General Information
Term precursor of adult central brain neuropil glia ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047884 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Precursor of neuropil associated glia of the adult central brain. It arises from a type II neuroblast in the central brain during larval development. Different neuroblasts generally contribute to glia of different adult brain regions. These precursors clonally expand during metamorphosis, spread out across the neuropil surfaces and mature into adult glia.[ FlyBase:FBrf0229106 ]
Also Known As"sNPG precursor of central brain"
CommentSome of these cells migrate to the optic lobe, but optic lobe-born glia do not migrate to the central brain (Omoto et al., 2015).
