LC6 glomerulus interneuron 2 [FBbt_00049988]

LC6 glomerulus interneuron that has its cell body in the cell body rind region between the optic lobe and the central brain (Morimoto et al., 2020). It has only ipsilateral processes (Morimoto et al., 2020). It receives input in from LC16 cells in the LC16 glomerulus, as well as LC6 cells, and sends output to the anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum (Morimoto et al., 2020). There are approximately 4-6 cells of this type per hemisphere and they are cholinergic (Morimoto et al., 2020). They selectively respond to looming stimuli in a spatially-restricted visual field (Morimoto et al., 2020).

They selectively respond to looming stimuli in a spatially-restricted visual field (Morimoto et al., 2020).

Seems to correspond to PVLP113_a and PVLP113_b (Morimoto et al., 2020).
