[Role of endogenous neurohumoral factors in mechanisms of the pathogenesis and compensation of unilateral movement disorders after serial removal of the motor neocortex].

The role of neurohumoral factors in the mechanisms of restoring the lost motor functions after two successive unilateral removals of the neocortex motor region, was studied. The dynamics of the restoring correlated with the posture asymmetry factor (PAF) activity in the CSF. PAF activity was reduced during the restoring by an inactivation factor (FI). Periods of restoration after the 2nd extirpation and inactivation of PAF were shorter than after the 1st one. The existence of the FI before the 2nd extirpation may account for this phenomenon.
