Abstract:
Certain shifts in activities of some cerebral structures were found to depend on the stage of the sleep-wakefulness cycle and the type of the CNS pathology in Wistar rats with genetic predisposition to catalepsy or audiogenic seizures. The findings suggest participation of the caudate nucleus in regulation of the cycle through modulation of thalamo-cortical and hypothalamo-paleocortical integration during slow-wave sleep, the cortex-striatum system revealing its high compensatory abilities.
