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 tympanic cavity muscle morphology
go back to main search page
Accession:MP:0030156 term browser browse the term
Definition:any structural anomaly of either of the two tiny striated muscles (tensor tympani and stapedius) located within the tympanic cavity; these muscles contract in response to loud noise, inhibiting the vibrations of the malleus, incus and stapes, and reducing the transmission of sound to the inner ear
Synonyms:exact_synonym: abnormal auditory ossicle muscle morphology;   abnormal intratympanic muscle morphology;   abnormal middle ear muscle morphology
