LPT101 fly_anatomy.ontology Adult lobula plate tangential neuron with its soma medial to the lobula plate (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the VLPp&l1 lateral hemilineage (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). It remains ipsilateral and its main region of input and output is the posterior lateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It also receives input from all layers of the lobula plate in up to 5 columns (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 5-6 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025). adult posterior lateral protocerebrum neuron 207 VFB:FBbt_20001707 LPT101 PLP207 unilateral
