Abstract
It is shown that epinephrine when applied locally to the cerebral cortex leads to stimulation of neuronal aggregates in the cerebral cortex. The local effect is marked by an increase in duration and intensity of the period of over-excitation subsequent to a stimulus eliciting movement, and it is characterized by the appearance of after-discharges of cortex and muscle after stimuli just sufficient to produce movement.Keywords
