Term |
adult doublesex pCd (male) neuron |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00047352 (Fly Anatomy) |
Definition |
Doublesex-expressing neuron of the male that is part of a cluster in the superior medial protocerebrum (Rideout et al., 2010). It is cholinergic and also expresses fruitless (Jung et al., 2020). There are more of these cells in the male (approximately 16) than pCd (female) neurons in the female (approximately 12) (Robinett et al., 2010; Kimura et al., 2015). They are required for long-term normal increases in mating behavior and aggression in some social contexts (Zhang et al., 2019; Jung et al., 2020). Four of these cells per hemisphere arise from the DM2 (DPMpm1) neuroblast (Ren et al., 2016).[ FlyBase:FBrf0210397 FlyBase:FBrf0210735 FlyBase:FBrf0228365 FlyBase:FBrf0233706 FlyBase:FBrf0234085 FlyBase:FBrf0243713 FlyBase:FBrf0244654 ] |
