[Changes in the neuronal activity of the lateral geniculate bodies upon stimulation of the motivational centers of the hypothalamus].
In experiments on immobilized unanesthetized cats it was found that electrical stimulation of anterior hypothalamic areas and lateral hypothalamus causes predominantly a suppression of background activity of lateral geniculate neurons. Changes of light evoked activity were mostly of modulating character. During stimulation of the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus a predominance of activating changes in background activity of lateral geniculate neurons was observed.
