TL;DR
Spontaneous patterns of hippocampal EEG and septal cell activity were studied in immobilized cats, and the influences of high frequency stimulation of medial hypothalamus and lateral hypothalamus were determined.
Abstract
Spontaneous patterns of hippocampal EEG and septal cell activity were studied in immobilized cats, and the influences of high frequency stimulation of medial hypothalamus (MH) and lateral hypothalamus (LH) were determined. Septal cells were divided into 3 classes on the basis of their discharge patterns: (1), rhythmic bursting (2), non-rhythmic bursting and (3), non-bursting, and the relationship of these discharge patterns to hippocampal theta rhythm was analyzed. Rhythmic bursting cells displayed close frequency and phase relations to hippocampal theta rhythm and were located chiefly in the diagonal band of Broca. Cells of the other two categories were found both within and outside of the diagonal band region.

The burst activity of B-units may remain unchanged even when the theta rhythm is temporarily replaced by another type of activity, a fact which supports the assumption that the rhythm of the theTA activity is the consequence rather than the cause of the burst firing pattern of septum cells.

The hippocampus is connected by afferent and efferent pathways with many other brain areas and, therefore, a drug-induced change of hippocampal activity does not necessarily indicate a drug action on the hippocampus itself.

Systematic mapping by high frequency stimulation of the brain stem of cats maintained under a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen has revealed five somewhat delimited and dispersed sites where stimulation caused hippocampal theta rhythm (synchrony) and two where a contrasting pattern of desynchronization was elicited.

Septum units in the rabbit discharge in regular bursts synchronous with the hippocampus theta rhythm but with different phase relationships, and superimposition of time histograms of these bursts results in a curve similar to the theta wave in shape.

Any type of hippocampal slow wave pattern (irregular, regularized, or depressed) may or may not be associated with regular fast activity, as it has been suggested that hippocampal activity can be influenced by three mechanisms, one producing the theta rhythm, another depressing slow activity, and a third eliciting aregular fast activity.
