Abstract
Hormones
mediate
inter-organ
signaling
which
is
crucial
in
orchestrating
diverse
behaviors
and
physiological
processes
including
sleep
activity,
feeding,
growth,
metabolism
reproduction.
The
pars
intercerebralis
lateralis
insects
represent
major
hubs
contain
neurosecretory
cells
(NSC)
that
produce
various
hormones.
To
obtain
insight
into
how
hormonal
regulated,
we
have
characterized
the
synaptic
connectome
of
NSC
adult
Drosophila
brain.
Identification
neurons

inputs

Surprisingly,
despite
most
