Sophisticated tongue movements contribute to speech and mastication. These movements are regulated by communication between the bilateral cortex and each tongue side. The functional connection between the cortex and tongue was investigated using oscillatory interactions between whole-head magnetoencephalographic (MEG) signals and electromyographic (EMG) signals from both tongue sides during human tongue protrusion compared to thumb data. MEG-EMG coherence was observed at 14-36Hz and 2-10Hz over both hemispheres for each tongue side. EMG-EMG coherence between tongue sides was also detected at the same frequency bands. Thumb coherence was detected at 15-33Hz over the contralateral hemisphere. Tongue coherence at 14-36Hz was larger over the contralateral vs. ipsilateral hemisphere for both tongue sides. Tongue cortical sources were located in the lower part of the central sulcus and were anterior and inferior to the thumb areas, agreeing with the classical homunculus. Cross-correlogram analysis showed the MEG signal preceded the EMG signal. The cortex-tongue time lag was shorter than the cortex-thumb time lag. The cortex-muscle time lag decreased systematically with distance. These results suggest that during tongue protrusions, descending motor commands are modulated by bilateral cortical oscillations, and each tongue side is dominated by the contralateral hemisphere.
