General Information
Term adult central medulla neuron Cm11 ID (Ontology) FBbt:20007247 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult optic-lobe-intrinsic neuron with its soma ventral to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It has its postsynapses and presynapses restricted to the ipsilateral medulla (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It has a tangential arborization pattern in the central layers of the medulla (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 80-100 of these cells per hemisphere (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260545 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ]
Also Known As "adult CB3832 neuron" ; "CB3832"
Comment Cell type from Schlegel et al. (2024), based on FlyWire v783 (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024), matched across datasets and identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Nern et al. (2025) split this into CM11a, Cm11b, Cm11c and Cm11d types, but do not distinguish these at light level.
