Description/Abstract | Male white mice were exposed to electroshock and then injected intravenously with 5-(3H)uridine immediately after the shock.^After 5, 30, or 60 min or 6, 12, or 24 h, the mice were killed, microautoradiographs were prepared, and grains were counted in the cortex, hippocampus, and basal ganglia.^The results of the grain counts were compared with grain counts in the cortex, hippocampus, and basal ganglia of mice exposed to anoxia for 25 s and then treated in the same manner as the first groups.^After electroshock the grain count decreased to 25% of that in control animals in the hippocampus and to 50% in the cortex but was normal in the basal ganglia.^The counts returned to normal values within 6 h in the hippocampus, and within 1 h in the cortex.^After anoxia, the grain counts were normal in the cortex and hippocampus but increased in the basal ganglia.^The distribution of cells with a high or low grain count in vertical and horizontal columns of the cortex in control and convulsion animals was analyzed.^There were random variations from column to column in both control and convulsion animals.^In some anatomic layers there were significantly different grain counts, indicating differences in functional activity. |
