PPL202

ID: FBbt_00048254

Adult dopaminergic neuron with a cell body in the PPL2ab cluster. Its major arborization sites are in the ventral lateral horn and the mushroom body calyx (Mao and Davis, 2009; Xie et al., 2018). The primary neurite extends dorsally and one branch innervates the calyx (Mao and Davis, 2009). A second branch innervates the a small part of adjacent posterior inferior lateral protocerebrum and the ventral portion of the lateral horn (Mao and Davis, 2009). A third branch projects medially and innervates the middle inferior medial protocerebrum (Mao and Davis, 2009).

Identified in Mao and Davis (2009), who claim this is the MB-C1 neuron from Tanaka et al (2008) - FBrf0205263, but the two are listed as distinct in Aso et al. (2014) - FBrf0227179. Mapped to hemibrain PPL202 based on ventral innervation of lateral horn and comparison to Fig 6 of Mao and Davis (2009). Schlegel et al. (2021) - FBrf0249560 map PPL202 to LHCENT7, but in hemibrain notes LHCENT7 is mapped to PPL201.
