[Disorder of gamma-motor neuronal activity in experimental thyrotoxicosis].

The activity of gamma-motor neurons was studied in the anesthetized rats following per os administration of thyroidin for 3 weeks. In experimental thyrotoxicosis against the backgrounds of an increased amount of mute filaments isolated from the stem of the n. gastrocnemius there was an increase in the frequency of discharge of the flexors and extensors of the gamma-motor neurons. A high frequency not peculiar to that of intact animals was recorded in the flexors of the gamma-motor neurons of the animals receiving thyroidin.
