| Remak's fibres | A fibre having no myelin covering (CNS); a naked axon; in the PNS represented by all axons lying in troughs in a single Schwann cell (Schwann cell unit); a slow conducting fibre. Synonym: gray fibres, nonmedullated fibres, Remak's fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Remak's ganglia | Groups of nerve cells in the wall of the venous sinus where it joins the right atrium of the heart, autonomic ganglia in nerves of the stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Remak's nuclear division | <cell biology> An unusual form of nuclear division, in which the nucleus simply constricts, rather like a cell without chromosome condensation or spindle formation. Partitioning of daughter chromosomes is haphazard. Observed in some Protozoa. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Remak's plexus | A gangliated plexus of unmyelinated nerve fibres, derived chiefly from the superior mesenteric plexus, ramifying in the intestinal submucosa. Synonym: plexus submucosus, Meissner's plexus, Remak's plexus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Remak's reflex | Plantar flexion of the first three toes and, sometimes, the foot with extension of the knee induced by stroking of the upper anterior surface of the thigh; it occurs when the conducting paths in the cord are interrupted. (05 Mar 2000) |
