  • Title: [Long-lasting changes of irritability in the somatosensory cortex of rabbits following tetanic stimulation of the tooth pulp].
    Author: Krug M, Schmidt J.
    Journal: Acta Biol Med Ger; 1975; 34(1):135-41. PubMed ID: 1179917.
    Abstract:
    Tetanic stimulation of the tooth pulp produced long lasting increases in potentials released by stimulation of the tooth pulp with single stimuli in the sensomotor cortex of rabbits. Stimulation with 200 impulses/sec for 5 sec produced changes of irritability that are demonstrable for 10-50 min depending on the intensity of stimulation. The lower rate limit for producing such changes is 25 impulses/sec. At a rate of 200 impulses/sec, a stimulation time of 25 msec was necessary to produce these changes. The postexcitatory depression occuring after single stimuli within 10-40 msec was increased by tetanic stimulation, whereas facilitation observed 5 msec after single stimuli was unaffected.
