| مستخلص: | Parallel electrophysiological and anatomical tracing studies on the projections from the hippocampal formation to the ventral striatum in the cat, were carried out with the aim of defining the nature and organization of the motor interfaces of the limbic cortex. In this context the main pathway was found to be that from the subiculum to the N. Accumbens; electrophysiological characteristics of this pathway are reported in the present study. This well organized pathway is primarily of an excitatory nature and consists of slow conducting fibers (1–2 ms-1). Three types of response patterns of single Accumbens units to subicular stimulation were found: units which responded with a burst of action potentials (the majority); units which responded with iterative bursting; units responding primarily with an inhibition of firing. Often the primary excitatory response was followed by a decrease in firing rate. |
