[The astrocytic glia in the motor cortex during acetylcholine application].
1% acetylcholine (5.5 10 M--acetylcholine chloride) applied directly to the cortex of conscious non-immobilized rabbits was established to produce neuroglial reaction in motor area. Following 30 min long application the number of astrocytes was significantly increased. Application lasting for 2 hrs resulted in a reverse effect. The above-mentioned changes were observed in surface and deep cortical layers. They were functional and could be attributed to the cell tinctorial properties.
