Label	Id	Description
epineurium	UBERON_0000124	[A loose connective tissue sheath surrounding each peripheral nerve. Composed mainly of colagen and fibroblasts, it forms a substantial covering over nerve trunks, then thins to an incomplete layer around smaller branches near their terminations. The epineurium is continuous centrally with the dura. Peripherally, it usually ends near the termination of a nerve fiber, but it may continue as the capsule of Meissner corpuscles and a few other encapsulated endings. Nolte, J. The Human Brain 3rd edition]
distal tarsal bone 5	UBERON_0010738	[Endochondral tarsal bone articulating with centralia and metatarsal 5.]
root of abducens nerve	UBERON_0002786	[Nerve fibers arising from motor neurons in the abducens nucleus that are contained within the pontine tegmentum]
root of cranial nerve	UBERON_0006843	[The initial segment of a cranial nerve, leaving the central nervous system.]
decussation of trochlear nerve	UBERON_0002787	[the crossing of the two trochlear nerves at their exit through the velum medullare anterius.]
neural decussation	UBERON_0007418	[Nerve fibers crossing the midline of the neuraxis relative to their point of origin, on a course to from one level of the nervous system to another. (CUMBO, Heimer, L. The Human Brain, 2nd ed., 1995, pg 6)]
anterior nuclear group	UBERON_0002788	[Mostly gray regional part of anterior thalamic region, consisting of the anterior medial, anterior dorsal and anterior lateral thalamic nuclei in primates. In rodents, it consists of anterior medial and anterior ventral divisions, with several subdivisions of each, according to Paxinos (MM: 2006-10-26)]
proximal tarsal bone	UBERON_0011679	[A tarsal bone that connected_to a hindlimb zeugopod skeleton.]
calcaneum endochondral element	UBERON_0015014	[A calcaneum bone or its cartilage or pre-cartilage precursor.]
calcaneum cartilage element	UBERON_0010842	[A calcaneum endochondral element that is composed primarily of cartilage tissue.]
caudal part of ventral posterolateral nucleus of thalamus	UBERON_0002781
centrale	UBERON_0012131	[Endochondral bone located between the proximal and distal rows of carpals or tarsals and thus representing the central carpals or tarsals[PHENOSCAPE].]
talus	UBERON_0002395	[A proximal tarsal bone resulting from fusion of intermedium and fibulare.]
peripheral nervous system	UBERON_0000010	[A major division of the nervous system that contains nerves which connect the central nervous system (CNS) with sensory organs, other organs, muscles, blood vessels and glands.]
distal tarsal bone 1 endochondral element	UBERON_0015102
distal tarsal bone 1 cartilage	UBERON_0015103	[A distal tarsal bone 1 endochondral element that is composed primarily of cartilage tissue.]
central tegmental tract of pons	UBERON_0002783
central tegmental tract	UBERON_0009643	[A pathway containing fibers from midbrain nuclei that project to the inferior olivary complex, as well as fibers originating in the pontine reticular formation and the medullary reticular formation that project to several nuclei of the thalamus. It can be identified in the midbrain and the pons (Adapted from Brain Info).]
distal tarsal bone 2 endochondral element	UBERON_0015105
distal tarsal bone 2 cartilage	UBERON_0015106	[A distal tarsal bone 2 endochondral element that is composed primarily of cartilage tissue.]
