Label	Id	Description
cardia of stomach	UBERON_0001162	[The part of the stomach attached to the esophagus. The cardia begins immediately distal to the z-line of the gastroeosphageal junction, where the squamous epithelium of the esophagus gives way to the columnar epithelium of the gastrointestinal tract[WP]]
mucosa of cardia of stomach	UBERON_0004996	[A mucosa that is part of a cardia of stomach [Automatically generated definition].]
pyloric canal	UBERON_0008858	[The short narrow part of the stomach extending from the pyloric antrum to the pyloric sphincter]
pyloric sphincter	UBERON_0001202	[A strong ring of smooth muscle at the end of the pyloric canal which lets food pass from the stomach to the duodenum. It receives sympathetic innervation from the celiac ganglion[WP].]
pyloric antrum	UBERON_0001165	[the area at the bottom of the stomach on the caudal side of the pyloric canal that contains gastrin-producing G cells, which stimulate acid production, and the luminal pH-sensitive population of somatostatin-producing D cells]
stomach smooth muscle circular layer	UBERON_0008857	[The middle layer of the muscularis; it is continuous with the circular layer of the esophagus, but is absent in the fundus and lies concentric to the longitudinal axis of the stomach; the circular layer is normally tonically constricted forming a functional pyloric sphincter, which controls the movement of chyme into the duodenum]
stomach muscularis externa	UBERON_0008856	[The smooth muscle layer of the stomach wall that functions to churn and mix food and gastric secretions as well as to move food along the digestive tract to the intestines]
myenteric nerve plexus	UBERON_0002439	[One of two ganglionated neural networks which together form the enteric nervous system. The myenteric (Auerbach's) plexus is located between the longitudinal and circular muscle layers of the gut. Its neurons project to the circular muscle, to other myenteric ganglia, to submucosal ganglia, or directly to the epithelium, and play an important role in regulating and patterning gut motility.]
stomach smooth muscle inner oblique layer	UBERON_0008862	[The innermost layer of the muscularis; it is not present in all sections of the stomach but is clearly seen in the fundus and near the lesser curvature of the corpus; the oblique fibers disappear distally (towards the pyloric antrum); the oblique layer is responsible for creating the motion that churns and physically breaks down the food]
wall of stomach	UBERON_0001167	[the layered structure that makes up the stomach, typiclly consists of a serous coat, a muscular coat, a mucous membrane, and other tissue layers in between]
placenta metrial gland	UBERON_0008855	[A group of granular epithelial cells in the uterine muscle beneath the placenta that develops during pregnancy in rodents and some other species.]
root of molar tooth	UBERON_0008854	[The part of a molar tooth that is implanted in the gum; mandibular and maxillary molars usually have two and three roots, respectively.]
tooth root	UBERON_0003677	[The part of a tooth that is implanted in the gum; the root is normally located below the neck of the tooth, covered by cementum rather than enamel, and attached by the periodontal ligament to the alveolar bone]
posterior recess	UBERON_2005338	[Posterior protrusion of the third ventricle.]
obsolete presumptive swim bladder	UBERON_2005336
intersegmental lymph vessel	UBERON_2005319
caudal humeral circumflex vein	UBERON_0006200
stomach smooth muscle outer longitudinal layer	UBERON_0008863	[The most superficial layer of the muscularis; it has two sections, a longitudinal layer that is common with the esophagus and ends in the corpus, and a longitudinal layer that originates in the corpus and spreads into the duodenum]
obsolete dorsal cerebral vein	UBERON_0006201
pectoral fin fold	UBERON_2005317	[The functional webs of the paired fins. They arise as a consequence of apical fold (AER) expansion and of migration of the distal mesenchyme. The fin folds are delimited by a dorsal and a ventral striated epidermis. The cells of the epidermal basal stratum are positioned on a basement membrane. Directly beneath the basement membrane of each side there is an array of actinotrichs, fibers of the extracellular matrix which act as supportive elements of the larval fin folds.]
