| Term | adult SIFamide cell of pars intercerebralis | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:00047427 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Neuron of the adult pars intercerebralis (PI) that expresses SIFamide (SIFa) (Verleyen et al., 2004; Terhzaz et al., 2007). There are two of these cells per hemisphere, thought to be the only SIFamide-expressing cells of the adult central nervous system (Terhzaz et al., 2007). They innervate large parts of the brain and ventral nerve cord (Terhzaz et al., 2007), including the mushroom body calyx and alpha lobe slice 3 (Aso et al., 2014). These neurons play a role in inhibiting courtship behavior in males and reducing receptivity in females (Terhzaz et al., 2007).[ FlyBase:FBrf0179977 FlyBase:FBrf0194483 FlyBase:FBrf0224987 FlyBase:FBrf0227179 FlyBase:FBrf0248215 ] | ||
