Label Id Description
suspensory ligament of lens UBERON_0006762 [The zonule of Zinn (Zinn's membrane, ciliary zonule) is a ring of fibrous strands connecting the ciliary body with the crystalline lens of the eye. The zonule of Zinn is split into two layers: a thin layer, which lines the hyaloid fossa, and a thicker layer, which is a collection of zonular fibers. Together, the fibers are known as the suspensory ligament of the lens[WP]. Modified or toughened vitreous that suspend the lens at the equator to the non-pigmented epithelium of the ciliary zone. In zebrafish, dorsal zonules are thickened as compared to ventral zonules. In both dorsal and ventral regions, these fibers delimit the vitreous body aqueous humor boundary[ZFA].]
renal collecting system UBERON_0004100 [The collecting duct system of the kidney consists of a series of tubules and ducts that connect the nephrons to the ureter. It participates in electrolyte and fluid balance through reabsorption and excretion, processes regulated by the hormones aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone.]
crus of ear UBERON_0004106 [Horizontal piece of cartilage located outside the ear canal that divides the upper and lower parts of the ear.]
cartilage of external ear UBERON_0001867 [A cartilage that is part of a external ear [Automatically generated definition].]
subungual region UBERON_0004105 [Region beneath a nail or claw.]
colon epithelial cell CL_0011108 [Epithelial cell that is part of the colon epithelium.]
clivus of occipital bone UBERON_0004108 [Part of the cranium, the clivus is a shallow depression behind the dorsum sellC& that slopes obliquely backward. It forms a gradual sloping process at the anterior most portion of the basilar occipital bone at its junction with the sphenoid bone. On axial planes, it sits just posterior to the sphenoid sinuses. Just lateral to the clivus bilaterally is the foramen lacerum which contains the internal carotid artery, proximal to its anastamosis with the Circle of Willis. Posterior to the clivus is the basilar artery. The clivus supports the upper part of the pons.]
head of femur UBERON_0006767 [The hemispheric articular surface at the upper extremity of the thigh bone[Stedman, 26th ed]. The femur head is the highest part of the thigh bone. It is supported by the neck of the femur. The head is globular and forms rather more than a hemisphere, is directed upward, medialward, and a little forward, the greater part of its convexity being above and in front. Its surface is smooth, coated with cartilage in the fresh state, except over an ovoid depression, the fovea capitis femoris, which is situated a little below and behind the center of the head, and gives attachment to the ligament of head of femur. If there is a fracture of the neck of the femur, the blood supply through the ligament becomes crucial. In orthopedic surgery, the head of the femur is important because it can undergo avascular necrosis and consequent osteochondritis dissecans. The head is removed in total hip replacement surgery [WP].]
epiphyseal line UBERON_0006768
left anterior vena cava UBERON_0006765
UBERON_0004102 UBERON_0004102
right anterior vena cava UBERON_0006766
nasolabial region UBERON_0004101 [Missing definition for term UBERON:0004101. Please replace it using linked reference.]
hairline UBERON_0004104 [Anatomical line demarcating the boundary between forehead and scalp.]
epithelium of conjunctiva UBERON_0006763 [Layer of nonkeratinized squamous epithelium lining the conjunctiva, overlying scleral tissue.]
anterior communicating artery UBERON_0006764 [A blood vessel of the brain that connects the left and right anterior cerebral arteries. The anterior communicating artery connects the two anterior cerebral arteries across the commencement of the longitudinal fissure. Sometimes this vessel is wanting, the two arteries joining together to form a single trunk, which afterward divides; or it may be wholly, or partially, divided into two. Its length averages about 4 mm, but varies greatly. It gives off some of the anteromedial ganglionic vessels, but these are principally derived from the anterior cerebral artery. It is part of the cerebral arterial circle, also known as the circle of Willis.]
branch of anterior cerebral artery UBERON_0035380 [An arterial branch arising from the anterior cerebral artery. It includes the callosomarginal artery, frontopolar artery, medial orbitofrontal artery, pericallosal artery, and recurrent artery of Heubner.]
chorionic trophoblast cell CL_0011101 [Cells of the uterine chorion that acquire specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize chorionic trophoblasts. These cells will migrate towards the spongiotrophoblast layer and give rise to syncytiotrophoblasts of the labyrinthine layer.]
trophoblast cell CL_0000351 [An extraembryonic cell that develops from a trophectodermal cell. This cell is found in the outer layer of the blastocyst and can invade other structures in the uterus once the blastocyst implants into the uterine wall. A trophoblast cell is involved in the implantation of the embryo into the uterine wall, placental formation, remodelling of maternal vasculature in the uterus, nutrient and gas exchange, hormone production, and immune modulation to support fetal development.]
autonomic neuron CL_0000107 [A neuron whose cell body is within an autonomic ganglion.]
