[Neuronal activity of the cat visual cortex during the sleep--wakefulness cycle].

The changes in background neuronal activity of the visual cortex during the sleep-waking cycle were studied in the dark adapted chronic cats. Neither pattern nor frequency of discharges of the investigated cells were significantly different in waking state and paradoxical sleep. The interspike interval histograms and autocorrelograms were used to evaluate the changes in the patterns of cell discharges. Slow sleep differs noticeably from the wakening state and paradoxical sleep due to the burst-pause pattern appearance in cell discharges.

Unit activity in the cat visual cortex in the sleep--waking cycle.

Changes in spontaneous unit activity in the primary visual cortex during the sleep-waking cycle were studied in chronic experiments on dark-adapted cats. In the cell poulation studied activity in states of wakefulness and of paradoxical sleep did not differ significantly either in mean discharge frequency or in pattern. Activity of most cells in a state of slow sleep differed significantly from that in states of wakefulness and paradoxical sleep by the development of a "burst-pause" pattern in the unit discharges.
