Abstract
The theoretical article aims to develop knowledge about the modulation of shared intentionality at the cellular level. A hypothesis about the neurobiological processes during shared intentionality argues that this pre-perceptual communication occurs through nonlocal neuronal coupling in an ecosystem that can be described as the mother-fetus communication model. The current theoretical study analyses literature to discuss recent findings on the effect of oscillations on neuronal temporal coordination to verify whether external low-frequency oscillations can only synchronize specific local neuronal networks from peripheral and central nervous subsystems for modulating shared intentionality. The review discusses 4 findings. First, gamma oscillations are associated with the temporal coordination of local ensembles of cells. Second, there is a relationship between low-frequency brain oscillations and the temporal coordination of peripheral and central nervous subsystems. Third, delta oscillations influence neuronal activity by modulating gamma activity. Fourth, external delta and gamma oscillations increase cortical excitability. The article concludes that delta oscillations can modulate gamma oscillations in the different subsystems of the nervous system, providing temporal network coordination. An external low-frequency oscillator can coordinate only relevant local neuronal networks in various subsystems already exhibiting gamma activity.
