title: [Monoamine oxidase activity in rabbit brain nuclei in experimental acute emotional stress].
abstract: Activity of monoamine oxidase in the neurons of catecholamine-synthesizing nuclei of hypothalamic and brainstem of rabbits with different resistance of cardiovascular functions to emotional stress was studied by the Glenner et al. method. An acute experimental emotional stress was induced by non-periodic electric stimulation of the hypothalamic ventromedial nucleus and the skin in immobilized adult chinchilla rabbits. It was found that monoamine oxidase activity in the neurons of groups A5, A6, A7 and A14 under acute experimental emotional stress increased in rabbits "resistant"to stress and remained unchanged in rabbits "predisposed" to stress. The activity of monoamine oxidase in the neurons of group A12 remained unchanged in the rabbits "resistant"to stress and decreased in the rabbit "predisposed" to stress.
