General Information
Term descending neuron of the gnathal ganglion DNg02 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047594 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Descending neuron belonging to the DNg group, having a cell body in the cell body rind around the gnathal ganglion (Namiki et al., 2018). It descends on the ipsilateral side of the cervical connective, but also has contralateral innervation (Namiki et al., 2018). It has neurites in the inferior clamp, inferior bridge, inferior posterior slope, superior posterior slope, gnathal ganglion, wing neuropil and intermediate tectulum (Namiki et al., 2018). It fasciculates with the median tract of the dorsal cervical fascicle in the ventral nerve cord (Namiki et al., 2018). It is cholinergic (Cheong et al., 2024). There is a cluster of up to fifteen of these cells in each hemisphere (Namiki et al., 2018).[ FlyBase:FBrf0239335 FlyBase:FBrf0258993 ]
