Abstract

The effect of substantia nigra stimulation on duodeno-jejunal intraluminal pressure and electrical activity was analysed in the cat. An inhibitory influence was noted to occur on both the intestinal pressure and the electrical response activity (ERA): the effect seemed to be in correlation with the stimulus parameters employed. After bilateral vagotomy, the inhibition remained substantially unchanged. The possibility of the existence of a sympathetic pathway mediating the effect is emphasized.
