This study examined the relationship of single-neuron activity (n = 739), recorded from the lateral striatum of freely moving rats, to oral movements involved in licking single drops of liquid. Certain neurons (n = 74) fired specifically in relation to licking. Their firing rates increased during li
Microinjections of the excitatory amino acid, L-glutamate into the cholinergic cell compartment of the pedunculopontine tegmentum (PPT) of the rat induces both wakefulness and/or rapid eye movement (REM) sleep depending on the glutamate dosage. However, no studies have systematically recorded the el
## Abstract A new method for measuring the uptake of materials labeled with radioactive phosphorus (^32^P) in the brain of a freely moving rat is described. The rat of uptake in the brain of a single animal of ^32^Pβlabeled phosphate was compared to the uptake rate in the animal's blood or liver. A
