General Information
Term adult lobula tangential neuron LT37 ID (Ontology) FBbt:20011444 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult lobula tangential neuron of the LT37 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lobula layer 4, superior medial protocerebrum, lobula layer 6, posterior lateral protocerebrum, inferior clamp, wedge, antler, superior posterior slope, inferior posterior slope, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B, the contralateral superior posterior slope, and the gnathal ganglion and inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, superior posterior slope, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B, and the inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is GABA (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 "LT37"
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.
