Va neuron [FBbt_00110116]

Larval neurosecretory abdominal neuron whose cell body is located near the ventrolateral tract of the midline. It projects its axon dorsomedially through the neuropil passing below the central intermediate and dorsal median tracts. The axon reaches the midline near the transverse projection 3 where it joins with the axon of the contralateral Va neuron. The two axons project dorsally together a short distance before diverging and forming a loop inside the neuropil and dorsal cortex. The loop closes just before the neurites leave the ventral ganglion and innervate the abdominal neurohemal organ. There are 3 bilateral pairs of Va neurons, one bilateral pair in each of the first 3 abdominal neuromeres, and they all express Capability (Santos et al., 2007). The neuron is identified as neurosecretory because it expresses neuropeptides and innervates a neurohemal organ (Santos et al., 2007).
