Abstract
The effect of stereotaxic administration of tremorine and oxotremorine into four brain areas has been investigated using rats. Tremorine produced tremor significantly higher than control after administration into the globus pallidus, caudate nucleus, and substantia nigra. Oxotremorine produced tremor significantly higher than control only after injection into the substantia nigra. Dyflos injected into the caudate nucleus produced tremor. No change in the tremorgenic action of tremorine was observed after the simultaneous intracaudate injections of atropine and tremorine, and dyflos and tremorine. Intraperitoneal atropine reduced the tremorgenic action of an intracaudate injection of tremorine.
