General Information
Term adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron MeVC1 ID (Ontology) FBbt:20007298 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron of the MeVC1 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral antennal mechanosensory and motor center, wedge and inferior posterior slope, the contralateral medulla layer M1, medulla layer M2, medulla layer M3, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, medulla layer M9, antennal mechanosensory and motor center, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, wedge, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, and the gnathal ganglion and saddle (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the contralateral medulla layer M1, medulla layer M2, medulla layer M3, medulla layer M4, medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, medulla layer M9 and inferior posterior slope, and the gnathal ganglion (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:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ]
Also Known As "MeVC1"
Comment Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
