Abstract
Protein content was measured by interferometry in the cerebral neurons of August rats predisposed to emotional stress and Wistar rats resistant to it. Protein content was 16–18% lower in the neurons of the third and fourth layers of the sensorimotor cortex and 51% higher in the caudate nucleus neurons (cerebral subcortical nodes) of August rats than in Wistar rats. This indicates an inversion in protein distribution in the cortex and subcortex of August rats which are characterized by typical protein content in different types of neurons and apparently by peculiar cerebral structure and function.
