4606 Pineal Crx Glut_1

Full Name: 4606 Pineal Crx Glut_1
Closest Ontology Term: pinealocyteCL:0000652
Synonyms Terms that have the same, or nearly the same, meaning as the selected cell type.: unknown
Category Class of which the cell type is a subclass.: glandular secretory epithelial cellCL:0000150
Ontology Assessment Disagreements with any aspect of the Cell Ontology.: —
Marker Gene Evidence Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.: Cngb3, Ush2a
Canonical Marker Genes: unknown
Rationale: Consistent with this cell set being composed of Pinealocytes, a combination of Pinealocyte markers Gngt1 and Crx can identify the cells in this cluster with a confidence (F-beta score) of 0.91 in the context of glutamatergic cells (Pinealocytes release glutamate) from the hippocampal formation dissection (which includes the pineal gland). https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1600-079x.1996.tb00284.x,https://doi.org/10.3389/fendo.2019.00590 Crx|Gngt1|Tph1|Asmt|Gngt2
Rationale DOI: NA

Set of Labels Description: The finest level of cell type definition in the mouse whole brain taxonomy. Cells within a cluster share similar characteristics and belong to the same supertype.
Annotation Method: manual
