| lymphocyte lymphocyte | A type of non-granular antibodies. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| pair production | <physics> The simultaneous production of an electron and a positron by an interaction of a photon or a fast charged particle with the electronic field of a nucleus or other particle. (16 Dec 1997) |
| primary production | Production of organic substances by photosynthesis, the quantity of material so produced per unit time. (09 Oct 1997) |
| production | The act or process of producing, bringing forth or making. (18 Nov 1997) |
| speech production measurement | Measurement of parameters of the speech product such as vocal tone, loudness, pitch, voice quality, articulation, resonance, phonation, phonetic structure and prosody. (12 Dec 1998) |
| steroid production rate | The total quantity of a given steroid formed in the body, usually expressed as milligrams per day; represents the sum of the glandular secretion of the steroid and extraglandular formation of it from various steroid precursors. (05 Mar 2000) |
| implantation theory of the production of endometriosis | That, at the time of menstruation, cells of the uterine mucosa pass through the fallopian tubes and escape into the pelvic cavity where they implant themselves on the peritoneum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| orphan drug production | Production of drugs or biologicals which are unlikely to be manufactured by private industry unless special incentives are provided by others. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, differentiation, b-lymphocyte | Membrane antigens associated with maturation stages of B-lymphocytes, often expressed in tumours of B-cell origin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, differentiation, t-lymphocyte | Antigens expressed on the cell membrane of T-lymphocytes during differentiation, activation, and normal and neoplastic transformation. Their phenotypic characterization is important in differential diagnosis and studies of thymic ontogeny and T-cell function. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bare lymphocyte syndrome | <syndrome> Absence of HLA antigens on peripheral mononuclear cells, which may result in immunodeficiency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| B lymphocyte | <haematology, immunology> An immunologically important lymphocyte, produced by the bone marrow, that is responsible for the production of immunoglobulins, it is the precursor of the plasma cell. The surface markers can be used to detect and differentiate chronic lymphocytic leukaemia from acute lymphocytic leukaemia. (13 Nov 1997) |
| b-lymphocyte subsets | A classification of B-lymphocytes based on structurally or functionally different populations of cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gene rearrangement, b-lymphocyte | Ordered rearrangement of b-lymphocyte variable gene regions coding for the immunoglobulin chains, thereby contributing to antibody diversity. It occurs during the differentiation of the immature b-lymphocyte. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gene rearrangement, b-lymphocyte, heavy chain | Ordered rearrangement of b-lymphocyte variable gene regions thereby contributing to antibody diversity. It occurs during the first stage of differentiation of the immature b-lymphocyte. (12 Dec 1998) |
