Intracellular recordings have been obtained from hippocampal neurons of anesthetized cats for the purpose of testing the current model of the mammalian central neuron, derived from studies of the spinal motoneuron, in a cortical nonmotor cell. On the basis of their response to antidromic stimulation the impaled cells were classified as identified pyramidal and unidentified cells. Both groups have similar properties. The rising phase of the hippocampal neuron spike has a step indicating sequential invasion with the A area firing before the B area. This step can be demonstrated with ortho-dromic and direct as well as with antidromic modes of activation. Synap-tic excitation occurs with depolarization and inhibition with hyperpolari-zation. The latter is inverted from a hyper- to a depolarizing postsyn-aptic potential by the diffusion of Cl- from KCl electrodes. Stimulation of the antidromic pathway activates a powerful system of inhibitory recurrent axon collaterals. The selected points of comparison are fully compatible with the motoneuron model.
