Abstract
The effect of 40, 90, and 120-day hypokinesia and nonstressful hypokinesia on the ultrastructure of cingular convolution, motor and frontal-parietal areas of rat cortex were investigated. Differences were found only in the ultrastructure of cingular convolution after hypokinesic stress. In each area both procedures led to a decrease in the number and variety of spike and axospike synapses.
