Definition Doublesex-expressing neuron of the adult male that has its cell body in the abdominal neuromere, dendrites around the male external genitalia and ascending projections to the superior medial protocerebrum (Zhang et al., 2019). It is involved in the regulation of male mating drive (Zhang et al., 2019). There are around 25 of these neurons per organism and they are cholinergic (Zhang et al., 2019).[ FlyBase:FBrf0243713 ]
