Gene Set Description
Adipose - Subcutaneous
Pancreas A large lobulated gland of vertebrates that secretes digestive enzymes and the hormones insulin and glucagon.
Heart - Left Ventricle
Brain - Cerebellum
Testis A typically paired male reproductive gland that produces sperm and that in most mammals is contained within the scrotum at sexual maturity.
Cells - EBV-transformed lymphocytes
Lung One of the usually paired compound saccular thoracic organs that constitute the basic respiratory organ of air-breathing vertebrates.
Brain - Spinal cord (cervical c-1)
Cervix - Endocervix
Liver 1: A large very vascular glandular organ of vertebrates that secretes bile and causes important changes in many of the substances contained in the blood (as by converting sugars into glycogen which it stores up until required and by forming urea). 2: Any of various large compound glands associated with the digestive tract of invertebrate animals and probably concerned with the secretion of digestive enzymes.
Kidney - Medulla
Bladder A membranous sac in animals that serves as the receptacle of a liquid or contains gas.
Fallopian Tube
Skin - Not Sun Exposed (Suprapubic)
Spleen A highly vascular ductless organ that is located in the left abdominal region near the stomach or intestine of most vertebrates and is concerned with final destruction of red blood cells, filtration and storage of blood, and production of lymphocytes.
Pituitary
Whole Blood
Small Intestine - Terminal Ileum
Muscle - Skeletal
Minor Salivary Gland
Stomach A dilatation of the alimentary canal of a vertebrate communicating anteriorly with the esophagus and posteriorly with the duodenum.
Prostate
Thyroid
Adrenal Gland Either of a pair of complex endocrine organs near the anterior medial border of the kidney consisting of a mesodermal cortex that produces glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid, and androgenic hormones and an ectodermal medulla that produces epinephrine and norepinephrine.
Heart - Atrial Appendage
Brain - Hypothalamus
Esophagus - Mucosa
Nerve - Tibial
Colon - Transverse
Cells - Cultured fibroblasts
Ovary One of the typically paired essential female reproductive organs that produce eggs and in vertebrates female sex hormones.
Brain - Substantia nigra
Kidney - Cortex
Brain - Amygdala
Skin - Sun Exposed (Lower leg)
Adipose - Visceral (Omentum)
Artery - Aorta
Brain - Nucleus accumbens (basal ganglia)
Colon - Sigmoid
Artery - Tibial
Esophagus - Muscularis
Uterus An organ of the female mammal for containing and usually for nourishing the young during development previous to birth.
Breast - Mammary Tissue
Vagina A canal in a female mammal that leads from the uterus to the external orifice of the genital canal.
Brain - Hippocampus
Brain - Cerebellar Hemisphere
Cervix - Ectocervix
Brain - Frontal Cortex (BA9)
Brain - Putamen (basal ganglia)
Esophagus - Gastroesophageal Junction
Brain - Cortex
Artery - Coronary
Brain - Caudate (basal ganglia)
Brain - Anterior cingulate cortex (BA24)
