Abstract
Rats with catatonic freezing are characterized by low motor and explorative activity in the open field test and specific pattern of external respiration, so-called strenuous respiration, which is accompanied by a higher activity of the respiratory enzymes succinate dehydrogenase and NADH dehydrogenase in the hippocampus and motor cortex. No dependencies on the brain structure and animal age are noted.
