Cholinergic interneuron of the subesophageal ganglion that receives input from Gr43a/Gr46a-expressing sweet taste neurons of the pharynx, but not the Gr5a-expressing neurons of the labellum (Yapici et al., 2016). Sugar must therefore be ingested for these neurons to be activated (Yapici et al., 2016). Activation increases feeding in hungry flies (Yapici et al., 2016). There are 12 of these cells per organism, and their processes cross the midline to arborize in both the ipsilateral and contralateral sides of the subesophageal zone (Yapici et al., 2016). cell body rind of adult subesophageal zone adult interneuron adult cholinergic neuron adult subesophageal zone gustatory receptor neuron of the adult pharynx sensory perception of sweet taste regulation of feeding behavior bilateral
