adult subesophageal zone DSOG1 neuron

ID: FBbt_00111297

Descending neuron of the adult subesophageal zone whose large cell body is located in the cell body rind around the gnathal ganglion (Pool et al., 2014). It arborizes extensively and bilaterally in the ventral subesophageal zone, including around the esophageal passage (Pool et al., 2014). It has a contralateral descending projection that terminates throughout the ventral nerve cord (Pool et al., 2014). It is involved in regulating food and water consumption (Pool et al., 2014). It is a GABAergic neuron (Pool et al., 2014). There are four of these cells per organism (Pool et al., 2014).

Neurotransmitter was assessed by immunostaining (Pool et al., 2014).
