[Neuronal activity of the midbrain central grey upon stimulation of the amygdaloid complex and the subthalamus]. 1978

N I Dubrovina, and R Iu Il'iuchenok

The influence of stimulation of the amygdaloid complex and the subthalamus on neuronal activity of the central grey substance were studied in acute experiments on rats. The amygdaloid stimulation produced inhibition in 72% of the central grey substance neurons; stimulation of subthalamus--activation in 59%. Repetitive stimulation of the amygdaloid complex evoked prolonged changes in the neuronal activity. The convergence of impulses from the amygdaloid complex and subthalamus was observed in 31 of 114 reactive neurons. 71% of cells showed inhibition.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008636	Mesencephalon	The middle of the three primitive cerebral vesicles of the embryonic brain. Without further subdivision, midbrain develops into a short, constricted portion connecting the PONS and the DIENCEPHALON. Midbrain contains two major parts, the dorsal TECTUM MESENCEPHALI and the ventral TEGMENTUM MESENCEPHALI, housing components of auditory, visual, and other sensorimoter systems.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013681	Tegmentum Mesencephali	Portion of midbrain situated under the dorsal TECTUM MESENCEPHALI. The two ventrolateral cylindrical masses or peduncles are large nerve fiber bundles providing a tract of passage between the FOREBRAIN with the HINDBRAIN. Ventral MIDBRAIN also contains three colorful structures: the GRAY MATTER (PERIAQUEDUCTAL GRAY), the black substance (SUBSTANTIA NIGRA), and the RED NUCLEUS.
