Abstract
Presentation of sensory stimuli of various modalities to rats immediately before their decapitation led to a significant increase in the level of succinate dehydrogenase in the hippocampus, the magnitude of the increase being dependent on the number of stimuli presented. In each individual case, this enzyme's activity was proportional to the amplitude of the population spike recorded in the hippocampus of the same rat. An inverse relationship was noted between the rate of plastic processes in the hippocampus upon rhythmic stimulation and succinate dehydrogenase activity.
