Effects of an acute D2-dopaminergic blockade on the somatosensory cortical responses in healthy humans: evidence from evoked magnetic fields

We tested the possible role of dopaminergic activity in the processing of somatosensory afferent information in healthy humans. Somatosensory evoked magnetic fields (SEFs) were recorded in seven subjects in response to left median nerve stimulation. SEFs were obtained in all subjects after oral admi...
