Label	Id	Description
thalamic reticular nucleus	UBERON_0001903	[The thalamic reticular nucleus is part of the ventral thalamus that forms a capsule around the thalamus laterally. It is separated from the thalamus by the external medullary lamina. Reticular cells are GABAergic, and have discoid dendritic arbors in the plane of the nucleus. Thalamic Reticular Nucleus is variously abbreviated TRN, RTN, NRT, and RT. [WP,unvetted].]
foramen acusticum maius	UBERON_3000181
gland of diencephalon	UBERON_0003296	[Any gland that is part of the diencephalon. Examples: pineal gland, neurohypophysis.]
pineal complex	UBERON_0015238	[A cluster in the epithalamus that consists of the pineal body and any associated structures, such as the parapineal gland or the parietal organ. The complex is poorly developed in mammals.]
epaxial region somite 24	UBERON_2001040	[Somite-derived body wall muscle present dorsal to the horizontal myoseptum. Kimmel et al, 1995.]
myotome somite 24	UBERON_2000930	[Portion of the somite giving rise to body wall muscle masses. Kimmel et al, 1995.]
epithelium of trachea	UBERON_0001901	[the epithelial lining of the trachea which contains numerous ciliated cells]
sclerotome somite 21	UBERON_2001041	[Medial ventral region of the somite that will form vertebral cartilages. Kimmel et al, 1995.]

zona incerta	UBERON_0001907	[The zona incerta is a horizontally elongated region of gray matter cells in the subthalamus below the thalamus. Its connections project extensively over the brain from the cerebral cortex down into the spinal cord. Its function is unknown though several have been proposed related to 'limbic-motor integration' such as controlling visceral activity and pain; gating sensory input and synchronizing cortical and subcortical brain rhythms. Its dysfunction may play a role in central pain syndrome. It is also been identified as a promising deep brain stimulation therapy target for treating Parkinsons Disease. Its existence was first described by Auguste Forel in 1877 as a 'region of which nothing certain can be said'. A hundred and thirty years later in 2007, Nadia Urbain and Martin Deschênes of Université Laval noted that the 'zona incerta is among the least studied regions of the brain; its name does not even appear in the index of many textbooks.
