Summary

Electric stimulation of the anterolateral hypothalamic area in 2 dogs with implanted electrodes provoked a marked rise in food excitability. The animal ate even when it was completely full.

Direct stimulation of the subcortical food center in the hypopthalamic area temporarily eliminated one of the characteristic symptoms of experimental neuroses—the animal's refusal to eat. Electrode implantation into the subcortical food center in the hypothalamic area of the animal with food conditioned reflexes was regarded as an adequate model for studying the interrelations of the brain cortex and subcortical formations.
