[Effect of activating the putamen on alimentary conditioned reflexes in dogs].

The influence was studied of the near-threshold high- and low-frequency stimulation of the putamen on achievement of alimentary conditioned reflexes in dogs. Both low- and high-frequency activation of the examined structure significantly changes the parameters of intermediate secretion, of the salivary conditioned reflexes, without influencing unconditioned ones. Unilateral stimulation disturbs the achievement of positive and inhibitory conditioned reflexes to a greater extent than bilateral one. Difference between the effects of low- and high-frequency stimulation has been revealed.
