Abstract

In chronic experiments on 20 mongrel male rats of pubertate age (3 months), we studied the electrical activity of the structures of the limbico-neocortical system and reactions of self-stimulation of the positive emotiogenic zones in the ventralateral hypothalamus under conditions of addiction to vapors of an organic solvent, No. 646. It is shown that the state of addiction to inhalant vapors results in modifications of behavioral reactions, modulation of electrical activity in the neocortex, hippocampus, and medial olfactory region with increases in the powers of some spectral components, and intensification of the reaction of self-stimulation of the positive emotiogenic zones in the ventralateral hypothalamus.
