title: [The mechanism of interaction between the thalamic posterior lateral nucleus and the sensomotor cortex in rabbits].
abstract: The thalamic posterior lateral nucleus was shown to exert phasic and tonic effects on the function of sensomotor cortex: the former in the form of pulvinar-cortical responses, and the latter in the form of foci of increased or decreased excitability. The findings suggest an inhibitory tonic effect of the sensomotor cortex on neuronal network of the posterior lateral nucleus.
