[Plastic changes in the intact cerebral cortex resulting from local damage to its symmetrical section].

Representation of the radial nerve in symmetrical area of the opposite hemisphere was studied in cats using the recording of focal potentials within 1.5-1.8 months after electrolytic destruction of the associative parietal cortex. Increasing of the radial nerve representation area occurred within 3-4 months after the operation. The activity of lactatdehydrogenase and malatdehydrogenase, as well as the spectrum of the lactatdehydrogenase isoenzymes, were studied during the same period.
