Neurons with cholinergic phenotype in the visual system of Drosophila.

The Journal of comparative neurology - 1 Jan 2011

Varija Raghu Shamprasad, Reiff Dierk F, Borst Alexander

Abstract excerpt

The optic lobe of Drosophila houses about 60,000 neurons that are organized in parallel, retinotopically arranged columns. Based on the Golgi-staining method, Fischbach and Dittrich ([1989] Cell Tissue Res 258:441-475) determined that each column contains about 90 identified cells. Each of these cells is supposed to release one or two different neurotransmitters. However, for most cells the released...
