Abstract
AbstractDepth recordings with microelectrodes have revealed that transection of the specific projection pathways in the spinal cord induces regular slow waves with a frequency of 8–12 waves per second in the parts of the somatosensory areas SI and SII corresponding to the projection from below the level of the lesion. Surface recordings showed an increased spindle activity in the same areas. The slow wave activity occurs at various depths of Nembutal anesthesia. There is evidence that the appearance of slow waves after interruption of the specific pathways is a general phenomenon in the specific projection cortical areas.
