adult distal lamina satellite glial cell |
ID (Ontology) |
FBbt:00100523 (Fly Anatomy) |
Definition |
Glial cell found in the distal part of the cell body rind of the lamina. It lies in a layer beneath the pseudocartridge glial cells, and above the proximal satellite glial cells (Kremer et al., 2017). These cells are uniformly large and oblong in shape along the anterior-posterior axis (Kremer et al., 2017). They form honeycomb-like shapes that ensheath cell bodies of monopolar neurons of the lamina cortex as well as neuronal tracts (Edwards and Meinertzhagen, 2010; Kremer et al., 2017). They lie partly on top of one another and one honeycomb may be formed by two cells. There is approximately one distal satellite glial cell for every 6 groups of monopolar neurons (Edwards et al., 2012) and around 125 of these cells per optic lobe (Edwards et al., 2012; Kremer et al., 2017).[ FlyBase:FBrf0210316 FlyBase:FBrf0218414 FlyBase:FBrf0234767 ] |
