[Role of the motor area of the cortex in the performance of the postural escape reaction].
It has been shown on three dogs that unilateral ablation of the cortical motor area temporally disturbs previously acquired and opposite to the innate postural escape reaction to electric stimulation of the contralateral forepaw by increasing its pressure on the support. After 3-4 months of repeated training, compensation is possible. Bilateral ablation of the motor cortex elicits stable and unreversible disturbance of the acquired reaction. In reorganization of postural coordinations, motor cortex functions are connected with the inhibition of innate coordinations preventing performance of the reaction.
