MeVC23

ID: FBbt_20007300

Adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron of the MeVC23 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M1, medulla layer M2, medulla layer M3, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, medulla layer M10, lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, posterior lateral protocerebrum, accessory medulla, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M1, medulla layer M2, medulla layer M3, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, posterior lateral protocerebrum, accessory medulla, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
