The effect of central stimulation on minor tremor (MT) was studied with unanesthetized rabbits. The same set of electrodes which were implanted into various areas of the brain were used for recording and stimulation. MT was induced from the m. gluteus maximus with a special pickup.
1. Hippocampul arousal gave little effect on MT; hippocampul seizure had no effect on MT.
2. Acceleration of MT was observed with stimulation of the motor cortex, thalamus and reticular formation.
3. Inhibition of MT was seen upon stimulation of the anterior and posterior hypothalamus suggesting that the temperature regulating mechanism may play an important role in MT.
