outer nuclear layer of retina

Preferred Label : outer nuclear layer of retina;

Uberon definition : The layer within the retina where the photoreceptor cell bodies reside.;

Uberon synonym : stratum nucleare externum (retina); neural retina outer nuclear layer; retina outer nuclear layer; retinal outer nuclear layer;

Uberon related term : retinal outer nuclear layers; retina, outer nuclear layer; external nuclear layer; layer of outer granules;

Uberon narrow term : ONL;

Uberon broad term : outer nuclear layer;

Uberon Homology note : (...) an essentially similar sequence of events occurs during the embryonic development of the vertebrate eye. The eye initially develops as a single median evagination of the diencephalon that soon bifurcates to form the paired optic vesicles. As each optic vesicle grows towards the body surface, its proximal part narrows as the optic stalk, and its distal part invaginates to form a two-layered optic cup. (...) The outer layer of the optic cup becomes the pigment layer of the retina, whereas the inner layer differentiates into the photoreceptive cells and neuronal layers of the retina.[well established][VHOG];
