mucous neck cell http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/CL_0000651
A mucus-secreting cell, with numerous apical secretory vesicles containing mucins; nucleus are basally displaced; numerous at the neck of mucus secreting glands
mucous neck cell of gastric gland http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/CL_0002181
A neck cell that secretes mucus within the stomach. Its products are distinct histochemically from those of the surface mucous cells of stomach.
Reason for merge
As far as I can gather, the term mucous neck cell is only used for cells in the gastric glands.
Suggested revised def:
A columnar epithelial mucous secreting cell located in the neck of the gastric glands. These cells have numerous apical secretory vesicles containing mucins and a basally displaced nucleus. The mucous they secrete is distinct histochemically from that of the surface mucous cells of stomach.
Make sure to add links to GO for mucous secretion & mucin granules + a link to Uberon for location (as precise as possible).
