| Term | adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron MeVCMe2 | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:20001878 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult visual centrifugal neuron with its soma near to the antler (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It belongs to the DM1 posterior hemilineage (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). Its main input regions are the ipsilateral superior posterior slope and inferior bridge (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It projects to the contralateral medulla and sends output to over 100 columns of layer M7 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0246888 FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] | ||
| Also Known As | "adult posterior slope neuron 123" ; "cM14" ; "MeVC2" (for all, see Synonyms field below) | ||
| Comment | Cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020), updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024) and identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire. | ||
