WEDPN2 [FBbt_00049455]

Adult neuron that has dendritic arborizations in the wedge and lateral horn and also has an axon in the lateral horn, extending into a neighboring region (Dolan et al., 2019; Bates et al., 2020). It is a secondary neuron that develops from the WEDa2 (BAlp3) neuroblast (Bates et al., 2020). There are five of these neurons per hemisphere and they are cholinergic and GABAergic (Dolan et al., 2019).
