larval thoracic CCAP neuron [FBbt_00111327]

Larval neuron that expresses CCAP (Crustacean cardioactive peptide) and whose soma is located in a thoracic neuromere. There is one of these located ventrolaterally in each pro- and mesothoracic hemineuromere, and two in each metathoracic hemineuromere (Santos et al., 2007). It sends a neurite beneath the transversal projection TP4 ventromedially, where its neurites meet those of its contralateral equivalent in proximity to the VM fascicle (Santos et al., 2007). It forms extensive arborizations along the midline between the DM and VM fascicles (Santos et al., 2007).

Park et al. (2008) - FBrf0210278 show additional thoracic CCAP neurons, but could not find these in other references.
