[Influence of the limbic cortex on lymph flow in dogs during ontogenesis].

In acute experiments on puppies from the age of 1 day to 6 months, the influence of the anterior limbic area of the cortex on the lymph-flow in the thoracic duct was studied. Electrical stimulation of the anterior limbic area of the cortex in 1-7 days old puppies did not change neither the lymph-flow, nor the arterial pressure. Beginning with the age of 8-9 days, a decrease of the lymph-flow and a rise in the arterial pressure following electrical stimulation were noted.
