Spontaneous and evoked unit activity in the anterior limbic cortex in response to stimulation of the splanchnic and sciatic nerves and of the mammillary region of the hypothalamus were recorded extracellularly in acute experiments on cats. The study of heterogeneous transsynaptic influence on limbic cortical neurons showed that in the presence of effective sensory viscerosomatic convergence, weak convergence of influences from the central hypothalamic and peripheral sources took place. Short-latency responses of limbic cortical neurons to stimulation of the mammillary bodies consisted of orthodromic and antidromic responses, evidence of the existence of short two-way connections between the anterior limbic cortex and mammillary nuclei of the hypothalamus.L.

Using extracellular recording of spike activity from single neurons of field 21a of the cat neocortex, we examined in detail
the spatial organization of receptive fields (RFs) of such cells after conditions of presentation of an immobile blinking
light spot (a static RF) and moving visual stimuli (dynamic RFs). As was shown, the excitability of different RF subfields
of a group of neurons possessing homogeneous on–off organization of the static RF changes significantly depended on the contrast, shape, dimension, orientation, and direction
of movement of the applied mobile visual stimulus. This is manifested in changes in the number of discharge centers and shifts
of their spatial localization. A hypothesis on the possible role of synchronous activation of the neurons neighboring the
cell under study in the formation of an additional neuronal mechanism providing specialization of neuronal responses is proposed. 相似文献

We studied the responses of neurons of the extrastriate cortical area 21b of the cat to changes in orientation of the movements of visual stimuli within the receptive field (RF) of the neuron under study. Our experiments demonstrated that 24 of 108 cells (22%) responded differentially to a certain extent to orientation of the movements of visual stimuli. As a whole, neurons of the area 21b did not demonstrate fine tuning on the optimum angle of orientation. In many cases, neuronal responses to different orientations of the movement of visual stimulus depended significantly on specific parameters of this stimulus (its shape, dimensions, and contrast). Some directionally sensitive neurons responded to a change in orientation of the movement of visual stimuli by modification of the index of directionality. We also studied spatial organization of the RF of neurons with the presentation of stationary visual stimuli. Comparison of the neuronal responses to a change in orientation of the movements of stimuli and to presentation of stationary stimuli showed that the correlation between the orientation sensitivity of the neuron under study and the stationary functional organization of its RF was insignificant. We hypothesize that inhibitory processes and subthreshold influences from a space surrounding the RF play a special role in the formation of the neuronal responses generated in the associative visual cortical regions to visual stimulation. 相似文献

On cats with pretrigeminal brainstem transection, we studied the properties of visually sensitive neurons of the extrastriate associative cortical area 21b. The dimensions and spatial distribution of the receptive fields (RF) of the neurons within the vision field were determined. It was found that large-sized RF prevailed within the area 21b (10 to 200 deg2, 61%; greater than 200 deg2, 22%), whereas small-sized RF (1 to 10 deg2) constituted 17% of all the studied RF. Stationary visual stimuli evoked on–off, off, and on responses in 43, 30, and 27% neurons of the area 21b, respectively. In the cases where moving stimuli were presented, 35% of the neurons demonstrated directional sensitivity; the rest of the neurons (65%) were directionally insensitive. We also found a group of neurons that were capable of differentiating not only the direction of the stimulus movement along the RF but also the dimension, shape, and orientation of a complicated moving stimulus. Taking into account the data obtained, we discuss the functional role of the neurons, which demonstrated a specific (specialized with respect to a set of the parameters of visual stimulus, and not to a single parameter) response in central processing of the sensory information. 相似文献

In acute experiments on cats we investigated evoked potentials from the cingulate gyrus developed in response to stimulation of somatic and visceral nerves; also potentials from various parts of the hypothalamus, and midbrain reticular formation. We showed that the nonspecific afferent system influences electrical activity in the limbic cortex through hypothalamic pathways. We consider the limbic cortex to be part of the association area of the neocortex and that the associative responses of the cortex are more complex in nature than is usually thought to be the case, and that they are formed under the influence of impulses arriving at the cortex along many specific and nonspecific pathways. The hypothalamo—cingulate system is one of the main systems of cortico—subcortical integration. It plays an important part in regulation of autonomic, somatic, and emotional responses.L. A.

We studied the structure of receptive fields (RF) in the visually sensitive CA1 and CA3 fields of the dorsal hippocampus in alert cats subjected to pretrigeminal section of the brain stem. Scanning with moving stimuli and mapping the whole RF area with point by point application of a stationary stimulus, we studied 76 RF neurons. We found no significant differences in the response characteristics of neurons of fields CA1 and CA3. Our data are a basis for classifying the neurons in the following groups: homogeneous RF structure of the RF (54%) and nonhomogeneous structure (28%) and weak reaction to the standard stimulus, but a strong reaction to movement (18%). The results showed that responses of some of the hippocampal neurons exhibit high specificity. Thus, 9% of the neurons with nonhomogeneous RF structure disclosed with static stimuli reacted variously to a change in contrast and contours of moving stimuli. The data presented indicate that visually sensitive neurons of the hippocamus have a relatively well-developed mechanism for processing visual sensory information and this obviously ensures participation of the limbic system in visually controlled behavior of the animal.Institute of Experimental Biology, Academy of Sciences of the Armenian SSR, Yerevan.
