CARO
Welcome to CARO!
This wiki (hosted on the main NCBO public wiki) will contain information on the new CARO reference ontology of anatomy, combining FMA and model organism anatomical ontologies. How this will be achieved is yet to be decided...
[posted by MAH]
A draft version, compiled largely at the NCBO anatomy workshop in September, 06, is posted here for comment. Please email the anatomy listserve or the caro committe with suggestions and comments.

Use cases

Neural tube development:
The vertebrate nervous system begins its development as a neural plate, which then "rolls up" into the neural tube (this is very simplified -there are a variety of mechanisms to get from a plate to a tube). The neural tube develops from the neural plate in a generally anterior to posterior direction. At any given time during this transition, both exist. A picture of this can be seen here: http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/on-line/lifecycle/11.asp
An annotation example could be that at a given stage, gene x is in neural tube but not neural plate, gene y is in both, and gene z is in neural plate but not neural tube.
[details of the problems of encoding this in an ontology of anatomical continuants to follow shortly (ds)]
Lateral line development:
The lateral line placode gives rise to two entities, the lateral line ganglion and the lateral line primordium. A portion of cells in the placode move away posteriorly as the primordium, and the remaining portion of the placode will become the ganglion. The primordium deposits neuromasts as it travels posteriorly. These neuromasts will eventually be connected together by way of the lateral line nerve, which has its cell bodies in the ganglion and sends signals to the brain. The nerve and the neuromasts and the ganglion are are collectively referred to as the lateral line. This term is often used before the process is complete. Here is a picture:

Early urogenital development (posted by MAH for Jonathan Bard and Stuart Aitken)
This informal text description of the early urogenital system tries to link the developmental anatomy (tissues) with their associated cell types to (1) the underlying processes underpinning development and (2) the changes in differentiation that give rise to new cells types. The description uses DEFINED TIME SLOTS (from Theiller stages (TS) = 12h here, partly for standardization and partly as this is the granularity of GXD, the mouse gene-expression database). A simplified graphical version is given at the end.
It is also worth noting that, in principle at least, each time-dependent tissue, cell type and developmental process can be assigned an EMAP, CL or GO ID, and the tissues can be linked to the GXD database to give gene expression data. It is thus relatively straightforward to produce a complete systems description of the molecules, cell types, tissues and processes that enable the intermediate mesenchyme to produce the gonad and the metanephros.
