Research Abstract	本年度はワモンゴキブリの運動中枢に対する多種感覚入力の経路の概要を明らかにした。運動の歩行時には、複眼、触角、振動受容器、尾葉、自己受容器等が同時に刺激される。これらの感覚入力は私共が生理形態学的に同定した中大脳にある2対のニュ-ロンにプラス、マイナスと符号を変えながら収斂することが明らかになった。このニュ-ロンをSMーニュ-ロン(small multimodal ocellar neuronの略)と名付けた。SMーニュ-ロンは、前大脳に2対ある下降性ニュ-ロンを興奮させる。この下降性ニュ-ロンをDOーニュ-ロン(descending ocellar neuronの略)と名付けた。DOーニュ-ロンの軸索は食道下神経節を経て、腹髄を腹部迄下降する。ゴキブリの走行時には種々の感覚器が刺激されるため、DOーニュ-ロンは持続的にスパイクを発生している。感覚器のうち単眼だけは光刺激により瞬時にDOーニュ-ロンの放電を抑制した。これは薄暮下では、複眼に比べて絶対感度の良い単眼が光環境をモニタ-することにより、走行コ-スを制御するためと考えられた。次にDOーニュ-ロンがどのように信号を胸部、腹部神経系に送るかを調べた。下降性の軸索の形態を細胞内染色で調べた結果、軸索は食道下神経節、前胸、中胸、後胸の各神経節、更に腹部の神経節で側枝を出していることが分った。これはDOーニュ-ロンが微細な運動の調節ではなく全体の運動系活動を迅速に調節する機能を果していることを示唆する結果であった。このことを確認するためDOーニュ-ロンに通電刺激をしスパイクを発生させ、胸部神経節からでるいくつかの神経にどのように出力するかを調べた。その結果、ほとんどの神経で放電頻度の変化が見られた。以上の結果は、DOーニュ-ロンに伝えられた多種感覚入力が運動系を調節する経路の一部を示したものであるが、次年度は運動ニュ-ロン回路そのものを解析したい。
