Abstract

Cortical and subcortical electrical activity was recorded during chronic emotional stress in cats and the state of thyroid function determined. Correlation was found between the functional state of the CNS and the level of thyroxine secretion. The trigger role of the posterior hypothalamic nucleus in the genesis of hypersynchronized activity in stress was demonstrated.
