| Term | adult sex peptide abdominal ganglion neuron | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:00111304 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Female-specific adult ascending neuron that regulates female receptivity to mating (Feng et al., 2014). There are two of these cells per female, with their somas on either side of the midline, variably found on either the dorsal or ventral surface of the abdominal ganglion (Feng et al., 2014). It arborizes extensively within the abdominal ganglion, in the same region as the adult sex peptide sensory neuron, and sends an ascending projection along the dorsal midline into the brain (Feng et al., 2014). There, it projects ipsilaterally in the periesophageal region and bilaterally in the dorsal protocerebrum, including the pars intercerebralis (Feng et al., 2014). In the brain, it synapses onto and can activate doublesex pC1a neurons (Wang et al., 2020). It is cholinergic (Wang et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0225544 FlyBase:FBrf0245074 ] | ||
| Also Known As | "AN_SMP_2" ; "SAG" ; "SAG neuron" | ||
| Comment | These neurons express doublesex (FBgn0000504), but not fruitless (FBgn0004652) (Feng et al., 2014). | ||
