| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study clarified the morphological and functional alterations in the muscle cells and motor neurons of the abdominal muscles and external anal sphincter muscle, which are closely related to defecation movement, of experimental type I diabetic rats. Although a decrease in number and size in the muscle cells and motor neurons was observed in the abdominal muscles as diabetes progressed, no major changes were observed in the external anal sphincter muscle. No major change was observed in the contraction pressure due to twitching of the external anal sphincter muscle. During defecation it is considered necessary to relax the sphincter muscles at the same time as the rise of abdominal pressure to expel the feces smoothly from the body. If a proper balance of the abdominal muscles and external anal sphincter muscle is disturbed during defecation, the defecation activity could be hindered.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
排便運動に深く関連した腹壁筋と外肛門括約筋について、糖尿病による筋組織と運動ニューロンの形態的・機能的変化を明らかにした。腹壁筋が病期とともに変性が見られる一方、それに比例した外肛門括約筋の変性は観察されなかった。排便時には腹圧の上昇と同時に括約筋群を弛緩させ円滑に便を体外に排出させる必要があると考えられているが、それらのバランスが崩れていき適切な排便活動が妨げられている可能性が示唆された。
