[email protected] Abstract: Background: Tics in Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) resemble fragments of normal motor behaviour but appear in an intrusive, repetitive and context‐ inappropriate manner. Although tics can be voluntarily inhibited on demand, the neural correlates of this process remain unclear. Methods: 14 GTS adults without relevant comorbidities participated in this study. First, tic severity and voluntary tic inhibitory capacity were evaluated outside the scanner. Second, patients were examined with resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (RS‐fMRI) in two states, free ticcing and voluntary tic inhibition. Local synchronization of spontaneous fMRI‐signal was analyzed with regional homogeneity (ReHo) and differences between both states

Highlights ‐ Tics resemble voluntary actions but appear exaggerated and out of context ‐ Tics can be voluntarily inhibited but the mechanisms behind this remain unclear ‐ Resting state fMRI was employed to elucidate the neural correlates of tic inhibition ‐ The left inferior frontal gyrus was identified as a key‐area in tic inhibition ‐ Premonitory urges were unrelated to the neural signature of tic inhibition
