Figure 6. Glutamatergic LNs express each 5-HTR.

Figure 6

(a) Schematic of approach used to determine 5-HTR expression within glutamatergic LNs. We used a Trojan T2A-LexA::QFAD protein-trap line for vesicular glutamate transporter (VGlut) to drive the expression of GFP (green) in every glutamatergic neuron. Within the same animal, RFP (magenta) is produced in every neuron that produces a given 5-HTR, depending on the 5-HTR T2A-GAL4 line used. Both GFP and RFP (white) is produced in glutamatergic neurons that express a given 5-HTR. (b) Glutamatergic LNs (green) that co-express the 5-HT1A (magenta). (c) Glutamatergic LNs (green) that co-express the 5-HT1B (magenta). (d) Glutamatergic LNs (green) that co-express the 5-HT2A (magenta). (e) Glutamatergic LNs (green) that co-express the 5-HT2B (magenta). (f) Glutamatergic LNs (green) that co-express the 5-HT7 (magenta). All scale bars = 10 um.
