MeVC8 [FBbt_20007292]

Adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron of the MeVC8 group (Nern et al., 2025. It belongs to the DM1 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025. It receives input in the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope (Nern et al., 2025. It sends output to the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope (Nern et al., 2025. Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025. There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025.

Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025. There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025. (Dorkenwald et al., 2024, Eckstein et al., 2024)

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. Hemilineage information from neuprint, though original source not clear. Other information from Nern et al., 2025 supplements.
