Rats with unilateral or bilateral electrolytic lesions in the globus pallidus (GP) became aphagic and adipsic. Aphagia and adipsia lasted 2-3 days in rats with unilateral lesion, but were more persistent in animals with bilateral lesions. EEG arousal induced by nociceptive stimuli applied to the side of the body contralateral to the unilateral pallidal lesion was of shorter duration than that induced by ipsilateral stimulation; no difference was found between rats injured in left or right (GP). Total exploratory activity of rats with symmetrical or asymmetrical lesions, exposed to a novel environment for ten min, was not different from that of the control group, but the exploratory activity measured in a 60 sec block showed trends in the two injured groups being different than those in the controls. Rats with unilateral right or bilateral lesions showed a lower level of neophobia for saccharin than controls. Acquisition of conditioned taste aversion was similar in lesioned rats and controls, but extinction of the conditioned taste aversion was slower in the intact than in the injured animals.
