Abstract excerpt
To study the developmental regulation of a neuropeptide phenotype, we have analyzed the biochemical and morphological differentiation of two identifiable neurons in embryos of the moth, Manduca sexta. The central cell, CF, and the peripheral cell, L1, are both neuroendocrine neurons that express neuropeptides related to the molluscan tetrapeptide FMRFamide. Both neurons project axons to the transverse nerve in...
