The postcentral gyrus is much like the precentral gyrus, in that each part of the gyrus corresponds to an area of the body; however rather than being a motor area, the postcentral gyrus processes sensory information such as touch and information about where the body is and which direction it ...
Anatomy The brain stem is a tube-shaped mass of nervous tissue a little over 3 inches (8 cm) long. It is located at the base of the brain, superior to the spinal cord and inferior to the cerebrum. As the brain stem ascends from the spinal cord, it widens and becomes more complex ...

We also observed increased gray matter volume in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the dorsal precentral and postcentral gyrus. Prior research reported that people with ASD have differences in frontal lobe neuronal integrity,61 function,62-64 anatomy,22,34,65,66 and connectivity.17 In addition,...

Recent studies showed that the precentral gyrus is implicated in the regulation of emotion and self-evaluation51, including the perception of body image52. Moreover, the precentral gyrus was associated with self-motion control of penile movement as well as with the imagination of sexual behaviors ...
Brain diseases including neurological disorders and tumors remain under treated due to the challenge to access the brain, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) restricting drug delivery which, also profoundly limits the development of pharmacological treatment.
One of these, the primary motor cortex, is the precentral gyrus just anterior to the central sulcus. The motor areas are extensively connected to the basal ganglia and cerebellum. Working together in complex feedback loops, these areas are essential for motor coordination, postural stability and ...
