Abstract

The results of cytochemical cytometry of rat brain suggest that a 9-day exposure of rats to microgravitation conditions lowers the activity of monoaminoxidase in the fibrous structures of layer V of the somatosensory cortex and in the head ofnucleus caudatus, as well as the activity of acetylcholine esterase in the bodies of neurons forming the head ofn. caudatus.
