title: [Distribution of specific signals of different modality in the associative parietal area of the cat cortex].
abstract: In cats under nembutal anesthesia eliciting specific early components of association responses, the drug parietal distribution upon forepaw and thalamic stimulation was studied: relay somatic-ventrobasal complex (VB) and association nuclei, transmitting specific visual impulses in pulvinar (Pul) and lateral-posterior (LP) areas. Signals of maximum intensity were observed in response to peripheral and central stimulation near somatic area and in response to Pul and LP stimulation in the medial part of parietal cortex. Besides, a general principle revealing more intensive signals of different modality in the areas near lateral sulcus than in other parietal areas was established. The difference in processing of specific polysensory signals in various parietal areas and consequently, different involvement of the latter into the systemic action of the brain was proved, this being related to the character of topical organization of these signals.
