Ontology: Zebrafish Environment Condition Ontology [ZECO:0000237]
Name: paclitaxel
Synonyms: (2aR-(2aalpha,4beta,4abeta,6beta,9alpha(alpha R*,betaS*),11alpha,12alpha,12balpha))-beta-(Benzoylamino)-alpha-hydroxybenzenepropanoic acid 6,12b-bis(acetyloxy)-12-(benzoyloxy)-2a,3,4,4a,5,6,9,10,11,12,12a,12b-dodecahydro-4,11-dihydroxy-4a,8,13,13-tetramet, 4alpha,10beta-bis(acetyloxy)-13alpha-[(2S,3S)-3-benzamido-2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoyloxy]-1,7beta-dihydroxy-9-oxo-5beta,20-epoxytax-11-en-2alpha-yl benzoate, 5beta,20-Epoxy-1,2-alpha,4,7beta,10beta,13alpha-hexahydroxytax-11-en-9-one 4,10-diacetate 2-benzoate 13-ester with (2R,3S)-N-benzoyl-3-phenylisoserine, Paclitaxel, TAXOL, Taxol A
Definition: A tetracyclic diterpenoid isolated originally from the bark of the Pacific yew tree, Taxus brevifolia. It is a mitotic inhibitor used in cancer chemotherapy. Note that the use of the former generic name 'taxol' is now limited, as Taxol is a registered trade mark.

transection: motor neuron
Name: transection
Synonyms:
Definition: Cutting transversly of an organ or tissue. Type of cutting often used to divide the spinal cord to investigate neural regeneration in zebrafish.
Ontology: Zebrafish Environment Condition Ontology [ZECO:0000181]
Name: motor neuron
Synonyms: motoneuron
Definition: An efferent neuron that passes from the central nervous system or a ganglion toward or to a muscle and conducts an impulse that causes movement.
