MAMMALIAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Mouse Adult Gross Anatomy Ontology and Mammalian Phenotype Ontology are downloaded weekly from the Mouse Genome Informatics databases at Jackson Laboratories (ftp://ftp.informatics.jax.org/pub/reports/index.html). For more information about these ontologies, see the MGI Publications Page at http://www.informatics.jax.org/mgihome/other/publications.shtml.

Term:abnormal intraorbital lacrimal gland morphology
go back to main search page
Accession:MP:0013441 term browser browse the term
Definition:any structural anomaly of the small intra-orbital lacrimal glands that are located superficially at the lateral canthus, where both the lacrimal gland and Harderian gland ducts open
Comment:The mouse has two pairs of lacrimal glands. The larger exorbital (extra-orbital) glands are located subcutaneously at the anteroventral base of the ear adjacent to the parotid gland; the smaller intra-orbital glands are located superficially at the lateral canthus, where both the lacrimal gland and Harderian gland ducts open
