General Information
Term adult NPF neuron ID (Ontology) FBbt:00048113 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult neuron that expresses neuropeptide F. There are approximately 25 in the male brain and 20 in the female brain (Lee et al., 2006). Some of these neurons are involved in the regulation of locomotion, circadian rhythm of activity and reward-based memory (Lee et al., 2006; Shao et al., 2017).[ FlyBase:FBrf0194171 FlyBase:FBrf0236762 ]
Also Known As "NPF"
