Term | allatostatin C-producing thoracic ganglion neuron | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:00059264 (Fly Anatomy) |
Definition | An interneuron of the mesothoracic ganglion that secretes allatostatin C. There are two pairs of such neurons. They extensively innervate the dorsal region of the prothoracic and mesothoracic ganglia and send an ascending projection that arborizes around the supraesophageal zone and the inferior dorsal brain. They are present in both sexes. In females, they act downstream of the sex peptide abdominal ganglion neurons (SAGs) to inhibit the biosynthesis of juvenile hormone by the corpus allatum via a hormonal route, thereby contributing to the regulation of vitellogenesis (Zhang et al., 2022).[ FlyBase:FBrf0252872 ] | ||
