Adult lateral horn output neuron of the PD2a1 group that fasciculates with the PD2 primary neurite tract (Frechter et al., 2019; Dolan et al., 2019). It is a secondary neuron that is part of the DPLl2 (VLPd&p1) dorsal hemilineage (Bates et al., 2020). There are approximately 5 of these neurons and they are cholinergic (Dolan et al., 2018; Schlegel et al., 2021). A large portion of its input is from antennal lobe projection neurons and it responds to olfactory stimuli (Dolan et al., 2018). Some of these cells receive input from mushroom body vertical lobe arborizing neuron 2 alpha (MBON-alpha2sc) and they may be involved in memory (Dolan et al., 2018).
Adult lateral horn output neuron of the PD2b1 group that fasciculates with the PD2 primary neurite tract (Frechter et al., 2019; Dolan et al., 2019). It is a secondary neuron that is part of the DPLl2 (VLPd&p1) dorsal hemilineage (Bates et al., 2020). It has dendrites in the mushroom body calyx, as well as in the lateral horn (Dolan et al., 2018). A large portion of its input is from antennal lobe projection neurons and it responds to olfactory stimuli (Dolan et al., 2018). There are approximately 2 of these neurons per hemisphere and they are cholinergic (Dolan et al., 2018). Some of these cells receive input from mushroom body vertical lobe arborizing neuron 2 alpha (MBON-alpha2sc) and they may be involved in memory (Dolan et al., 2018).
