Label	Id	Description
mammary gland fluid/secretion	UBERON_0006539	[A substance that is secreted by a mammary gland. The substance may differ depending on phase, with colostrum produced during pregancy/early lactation, and milk produced afterwards.]
colostrum	UBERON_0001914	[The thin, yellow, serous fluid secreted by the mammary glands during pregnancy and immediately postpartum before lactation begins. It consists of immunologically active substances, white blood cells, water, protein, fat, and carbohydrates.]
blood vessel endothelium	UBERON_0004638	[An endothelium that lines the blood vasculature. Other endothelia may line lymph vessels, the heart]
endothelium of arteriole	UBERON_0001916	[An endothelium that is part of an arteriole [Automatically generated definition].]
arterial system endothelium	UBERON_0004700	[An endothelium that is part of an arterial system [Automatically generated definition].]
medial forebrain bundle	UBERON_0001910	[The Medial forebrain bundle (MFB), is a complex bundle of axons coming from the basal olfactory regions, the periamygdaloid region, and the septal nuclei, and passing to the lateral hypothalamus, with some carrying on into the tegmentum. It contains both ascending and descending fibers. It also represents a part of the mesolimbic pathway, carrying information between the ventral tegmentum and the nucleus accumbens. It is commonly accepted that the MFB is a part of the reward system, involved in the integration of reward and pleasure. Electrical stimulation of the medial forebrain bundle is believed to cause sensations of pleasure. This hypothesis is based upon intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS) studies. Animals will work for MFB ICSS, and humans report that MFB ICSS is intensely pleasurable. This is most likely because the medial forebrain bundle carries information from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the nucleus accumbens (nAcc or Acb). The nAcc is a recognized reward center, and activation of the pathway from the VTA to the nAcc is believed to be rewarding, which is why it is sometimes referred to as the hedonic highway. [WP,unvetted].]
mammary bud	UBERON_0005333	[A bulb of epithelial cells that forms from the mammary placode that develops into the mammary gland.]
lobule of mammary gland	UBERON_0001912	[Organ component of the mammary gland which consists of an aggregate of mammary alveoli that communicate with a lobular lactiferous duct.[FMA]]
extremitas anterior	UBERON_3000155	[Large anterior outgrowth of the septomaxilla that is directed into the space between the alary cartilage and the lamina inferior.]

venous system endothelium	UBERON_0004701	[An endothelium that is part of a venous system [Automatically generated definition].]
endothelium of vein	UBERON_0001919	[An endothelium that is part of a vein [Automatically generated definition].]
paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus	UBERON_0001930	[Nucleus in the anterior part of the hypothalamus. (MSH) * one of the magnocellular hypothalamic nuclei, an elongated plate of large, deeply staining cells located close to the third ventricle in the anterior hypothalamic area; major source of oxytocin and to a lesser extent, of antidiuretic hormone, neurohormones, which are carried to the neurohypophysis along the paraventriculohypophysial tract. (CSP)]
paracentral nucleus	UBERON_0001924	[one of the intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus, located medial to the central lateral nucleus.]

central medial nucleus	UBERON_0001923	[A small cell group in the interthalamic adhesion of the thalamus that occupy the midline region of the internal medullary lamina, between the left and right paracentral nuclei.]
fenestra nasobasalis	UBERON_3000166	[Small opening at the anterior tip of the nasal capsule, on the floor of the cavum inferius. It is located medially to the base of the inferior prenasal cartilage and serves for the passage of the ramus medialis narium and arteria orbitonasalis.]
