| haemangioendothelioma, epithelioid | A tumour of medium-to-large veins, composed of plump-to-spindled endothelial cells that bulge into vascular spaces in a tombstone-like fashion. These tumours are thought to have "borderline" aggression, where one-third develop local recurrences, but only rarely metastasize. It is unclear whether the epithelioid haemangioendothelioma is truly neoplastic or an exuberant tissue reaction, nor is it clear if this is equivalent to kimura's disease (see angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia). (12 Dec 1998) |

| nevus, epithelioid and spindle cell | A benign compound nevus occurring most often in children before puberty, composed of spindle and epithelioid cells located mainly in the dermis, sometimes in association with large atypical cells and multinucleate cells, and having a close histopathological resemblance to malignant melanoma. The tumour presents as a smooth to slightly scaly, round to oval, raised, firm papule or nodule, ranging in colour from pink-tan to purplish red, often with surface telangiectasia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| epithelioid | <anatomy> Like epithelium; as, epithelioid cells. Origin: Epithelium. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| epithelioid cell | <cell biology> In a general sense, a cell that has an appearance that is similar to that of epithelial cells: used specifically of the very flattened macrophages found in granulomas (e.g. In tubercular lesions). (18 Nov 1997) |
| epithelioid cell nevus | A benign, slightly pigmented or red superficial small skin tumour composed of spindle-shaped, epithelioid, and multinucleated cells that may appear atypical; most common in children, but also appearing in adults. Synonym: benign juvenile melanoma, epithelioid cell nevus, spindle cell nevus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epithelioid cells | Characteristic cells of granulomatous hypersensitivity. They appear as large, flattened cells with increased endoplasmic reticulum. They are believed to be activated macrophages that have differentiated as a result of prolonged antigenic stimulation. Further differentiation or fusion of epithelioid cells is thought to produce multinucleated giant cells (giant cells). (12 Dec 1998) |
| leiomyoma, epithelioid | A relatively rare smooth muscle tumour found most frequently in the wall of the gastrointestinal tract, especially in the stomach. It is similar to other smooth muscle tumours but may become very large and haemorrhage and exhibit small cystic areas. Simple excision is almost always curative. (12 Dec 1998) |
| agranular endoplasmic reticulum | Endoplasmic reticulum that is lacking in ribosomal granules; involved in synthesis of complex lipids and fatty acids, detoxification of drugs, carbohydrate synthesis, and sequestering of Ca++. Synonym: smooth-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reticulum | Origin: L. Dim. Of rete a net. <anatomy> The second stomach of ruminants, in which folds of the mucous membrane form hexagonal cells; also called the honeycomb stomach. The neuroglia. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| reticulum cell | Cells of the reticuloendothelial system, found particularly in lymph nodes, bone marrow and spleen. In lymph nodes they are stromal cells and probably not reticuloendothelial cells in the current sense of that term. (18 Nov 1997) |
| reticulum cell sarcoma | <tumour> Obsolete term for histiocytic lymphoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reticulum trabeculare sclerae | The network of fibres (pectinate ligaments) at the iridocorneal angle between the anterior chamber of the eye and the venous sinus of the sclera; it contains spaces between the fibres that are involved in drainage of the aqueous humor, and is composed of two portions: the corneoscleral part, the part attached to the sclera, and the uveal part, the part attached to the iris. Synonym: reticulum trabeculare sclerae, Gerlach's valvula, Hueck's ligament, ligamentum annulare bulbi, pectinate ligaments of iridocorneal angle, pillar of iris, trabecular meshwork, trabecular network, trabecular zone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Golgi internal reticulum | <cell biology> Intracellular stack of membrane bounded vesicles in which glycosylation and packaging of secreted proteins takes place. Part of the GERL complex. Synonym: Golgi body, Golgi vesicles, dictyosome (in plants), parabasal body (in flagellate protozoa). (11 Jan 1998) |
| granular endoplasmic reticulum | Endoplasmic reticulum in which ribosomal granules are applied to the cytoplasmic surface of the cisternae; involved in the synthesis and secretion of protein via membrane-bound vesicles to the extracellular space. Synonym: chromidial substance, ergastoplasm, rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rough endoplasmic reticulum | <cell biology> Membrane organelle of eukaryotes that forms sheets and tubules. Contains the receptor for the signal receptor particle and binds ribosomes engaged in translating mRNA for secreted proteins and the majority of transmembrane proteins. Also a site of membrane lipid synthesis. The membrane is very similar to the nuclear outer membrane. The lumen contains a number of proteins that possess the C terminal signal KDEL. (17 Dec 1997) |
