Label	Id	Description
cranial neural crest	UBERON_0003099	[neural crest cells (NCCs) originating in the anterior part of the developing embryo and residing between the mid-diencephalon and the forming hindbrain; cranial NCCs migrate dorsolaterally to form the craniofacial mesenchyme that differentiates into various craniofacial cartilages and bones, cranial neurons, glia, and connective tissues of the face; these cells enter the pharyngeal pouches and arches where they give rise to thymic cells, bones of the middle ear and jaw (mandible), and the odontoblasts of the tooth primordia; like their counterparts in the trunk, cranial NCCs also contribute to the developing peripheral nervous system, along with the pigmented cell (i.e. melanocyte) lineage.]
photoreceptor layer of retina	UBERON_0001787	[The layer within the retina where the photoreceptor cell receptor segments reside.]
layer of retina	UBERON_0001781	[Any of the layers that make up the retina[MP].]
outer limiting layer of retina	UBERON_0001788	[The row of jucntional complexes between the plasma membranes of rod segments and the Muller glia cells; this barrier separates the layer of inner and outer segments of the rods and cones from the outer nuclear layer and forms a blood-retina barrier[MP].]
retinal neural layer	UBERON_0003902	[The part of the retina that contains neurons and photoreceptor cells[GO].]
secretion of exocrine gland	UBERON_0000456	[A portion of organism substance that is produced by exocrine glands.]
organism substance	UBERON_0000463	[Material anatomical entity in a gaseous, liquid, semisolid or solid state; produced by anatomical structures or derived from inhaled and ingested substances that have been modified by anatomical structures as they pass through the body.]
nerve	UBERON_0001021	[An enclosed, cable-like bundle of axons in the peripheral nervous system originating in a nerve root in the central nervous system (or a condensed nervous structure) connecting with peripheral structures.]
spinal cord	UBERON_0002240	[Part of the central nervous system located in the vertebral canal continuous with and caudal to the brain; demarcated from brain by plane of foramen magnum. It is composed of an inner core of gray matter in which nerve cells predominate, and an outer layer of white matter in which myelinated nerve fibers predominate, and surrounds the central canal. (CUMBO)]
nervous system cell part layer	UBERON_0022303	[Single layer of a laminar structure, identified by different density, arrangement or size of cells and processes arranged in flattened layers or lamina[CUMBO].]
cerebral subcortex	UBERON_0000454	[The layer located below the cerebral cortex that includes the forebrain, midbrain and hindbrain.]
pigmented layer of retina	UBERON_0001782	[A monolayer of pigmented epithelium covering the neural retina; develops from the outer of the two layers of the optic cup[ZFA]. the pigmented cell layer just outside the neurosensory retina that nourishes retinal visual cells, and is firmly attached to the underlying choroid and overlying retinal visual cells[WP].]
lamina	UBERON_0000957	[Any thin layer or plate.]
presumptive retinal pigmented epithelium	UBERON_0005424	[Portion of tissue that is the outer layer of the optic cup and will become the retinal pigmented epithelium.]
septum of telencephalon	UBERON_0000446	[Gray matter structure located on the midline of the forebrain consisting of the septum pellucidum (in some species) and the septal nuclei (Heimer, 1996).]
cerebral hemisphere gray matter	UBERON_0005401	[A gray matter that is part of a cerebral hemisphere.]
substantia propria of cornea	UBERON_0001777	[the lamellated connective tissue of the cornea between the Bowman and Descemet membranes]
stroma	UBERON_0003891	[Connective, non-functional supportive framework of a biological cell, tissue, or organ. Contrast with parenchyma.]
anterior limiting lamina of cornea	UBERON_0004370	[A transparent homogeneous acellular layer, 6 to 9 um thick, lying between the basal lamina of the outer layer of stratified epithelium and the substantia propria of the cornea; it is considered to be a basement membrane.]
Descemet's membrane	UBERON_0004367	[A transparent homogeneous acellular layer found between the substantia propria and the endothelial layer of the cornea[MP].]
