  • Title: A study of the feeding and social behaviour of the "Macacus rhesus" monkey after direct electrical stimulation and telestimulation of different points of the amygdala and the hippocampus.
    Author: Giammanco S, Delgado MJ, Paderni MA, Carollo A.
    Journal: Arch Fisiol; 1973 Dec; 70(3-4):243-69. PubMed ID: 4220102.
    Abstract:
    We examined first the behavior of a single animal (Macacus Rhesus), partially free to move on a Brady chair, before and after direct electrical stimulation of the amygdala and the hippocampus; then the social behavior of two animals, completely free to move in a large behavioral cage, before and after stimulation, by radio, of the amygdala. Certain ventromedial areas of the amygdala have a short and long term inhibitory effect on feeding and social behavior and the hippocampus has a short and long term facilitating effect on feeding behavior, especially during the after discharge.
