Cm27 [FBbt_20011376]

Adult central medulla intrinsic neuron of the Cm27 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M5, medulla layer M6 and medulla serpentine layer (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M6 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 4 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
