure motor functions, soon it was realized that it was involved in higher brain functions. …”

Premotor cortex and the conditions for movement in monkeys (Macaca fascicularis). by Halsband, U, Passingham, R

“…In the present experiment premotor cortex was removed bilaterally in monkeys. The monkeys were unable to relearn a visual conditional motor task on which the correct action is specified by visual cues. …”

Differential activation of the lateral premotor cortex during action observation by Stark Rudolf, Lorey Britta, Pilgramm Sebastian, Munzert Jörn, Vaitl Dieter, Zentgraf Karen

“…Experts revealed increased activation in the ventral premotor cortex compared to novices. An internal viewpoint led to higher activation of the dorsal premotor cortex.…”
