Abstract

To characterize the medullary temperature-responsive neurones in rabbits, statistical analysis of interspike intervals was performed on 24 neurones recorded at various temperatures of the medulla. It was found that the medullary neurone fired at a relatively regular interval and 11 of 24 neurones displayed an invariable precision in thermoreception over a broad range of medullary temperatures; also, that the temporal distribution of interspike intervals of medullary neurones was markedly different from that of hypothalamic neurones.
