obsolete larval anterior Leucokinin neuron [FBbt_00110052]

Larval neuron that expresses Leucokinin (FBgn0028418) whose cell body is located in the lateral protocerebrum and projects towards the midline forming a loop and innervating the corpus cardiacum and the prothoracic gland within the ring gland. There are three to four neuron per hemisphere (de Haro et al., 2010).

Larval neuron that expresses Leucokinin (FBgn0028418) whose cell body is located in the lateral protocerebrum and projects towards the midline forming a loop and innervating the corpus cardiacum and the prothoracic gland within the ring gland. There are three to four neuron per hemisphere (de Haro et al., 2010).

These neurons are not labelled by a leucokinin antibody, suggesting they correspond to faint leucokinergic cells appearing during the second and third instar (de Haro et al., 2010). Obsoleting as these cells express Ion transport peptide and are the same as the ipc-1 cells (Zandawala et al., 2018).
