urethral gland synonyms #1272

Open obophenotype-user opened 11 years ago

Please add the following synonyms for "abnormal female urethral gland morphology [MP:0011793]"

NEW SYN: abnormal periurethral gland morphology NEW SYN: abnormal Skene's gland morphology NEW SYN: abnormal female prostate morphology NEW SYN: abnormal para-urethral gland morphology NEW SYN: abnormal U-spot morphology NEW SYN: abnormal lesser vestibular gland morphology NEW SYN: abnormal Schueller's gland morphology NEW SYN: abnormal glandula vestibulares minor morphology

NOTE: CORRECT THE TYPO IN EXISTING SYNONYM abnormal Guerin (Guérin) gland morphology (the "é" is missing, currently appears as Gurin)

AMEND THE DEFINITION: any structural anomaly of the numerous mucous-secreting glands found in several female mammalian species (including rodents and humans) on the anterior wall of the vagina, around the lower end of the urethra, and possessing a common paraurethral duct which opens (on each side) near the external urethral orifice; they are homologous with the prostate gland in males, have highly variable anatomy, and are believed to be the source of the female ejaculate, a lubricating fluid with a similar consistency to male prostatic fluid that is expelled through the urethra during sexual stimulation; like the male prostate, these glands are susceptible to infection (skenitis), cyst development, and cancer

Next, please amend the existing synonym for "abnormal male urethral gland morphology [MP:0011794]" to read as abnormal Littre's (Littré's) gland morphology (the "é" is missing, currently appears as Littr)

Thanks

The abnormal Guerin (Guérin) gland morphology synonym and the abnormal Littre's (Littré's) gland morphology synonym appear correctly on my system/browser and in the ontology file. I suspect there are issues with special characters rendering in odd browser-dependent ways. I'll have to investigate, but there may not be anything we can do. Status set at pending until resolved.

New synonyms were added and the definition is amended as above.
