General Information
Term dopaminergic PAM neuron 2 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00111016 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Dopaminergic neuron of the PAM cluster whose axon projects to the anterior layer of the beta' lobe slice 2 (Aso et al., 2014). Its dendrites mainly arborize in the superior medial protocerebrum, with some terminals in the crepine (Aso et al., 2014). There are around 8 neurons of this type in each hemisphere (Aso et al., 2014; Li et al., 2020; Otto et al., 2020). These neurons play an important role in retrieval of alcohol-associated memory (Scaplen et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0227179 FlyBase:FBrf0245835 FlyBase:FBrf0246510 FlyBase:FBrf0248215 ]
Also Known As"beta'2a DAN" ; "PAM-02" ; "PAM-beta'2a" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
CommentThree morphological clusters of individuals found in Otto et al. (2020), but not clear if these are conserved between organisms.
