title: [Rhythmical electrical activity in the cat stellate ganglion during postnatal ontogenesis].
abstract: Electrical activity of the stellate ganglion was studied in newborn, 10-, 20-, 30-day-old, two- and six-month-old kittens using the spectral analysis. The development of sympathetic activity patterns was different during ontogenesis. The amplitude of discharges increased from the period of birth until the second month of kittens' life. In newborn and 10-day-old kittens, synchronous discharges of postganglionic fibers were represented by slow and low frequency impulses with frequencies of breathing and heart rate. ppears in 20-day-old kittens. The formation of the sympathetic discharge patterns ends at the second month of animals life.
