medulla columnar neuron MC61 [FBbt_00111641]
A medulla columnar neuron whose cell body is located in the lateral part of the medulla cell body rind (Otsuna et al., 2014). It arborizes in medulla layers 6 and 7, spanning around 8 columns, and then projects into the central brain to terminate in the anterior optic tubercle (AOTU) (Otsuna et al., 2014). Postsynaptic sites are found in the medulla sublayer M6B, and presynaptic sites are in the serpentine (M7) and M6A medulla layers, and in the AOTU (Otsuna et al., 2014). The AOTU arbors of these cells define a region of the small unit that is distinct from the region arborized by the MC64 cells (Hulse et al., 2020). This neuron was originally identified as ’lobula columnar neuron LC10C’ by Otsuna and Ito (2006) but later recognized as medulla columnar neuron MC61 by Panser et al. (2016). ‘MT neuron’ synonym added based on expression of VT002072 (Panser et al., 2016; Sun et al., 2017).
