Adult Nervous system primary neuron
Neuron that secretes prothoracicotropic hormone that is present at least during the pharate adult stage. It innervates the prothoracic gland, which deteriorates during metamorphosis. It has its soma in the superior lateral protocerebrum, where it also arborizes in close proximity to s-LNv neurons. It is involved in regulating the circadian rhythm of adult eclosion (Selcho et al., 2017. (Selcho et al., 2017)
