本文综述了昆虫神经肌肉系统（不包括与飞行有关的系统）的结构、生理和药理学特性。本文讨论了昆虫肌纤维的膜特性与昆虫肌肉离子环境的关系。注意昆虫神经肌肉药理学的最新发展和投机性的评论的化学介质的身份和性质兴奋性和抑制性神经肌肉突触。最后，根据蝗虫自由行走标本研究中获得的新信息，讨论了昆虫骨骼肌抑制性和兴奋性轴突的功能意义。
A review of the literature on the structural, physiological, and pharmacological properties of insect neuromuscular systems (excluding those concerned with flight) is presented. The membrane properties of insect muscle fibers are discussed in relation to the varied ionic environment of insect muscle. Attention is given to recent developments in insect neuromuscular pharmacology and speculative comments on the identities and properties of the chemical mediators at excitatory and inhibitory nerve-muscle synapses are made. Finally, the functional significances of inhibitory and excitatory axons innervating insect skeletal muscles are discussed in the light of new information obtained from studies of free-walking locust preparations.
