摘要

Head direction (HD) cells fire when the animal faces that cell's preferred firing direction (PFD) in the horizontal plane. The PFD response when the animal is oriented outside the earth-horizontal plane could result from cells representing direction in the plane of locomotion or as a three-dimensional (3D), global-referenced direction anchored to gravity. To investigate these possibilities, anterodorsal thalamic HD cells were recorded from restrained rats while they were passively positioned in various 3D orientations. Cell responses were unaffected by pitch or roll up to similar to 90 degrees from the horizontal plane. Firing was disrupted once the animal was oriented 90 degrees away from the horizontal plane and during inversion. When rolling the animal around the earth-vertical axis, cells were active when the animal's ventral surface faced the cell's PFD. However, with the rat rolled 90 degrees in an ear-down orientation, pitching the rat and rotating it around the vertical axis did not produce directionally tuned responses. Complex movements involving combinations of yaw-roll. but usually not yaw-pitch, resulted in reduced directional tuning even at the final upright orientation when the rat had full visual view of its environment and was pointing in the cell's PFD. Directional firing was restored when the rat's head was moved back-and-forth. There was limited evidence indicating that cells contained conjunctive firing with pitch or roll positions. These findings suggest that the brain's representation of directional heading is derived primarily from horizontal canal information and that the LID signal is a 3D gravity-referenced signal anchored to a direction in the horizontal plane.
