title: [Postsynaptic excitation and inhibition in neurons of the general cortex of turtles during presentation of moving stimuli].
abstract: Reactions to moving stimuli were studied in the turtle general cortex. The evoked potentials, synaptic nature of their components and mechanism of their generation were analysed. The evoked potentials was negative-positive. The negative part consisted of fast negative complexes and a slow negative wave. These negative components reflected EPSP generated in the dendrites of the main cortex neurons. A rhythmical oscillation in the evoked potential started after the initial fast negative complex. The negative waves of this oscillation reflected EPSP and the positive waves, IPSP being generated also in the dendrites of the main cortex neurons. They had probably a recurrent generation mechanism. The positive wave of the evoked potential reflected dendritic IPSP in the main neurons.
