  • Title: [Effect of early motor training on evoked potentials of rat brain visual and sensomotor cortex].
    Author: Volokhov AA, Shimko IA.
    Journal: Zh Vyssh Nerv Deiat Im I P Pavlova; 1978; 28(6):1288-96. PubMed ID: 735392.
    Abstract:
    Motor training (during 3-6 months) of rats in a treadmill started at the age of 1 month, leads to statistically significant increase in the activity of neuronal populations in the visual cortex judged by both latencies of primary responses and recovery cycles of responses to paired stimuli. It has been found that the significance of functional changes following locomotor training is more manifest in the recovery cycles than in the latencies of primary responses. The comparison of locomotor training effects in the visual cortex with those in the sensorimotor cortex reveals a more pronounced modulating influence of environment on the visual cortex. However the differences in these functional changes are more evident by absolute (msec) than by relative (%) cues.
