[ERG changes caused by stimulation of the reticular formation of the mesencephalon]. 1980

V Oswald, and E Emmerich

During stimulation of the Formatio reticularis mesencephali by different intensities in awake rabbits three types of the ERG were observed. During and 20 min after subthreshold stimulation (no alteration in the hippocampal EEG) the b-wave of the ERG was enhanced. However, the b-wave amplitude was diminished during stimulation and enhanced 20 min after stimulus application when the stimulus intensity evoked a hippocampal theta-rhythm of 5-7 waves/s. During and 20 min after RFm stimulation with the highest stimulus intensity which evoked a hippocampal theta-rhythm of 7-8 waves/s the b-wave was diminished.

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.

D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D012119 Respiration The act of breathing with the LUNGS, consisting of INHALATION, or the taking into the lungs of the ambient air, and of EXHALATION, or the expelling of the modified air which contains more CARBON DIOXIDE than the air taken in (Blakiston's Gould Medical Dictionary, 4th ed.). This does not include tissue respiration ( Breathing
D012154 Reticular Formation A region extending from the PONS & MEDULLA OBLONGATA through the MESENCEPHALON, characterized by a diversity of neurons of various sizes and shapes, arranged in different aggregations and enmeshed in a complicated fiber network.
