adult CCAP/burs subesophageal neuron [FBbt_00111319]

Adult neuron that expresses CCAP (Crustacean cardioactive peptide) (FBgn0039007) and Bursicon (FBgn0038901) and Partner of Bursicon (FBgn0264810), whose soma is located in the subesophageal zone. There are 2 of these neurons in each hemisphere, one in a more medial position and one more posterior. The main neurite of the posterior neuron extends towards the midline and arborizes. It then crosses the midline and descends into the ventral nerve cord, arborizing mainly in the contralateral thoracic and abdominal neuromeres. In the latter, the arborizations are at similar locations to the ones of the bursicon abdominal neurons. It exits the central nervous system via one of the abdominal nerves.
