Description

Confocal micrograph of the posterior portion of the digestive tract of an adult Drosophila fly. The circular visceral muscles are labelled in red with phalloidin staining of actin. The main nerves are stained in blue (with 22c10, a MAP1B antibody), and an insulin-like peptide (Ilp7), released by a subset of gut-innervating neurons, is labelled in green.
