Effective facilitation of the scratch reflex was observed in experiments on recently decerebrated and spinal cats in response to application of strychnine solution to the dorsal surface of the spinal cord. The receptive fields of the scratch reflex in this case depended on the segments to which the strychnine was applied. The receptive fields of a scratch reflex evoked by D-tubocurarine coincided with those of the intact adult animals, but the receptive fields for strychnine application were wider and corresponded to those of the scratch reflex in kittens [1, 10]. It is suggested that strychnine application abolishes the inhibition of the afferent inputs of the scratch reflex in the lower cervical segments of the spinal cord which has developed during ontogeny. |
