It innervates the prothoracic gland, which deteriorates during metamorphosis. It has its soma in the superior lateral protocerebrum, where it also arborizes in close proximity to s-LNv neurons. It is involved in regulating the circadian rhythm of adult eclosion (Selcho et al., 2017). adult l-NSC PTTH adult neurosecretory cell of pars lateralis regulation of eclosion regulation of circadian rhythm
