Abstract

The network relationships of neocortical neurons in rabbits with a defensive dominant in the CNS were studied in conditions of calm waking and during the intervals between presentations of light stimuli testing the dominant. Statistical analysis of spike trains extracted from multineuron traces allowed detection of differences in the functional organization of neurons in the excitation focus (sensorimotor cortex) and the representation area of the stimulus testing it (visual cortex) in calm waking before triggering of effector reactions and before missed reactions. These experiments yielded data on the different roles of sensorimotor cortex cells responding and not responding to light stimuli in the network activity of the areas of cortex studied.
