fast tibial extensor motor neuron [FBbt_00053120]
Tibial extensor (levator) motor neuron with broad dendritic arbors in the ipsilateral leg neuropil and a more prominent medially-directed branch compared to the slow tibial extensor (Azevedo et al., 2024). It receives a very large number of synaptic inputs (Azevedo et al., 2024). It innervates proximal fibers of the tibial levator muscle (Azevedo et al., 2024).
