WEDPN5 [FBbt_00049458]
Adult neuron that has dendritic arborization in the wedge and an axon projecting to the lateral horn (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).
