[Functional and morphologic characteristics of limbic cortex maturation during early ontogenesis].
Development of the limbic cortical area in postnatal ontogenesis of the rabbit comprises three periods judging by the parameters of impulse activity of neurones and cytoarchitectonic differentiation. The period of stratification and beginning of cellular differentiation functionally corresponds to the manifestation of simple forms of spike activity (single, group) with long inactivation periods (the first week of life). The period of intensive cytoarchitectonic differentiation with separation of the agranular type of the anterior limbic area structure correlates with a more complex neuronal impulse activity (burst discharges), augmenting spectrum of dominating spike frequencies, predominance of phasic activation and specific responses together with a high total neuronal responsiveness to sensory (acoustic) stimuli (the second to third week of life). The period of complete cytoarchitectonic maturation corresponds to the stabilization of functional properties of neurones (the fourth to sixth week of life). The revealed ontogenetic dynamics of morpho-functional reorganizations in the limbic cortex point to its involvement at an early stage of postnatal life in the mechanisms of sensory analysis and of the formation of adequate adaptive reactions.
