communicating artery UBERON_0006347 [An artery that connects two larger arteries.]
circle of Willis UBERON_0003709 [A circle of arteries that supply blood to the brain. The Circle of Willis comprises the following arteries: Anterior cerebral artery (left and right); Anterior communicating artery; Internal carotid artery (left and right); Posterior cerebral artery (left and right); Posterior communicating artery (left and right).The basilar artery and middle cerebral arteries, supplying the brain, are also considered part of the circle.]
subfascicular nucleus UBERON_0002959
midline nuclear group UBERON_0002705 [The midline nuclear group (or midline thalamic nuclei) a region of the thalamus consisting of the following nuclei: paraventricular nucleus of thalamus (nucleus paraventricularis thalami) - not to be confused with paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus paratenial nucleus (nucleus parataenialis) reuniens nucleus (nucleus reuniens) rhomboidal nucleus (nucleus commissuralis rhomboidalis) subfascicular nucleus (nucleus subfascicularis) [WP,unvetted].]
carotid body UBERON_0001629 [A small epithelioid structure consisting of a small cluster of chemoreceptive and supporting cells located near the bifurcation of the common carotid artery that serves as a chemoreceptive organ that senses the pH, carbon dioxide, and oxygen concentrations in the blood and plays a crucial role in their homeostatic control.]
nonchromaffin paraganglion UBERON_0034979 [A cluster of chemoreceptive and support cells associated with blood vessels and nerves.]
chemoreceptor cell CL_0000206 [A cell specialized to detect chemical substances and relay that information centrally in the nervous system. Chemoreceptors may monitor external stimuli, as in taste and olfaction, or internal stimuli, such as the concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood.]
type II cell of carotid body CL_0002081 [This cell resembles a glia cell, express the glial marker S100 and act as a supporting cell to type I cell. This cell is located in a small cluster of type I and type II cells near the fork of the carotid artery.]
type I cell of carotid body CL_0002292 [A round or oval neuroepithelial cell that contacts other type I cells or capillaries. They occur in clusters that are surrounded by sheath cells (type-II cells) in the carotid body. This cell type is capable of secreting a number of neurotransmitters.]
detection of reduced oxygen by carotid body chemoreceptor signaling GO_0003039 [The process in which information about the levels of oxygen are received and are converted to a molecular signal by chemoreceptors in a carotid body.]
common carotid artery plus branches UBERON_0001530 [A bilaterally paired branched artery that originates from the aortic arches and divides into and includes as parts the internal and external carotid arteries[cjm].]
ubiquitin-like protein peptidase activity GO_0019783 [An isopeptidase activity that cleaves ubiquitin or ubiquitin-like proteins (ULP; e.g. ATG8, ISG15, NEDD8, SUMO) from target proteins.]
peptidase activity GO_0008233 [Catalysis of the hydrolysis of a peptide bond. A peptide bond is a covalent bond formed when the carbon atom from the carboxyl group of one amino acid shares electrons with the nitrogen atom from the amino group of a second amino acid.]
dorsal nasal artery UBERON_0001623 [The dorsal nasal artery (nasal artery) is an artery of the head. It is one of the two terminal branches of the ophthalmic artery. [WP,unvetted].]
terminal branch of ophthalmic artery UBERON_0015156 [The two terminal branches of the ophthalmic artery in humans are the dorsal nasal artery and the supratrochlear artery.]
dorsal hypothalamic area UBERON_0002954 [A relatively small region of the hypothalamus located inferior to the hypothalamic sulcus.]
hypothalamus UBERON_0001898 [A specialized brain region of the ventral diencephalon arising near the end of the segmentation period; the embryonic hypothalamic region will give rise to the posterior pituitary gland as well as a number of brain nuclei. [ZFA]. One of the most important functions of the hypothalamus is to link the nervous system to the endocrine system via the pituitary gland (hypophysis).[Wikipedia].]
rhomboidal nucleus UBERON_0002955
anterior cerebral artery UBERON_0001624 [One of a pair of arteries on the brain that supply oxygen to most medial portions of frontal lobes and superior medial parietal lobes. The 2 anterior cerebral arteries arise from the internal carotid artery and are part of the Circle of Willis.]
granular layer of cerebellar cortex UBERON_0002956 [The granular layer is the innermost layer of the cerebellar cortex. This layer contains densely packed small neurons, mostly granule cells. Some Golgi cells are found at the outer border. Granule neurons send parallel fibers to the upper molecular layer, where they synapse with Purkinje cell dendrites. Mossy fibers from the pontine nuclei in the white matter synapse with granule cell axons, Golgi cell axons and unipolar brush interneuron axons at cerebellar glomeruli in the granule cell layer.]
