• Innervation of the heart muscle by the cardioacceleratory neurons was morphologically and electrophysiologically examined in the isopod crustacean, Ligia exotica. Intracellular injection of neurobiotin into the first and second cardioacceleratory neurons(CA1 and CA2)revealed their peripheral axonal projections. Inside the heart, the CA1 and CA2 axons ran along the trunk of the cardiac ganglion. Finely arborized branches with many varicosities arose from the axon and projected over the heart muscle. Stimulation of either the CA1 or CA2 axon caused an overall depolarization in the muscle of a quiescent heart. The amplitude of the depolarization increased with increasing stimulus frequency. During stimulation, the membrane resistance of the heart muscle decreased. In a beating heart, the cardioacceleratory nerve stimulation caused multiple effects on the heart muscle activity and the heartbeat. The results suggest that the cardioacceleratory neurons of Ligia exotica regulate the amplitude of the heartbeat(inotropic effect)and the heart tonus(tonotropic effect)via the synaptic contacts on the heart muscle, while the heartbeat frequency(chronotropic effect)is regulated via the synapses on the cardiac ganglion neurons.
