  • Title: [Feeding behavior of the cat in response to stimulation of the caudate nucleus].
    Author: Gravante G, Sorbera F, Sabatino M, La Grutta V.
    Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1985 Feb 28; 61(2):249-54. PubMed ID: 3994844.
    Abstract:
    In chronic free-moving cats unilateral, low frequency, long duration stimulation of the caudate nucleus causes a significant reduction of food intake. The effects are greatest at the beginning of the stimulation. On cessation of stimulation the animals take enough food to compensate for that lost during the time of stimulation. Results are discussed either considering interrelationships between striatum and lateral hypothalamus, either regarding recent viewpoints distinguishing two striatal compartments: dorsal or "non limbic" striatal region and ventral or "limbic" striatal region.
