neuronal cell body [GO_0043025]
The portion of a neuron that includes the nucleus, but excludes cell projections such as axons and dendrites. Note that ‘cell body’ and ‘cell soma’ are not used in the literature for cells that lack projections, nor for some cells (e.g. yeast with mating projections) that do have projections.
