Preferred term labels:

• antimesosalpinx Addresses part of #3414 NTR antimesosalpinx #3420

• mesosalpinx epithelium

• antimesosalpinx epithelium

• mesosalpinx muscularus

• antimesosalpinx muscularus

Synonyms
antimesosalpinx = posterior free edge of mesosalpinx

Definition (free text, please give PubMed ID)
antimesosalpinx is the posterior free edge of the mesosalpinx.

mesosalpinx epithelium is composed of simple squamous epithelium that forms the outer layer of the mesosalpinx.

mesosalpinx muscularus The muscular layer (myosalpinx or tunica muscularis) consists primarily of an inner layer of circularly arranged muscle fibers covered by an outer layer of longitudinally oriented fibers. These longitudinally arranged fibers are continuous with the smooth muscle present in the mesosalpinx.

mesosalpinx muscularus

I suspect that this structure might be referring to the myosalpinx.), or tunica muscularis. If it is the case, it is a separate layer than the mesosalpinx, and therefore it wouldn't need a term for antimesosalpinx muscularis. I don't think that the mesosalpinx have a muscular layer.

Hi Ellen & Aleix,

Having consulted further with Kate, I wanted to get back to you with more specificity on the placement of the new functional tissue unit ontological terms we need added for Fallopian tube.

So, under "muscle layer of oviduct", should be placed:
mesosalpinx muscularus
antimesosalpinx muscularus

And under "mucosa of fallopian tube", should be placed:
mesosalpinx epithelium
antimesosalpinx epithelium
All of these terms would of course apply to both the left and right organs.
Does that give you what you need, in order to have these new terms added and published?

@aleixpuigb please see the extra info provided by fallopian tube experts in previous comment.
