    Abstract:
    In acute experiments on immobilized unanesthetized cod, the effect of electrical stimulation of different brain structures on electrical activity of smooth muscle of the alimentary tract was investigated. Stimulation of the lateral telencephalon and tectum with trains of square pulses (0.1 - 0.5 mA, 2 msec, 300 Hz) depressed the tonic and peristaltic gastrointestinal motility. Stimulation of the rostral area of cerebellum and medulla oblongata intensified the gastric and intestinal emptying. The effect was found to depend on the level of spontaneous motor activity of the stomach and intestine.
