  • Title: [Neuronal activity in self-stimulation zones of the hypothalamus in motivational and emotional states induced by electrical and natural stimuli].

    Abstract:
    Study of neuronal activity in hypothalamus areas of self-stimulation in rats showed two types of neurones. Some of them had an increased frequency at food and water deprivation and they had maximum activation at current stimulation, eliciting motivational behaviour. Others had maximum activation at current level, eliciting self-stimulation effects, some of these neurones had positive activating relation to satisfaction of food requirements. The obtained data are considered as morphofunctional substrate of motivational and emotional states.
