| glomerular crescent | Proliferated epithelial cells partly encircling a renal glomerulus; it occurs in glomerulonephritis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| articular crescent | A crescent-shaped intra-articular fibrocartilage found in certain joints. Synonym: meniscus articularis, articular crescent, intra-articular cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| malarial crescent | The male or female gametocyte(s) of Plasmodium falciparum, whose presence in human red blood cells is diagnostic of falciparum malaria. Synonym: crescent, sickle form. Myopic crescent, a white or grayish white crescentic area in the fundus of the eye located on the temporal side of the optic disk; caused by atrophy of the choroid, permitting the sclera to become visible. Synonym: myopic conus. Sublingual crescent, the crescent-shaped area on the floor of the mouth formed by the lingual wall of the mandible and the adjacent part of the floor of the mouth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| grey crescent | <biology> A region near the equator of the surface in the fertilized egg of various amphibia, often of greyish colour, that appears to contain special morphogenetic properties. (18 Nov 1997) |
| crescent | 1. Any figure of the shape of the moon in its first quarter. 2. The figure made by the gray columns or cornua on cross-section of the spinal cord. Synonym: malarial crescent. Origin: L. Cresco, pp. Cretus, to grow (05 Mar 2000) |
| crescent cell | <haematology, pathology> An erythrocyte that changes from the normal discoid shape to a sickled shape when the oxygen tension is low. The pesence of these cells indicates that the patient is homozygotes for the allele that codes for haemoglobin S and that the patient has sickle cell anaemia. (18 Nov 1997) |
| crescent cell anaemia | <haematology> Disease common in races of people from areas in which malaria is endemic. The cause is a point mutation in the allele that codes for the beta chain of haemoglobin with a substitution of (valine for glutamic acid at position 6. The defective haemoglobin (HbS) crystallizes readily at low oxygen tension. In consequence, erythrocytes from homozygotes change from the normal discoid shape to a sickled shape when the oxygen tension is low and these sickled cells become trapped in capillaries or damaged in transit, leading to severe anaemia. In heterozygotes, the disadvantages of the abnormal haemoglobin are apparently outweighed by increased resistance to Plasmodium falciparum malaria, probably because parasitised cells tend to sickle and are then removed from circulation. Symptoms include joint pain, acute abdominal pain, and ulcerations of the lower extremities. Origin: Gr. Haima = blood (18 Nov 1997) |
| afferent glomerular arteriole | A branch of an interlobular artery of the kidney that conveys blood to the glomerulus. Synonym: arteriola glomerularis afferens, vas afferens, afferent vessel. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anti-glomerular basement membrane disease | Glomerulonephritis, usually of a generalised proliferative crescent-forming histologic type with a rapidly progressive course, marked by circulating anti-gbm antibodies and linear deposits of immunoglobulin and complement along the glomerular basement membrane. When associated with pulmonary haemorrhage the condition is called goodpasture syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| glomerular | <nephrology> Pertaining to or of the nature of a glomerulus, especially a renal glomerulus. (14 Oct 1997) |
| glomerular capsule | The expanded beginning of a nephron composed of an inner and outer layer: the visceral layer consists of podocytes which surround a tuft of capillaries (glomerulus); the parietal layer is simple squamous epithelium which becomes cuboidal at the tubular pole. Synonym: capsula glomeruli, Bowman's capsule, malpighian capsule, Muller's capsule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glomerular cysts | Cyst's formed by dilatation of Bowman's capsules, found in rare cases of congenital polycystic kidneys. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glomerular filtration rate | <nephrology> Measure of the kidneys' ability to filter and remove waste products. (09 Oct 1997) |
| glomerular layer of olfactory bulb | A layer composed of spherical bodies, called glomeruli, formed by the synapses of mitral cells with the olfactory nerve fibres derived from the cells of the olfactory epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glomerular mesangium | The thin membrane which helps to support the capillary loops in a renal glomerulus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| glomerular nephritis | <nephrology> A variety of nephritis characterised by inflammation of the capillary loops in the glomeruli of the kidney. It occurs in acute, subacute and chronic forms and may be secondary to haemolytic streptococcal infection. Evidence also supports possible immune or autoimmune mechanisms. (18 Nov 1997) |
