dsx-AbN [FBbt_00053219]

Adult doublesex-expressing neuron that has its cell body in the abdominal ganglion (Lee et al., 2002). There are over 300 of these cells in the female and close to 300 in the male (Pavlou et al., 2016). Some of these neurons innervate the internal genitalia via the abdominal nerve trunk and some ascend to the brain via the cervical connection (Rideout et al., 2010).
