VFB:FBbt_00052149 Neuron that innervates any part of the gut. These cells include sensory neurons, as well as efferent neurons that terminate on the visceral muscles and the underlying epithelium (Lemaitre and Miguel-Aliaga, 2013). They are chemically and neuroanatomically diverse, with efferent neurons collectively producing several neuropeptides and serotonin (Lemaitre and Miguel-Aliaga, 2013).
