Galvanotropism and "reversal of Inhibition" by Strychnine
The cathodically galvanotropic orientation of nemerteans, Lineus, and the anodic orientation of the gephyrean Echiurus, are reversed by the action of strychnine under conditions such that the typical "reversal of inhibition" induced by this substance is apparent. Nicotine does not give this result. Since it is necessary to assume that the strychnine effect is due to action upon the central gang...
متن کاملObservations Upon Cerebellar Convulsive Activity Induced by Strychnine ‡§
For many years one of Professor John Fulton's major interests in neurophysiology has been the interpretation of cerebellar activity. His many contributions to the relationship of cerebellum and cerebrum have clarified the integration of the motor systems. The presentation of certain experimental findings concerning "convulsive" cerebellar activity would seem, then, to be appropriate on Professo...
متن کاملReversal of Reaction by Means of Strychnine in Planarians and Starfish
Two cases have been described, that of the marine planarian Bdelloura and that of the starfish Asterias forbesii, in which strychnine reverses reciprocal inhibition. These facts indicate that the nervous systems of these invertebrates function in a manner similar to those of the earthworm and vertebrates. Moreover, it would seem that strychnine acts upon some chemical component of the neuron wh...
متن کاملStrychnine and Memory Process
feedback training can lead to large and significant changes in alpha densities when conditions have lowered alpha density below the levels seen spontaneously under optimal conditions. Subjects can acquire volitional control over alpha activity only under conditions which normally lead to decreased densities. Thus, during the initial orientation in the dark, when subjects experiment, but are not...
متن کاملStrychnine in Fever
Sin,?Mr. Hall, of the Royal Artillery, in the last number of the Gazette, calls attention to the use of strychnine as a substitute for quinine in the treatment of malarious fevers, and " has never yet met with any mention, in books, of this medicine having been given as a substitute for quinine." In the Year Book of the new Sydenham Society for 1862, at page 51, there will be found a record of ...
