PAL [FBbt_00100215]

A dopaminergic neuron whose cell body is located in a cluster of approximately 5 cell bodies in the cortex located lateral to the dorsal portion of the vertical lobes in the middle of the superior lateral protocerebrum of the adult brain. It belongs to the DPLam primary lineage, but does not mature until the pupal stage (Hartenstein et al., 2017. (Hartenstein et al., 2017, Mao and Davis, 2009)

Adult Dopaminergic lineage VLPd1 DPLam primary neuron

A dopaminergic neuron whose cell body is located in a cluster of approximately 5 cell bodies in the cortex located lateral to the dorsal portion of the vertical lobes in the middle of the superior lateral protocerebrum of the adult brain. It belongs to the DPLam primary lineage, but does not mature until the pupal stage (Hartenstein et al., 2017. (Hartenstein et al., 2017, Mao and Davis, 2009)

Mao and Davis, 2009 identify 8 protocerebral clusters coincidentally positive for TH-GAL4 activity and tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity, implying these cells are dopaminergic.
