Transmedullary neuron tm3
FBbt:00003791
Transmedullary narrow field neuron that terminates in lobula layers 1 and 4 with bleb-like terminal arborizations. It has fine arborizations in medulla layers M1, M4, and M5, and has bleb-type arborization in medulla layers M1, M4, M9 and M10 (Morante and Desplan, 2008; Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989). Pre-synaptic terminals are present mainly in medulla layers M9-M10, but also in all other layers where neurites extend laterally (Pankova and Borst, 2017). It receives input from lamina monopolar neuron L1 and L5 and medullary intrinsic neuron Mi1 and it outputs to T4 neurons (Takemura et al., 2013). It seems to be capable of both cholinergic (Pankova & Borst, 2017) and GABAergic (Raghu et al., 2013) neurotransmission.
