LMIo [FBbt_00053237]

Adult Myoinhibitory peptide-expressing neuron with an anterior soma in the lateral protocerebrum, at the base of the medulla (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011). It arborizes in the ipsilateral medulla and in the mediolateral and dorsolateral protocerebrum (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011). There are three of these cells per hemisphere (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011; Min et al., 2016). At least one per hemisphere has wide-field tangential arborizations in a layer just distal to the lamina synaptic neuropil (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011).

Adult Nervous system Peptidergic

Adult Myoinhibitory peptide-expressing neuron with an anterior soma in the lateral protocerebrum, at the base of the medulla (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011). It arborizes in the ipsilateral medulla and in the mediolateral and dorsolateral protocerebrum (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011). There are three of these cells per hemisphere (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011; Min et al., 2016). At least one per hemisphere has wide-field tangential arborizations in a layer just distal to the lamina synaptic neuropil (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011).

Kolodziejczyk et al. (2011) find three immunoreactive neurons, but could not determine whether all have distal lamina arbors. Not sexually dimorphic and do not produce serotonin, PDF, ITP, octopamine/tyramine or dopamine and distinct from clock neurons (Kolodziejczyk et al., 2011).
