title: Regular stripe-like activation and suppression of metabolic activity in the cerebellar cortex following apomorphine administration to haloperidol-pretreated rats.
abstract: Alteration of the pattern of metabolic activity in the cerebellar cortex, as produced by apomorphine in rats given chronic pretreatment with haloperidol was studied by means of the [14C]deoxyglucose method. Apomorphine induced a regular stripe-like activation and suppression of metabolic activity in the caudal paravermal area of the cerebellar hemisphere and in the caudal vermis of the cerebellar cortex. This stripe-like pattern, oriented perpendicularly to the cerebellar fissure, suggests the functional organization of the cerebellar cortex in a direction which is parallel to the longitudinal axis of folia.
