It has mixed presynaptic and postsynaptic terminals in both hemispheres of the subesophageal zone, spanning the midline (Yao and Scott, 2022). There is a heterogeneous population of three of these cells per hemisphere, and they all contribute to the regulation of sugar intake (Yao and Scott, 2022).
