摘要：

Maternal behavior in female multiparous rats was investigated after ventral mesencephalic tegmentum (VMT) radiofrequency lesions. The lesioned rats (1) did not build nests before and after parturition, (2) cannibalized pups (100%) during or shortly after parturition, (3) did not spent time nursing their pups (0%). Fecundation and gestation were normal. The VMT region, limited dorsally by the nucleus ruber, ventrally by the interpeduncular nucleus, laterally by the substantia nigra, is an essential part of the Limbic Midbrain Area (LMA). These results which indicated a behavioral disorganization can be explain in terms of LMA-limbic forebrain relationships. The possible role of aminergic systems, as the dopaminergic A10 group, is discussed. © 1979.
