| Term |
larval metathoracic VPM neuron |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00047569 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition |
Octopaminergic, bilaterally-paired neuron of the metathoracic neuromere of the larval ventral nerve cord. There is one of these neurons per hemisphere. They form a cluster with the VUM neuron cell bodies, but unlike the VUM neurons, the VPM neurons are restricted to the CNS. The metathoracic VPM neuron bifurcates after crossing the midline, with one process running anteriorly to the subesophageal ganglion. The other process innervates the dorsomedial and dorsolateral neuropil of the thoracic neuromeres. The metathoracic VPN neuron also arborizes in the basal protocerebrum (Selcho et al., 2012).[ FlyBase:FBrf0219406 ] |
