Abstract:
Whisker stimulation in rats was found to increase the local cerebral blood flow (lCBF), its SD and to damp slow oscillations. It was established that lCBF drops slightly within a few seconds after the stimulus onset. The data obtained suggest that lCBF evoked sensory stimulation changes are distinctly localized in different layers of the somatosensory cortex.
