We tested the hypothesis that specific frequency components of the spontaneous local field potentials (LFPs) underlie low frequency fluctuations of resting state fMRI (rsfMRI) signals. Our previous analyses of rsfMRI signals revealed differential inter-regional correlations among areas 3a, 3b and 1 of primary somatosensory cortex (S1) in anesthetized monkeys. Here we examined which LFP band(s) correlated between S1 regions, and how these inter-regional correlation differences covaried with rsfMRI signals. LFP signals were filtered into seven bands (delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma low, gamma high, gamma very high), and then a Hilbert transformation was applied to obtain measures of instantaneous amplitudes and temporal lags between regions of interest (ROI) digit-digit pairs (areas 3b-area 1, area 3a-area 1, area 3a-area 3b) and digit-face pairs (area 3b-face, area 1-face, and area 3a-face). We found variations in the inter-regional correlation strengths between digit-digit and digit-face pairs in the delta (1–4 Hz), alpha (9–14 Hz), beta (15–30 Hz), and gamma (31–50 Hz) bands parallel those of rsfMRI signals to varying degrees. Temporal lags between digit-digit area pairs varied across LFP bands, with area 3a mostly leading areas 1/2 and 3b. In summary, our data demonstrate that the low and middle frequency range (1–50 Hz) of spontaneous LFP signals similarly covary with the low frequency fluctuations of rsfMRI signals within local circuits of S1, supporting a neuronal electrophysiological basis of rsfMRI signals. Inter-areal LFP temporal lag differences provided novel insights into the directionality of information flow among S1 areas at rest.
