Label	Id	Description
sacral nerve	UBERON_0009625	[The five sacral nerves emerge from the sacrum. Although the vertebral components of the sacrum are fused into a single bone, the sacral vertebrae are still used to number the sacral nerves. Posteriorly, they emerge from the posterior sacral foramina, and form the posterior branches of sacral nerves. Anteriorly, they emerge from the anterior sacral foramina, and contribute to the sacral plexus (S1-S4) and coccygeal plexus.]
sacral spinal cord	UBERON_0005843	[A spinal cord segment that adjacent_to a sacral region.]
vertebral canal	UBERON_0006692	[A conduit enclosed within the vertebral foramen of the vertebrae through which the spinal cord passes.]
basal ganglia of rodent	UBERON_0023920	[The basal ganglia of the rodent]
subbrachial nucleus of mouse of Franklin and Paxinos 2008	UBERON_0023927
subbrachial nucleus	UBERON_0006119	[A group of cells ventral to the nucleus of brachium of inferior colliculus in the mouse (Paxinos-2001).]
postrhinal cortex of rodent of Burwell et al 1995	UBERON_0023928	[Cortical region lying caudal to the perirhinal cortex in the rat. It encompasses the caudal levels of area 35 and the caudal portion of area 36 (ectorhinal cortex). It is bordered medially by agranular retrosplenial cortex and ventrally by the entorhinal cortex (with the exception of the caudomedial portion). The authors note that the ventral portion of the postrhinal cortex in rat may by homologous with the parahippocampal cortex in the monkey.]
mammary gland luminal epithelium	UBERON_0011950	[The inner cell layer of the mammary epithelium bilayer that lines the luminal surface of mammary gland ducts and alveoli; luminal cells have only limited contact with the underlying basement membrane and surrounding connective tissue; they are secretory epithelial cells characterized by the expression of the receptors for systemic hormones, i.e. estrogens, progesterone and prolactin.]
prostate luminal epithelium	UBERON_0011951	[A luminal layer of epithelium that is part of a prostate gland.]
hair follicle	UBERON_0002073	[A tube-like opening in the epidermis where the hair shaft develops and into which the sebaceous glands open[GO].]
arrector muscle of hair	UBERON_0002033	[A tiny smooth muscle that connects the hair follicle with the dermis.]
vibrissa unit	UBERON_0011933	[A pilosebaceuous unit that contains a strand of virbissa hair (a specialized tactile hair) with the follicle incorporating a blood sinus, heavily innervated by sensory nerves.]
venous sinus	UBERON_0006615	[A large vein or channel for the circulation of venous blood]
strand of vibrissa hair	UBERON_0006378	[A specialized hair usually employed for tactile sensation. Vibrissae hair grow around the nostrils, above the lips, and on other parts of the face of most mammals, and all primates except humans. vibrissae are different from other hairs because they are implanted in a special hair follicle incorporating a capsule of blood called a blood sinus and heavily innervated by sensory nerves[WP].]
preganglionic parasympathetic fiber	UBERON_0011930	[A cholinergic axonal fibers projecting from the CNS to a parasympathetic ganglion]
thoracic nerve	UBERON_0003726	[The twelve spinal nerves on each side of the thorax. They include eleven INTERCOSTAL NERVES and one subcostal nerve. Both sensory and motor, they supply the muscles and skin of the thoracic and abdominal walls.]
nasal hair	UBERON_0011931	[Hair in the nose]
vibrissa hair bulb	UBERON_0011936	[A bulb of hair follicle that is part of a vibrissa unit.]
bulb of hair follicle	UBERON_0005932	[Thickening of the proximal end of the hair follicle. Contains rapidly proliferating, rather undifferentiated matrix cells (transient amplifying cells), melanocytes and outer root sheath cells.]
vibrissa follicle	UBERON_0010419	[one of the tubular invaginations of the epidermis enclosing the hair roots and from which grow the vibrissae located on the muzzle and face of many species]
