| progressive supranuclear palsy | A disorder that is associated with nerve cell destruction and progressive lack of coordination, neck stiffness, trunk stiffness, problems with eye movement and mild dementia. Disorders that are similar include Alzheimer's disease, cerebellar dysfunction, Jakob-Creutzfeldt disease and Parkinson's disease. The cause for progressive supranuclear palsy is unknown, but is likely a degenerative nerve disorder that is somehow triggered by a viral infection. Pathologic changes include nerve cell damage and destruction of myelin sheath. There is no known cure. (27 Sep 1997) |
|---|---|
| supranuclear | Above (cranial to) the level of the motor neurons of the spinal or cranial nerves; the pathways the suprasegmental nerve fibres follow to reach the motor cell bodies in the brainstem; as used in clinical neurology, supranuclear indicates disorders of movement caused by destruction or functional impairment of brain structures other than the motor neurons, such as the motor cortex, pyramidal tract, or striate body; e.g., supranuclear palsy, as distinguished from the nuclear (or flaccid, or "lower motor neuron") paralysis that results from destruction or functional impairment of the motor neurons or their axons in a peripheral nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| supranuclear lesion | Injury to cerebral descending (corticonuclear) fibres above the brainstem or spinal motor nerve nucleus. Synonym: upper motor neuron lesion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| supranuclear palsy, progressive | A progressive neurological disease usually of the fifth decade characterised by supranuclear ophthalmoplegia especially paralysis of downward gaze, pseudobulbar palsy, gait disturbance, dysathria, truncal dystonia, memory and personality deterioration, and dementia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| supranuclear paralysis | Paralysis due to lesions above the primary motor neurons. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alternative oxidase pathway | Pathway of mitochondrial electron transport in higher plants, particularly in fruits and seeds, that does not involve cytochrome oxidase and thus is resistant to cyanide. (18 Nov 1997) |
| alternative pathway | See: complement activation. (18 Nov 1997) |
| anabolic pathway | <biochemistry> A reaction or series of reactions in a metabolic pathway that synthesise complex molecules from simpler ones, usually requiring the input of energy. Compare: catabolic pathway. (09 Oct 1997) |
| auditory pathway | Neural paths and connections within the central nervous system, beginning at the organ of Corti's hair cells, continuing along the eighth nerve, and terminating at the auditory cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| GABA pathway | The pathway that ultimately converts 4-aminobutyrate to succinate; succinate is then converted to alpha-ketoglutarate, via the tricarboxylic acid cycle, which is then acted upon by glutamate dehydrogenase; glutamate is then decarboxylated to reform 4-aminobutyrate; an important pathway for those cells which make this neuroactive molecule. Synonym: GABA pathway. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Palade pathway | <cell biology> The routing of proteins from the site of their synthesis to the final cellular or secreted position. Several different pathways are known and others suspected. Glycosylation of the proteins may provide specific address labels for the proteins. (18 Nov 1997) |
| catabolic pathway | <biochemistry> A series of reactions in a metabolic pathway that break down complex compounds into simpler ones, usually releasing energy in the process. Compare: anabolic pathway. (16 Mar 1998) |
| pathway | 1. A collection of axons establishing a conduction route for nerve impulses from one group of nerve cells to another group or to an effector organ composed of muscle or gland cells. 2. Any sequence of chemical reactions leading from one compound to another; if taking place in living tissue, usually referred to as a biochemical pathway. (05 Mar 2000) |
| visual pathway | Neural paths and connections within the central nervous system, beginning with the retina and terminating in the occipital cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pentose phosphate pathway | <biochemistry> A pathway of hexose oxidation in which glucose-6-phosphate undergoes two successive oxidations by NADP, the final one being an oxidative decarboxylation to form a pentose phosphate. Diverges from this when glucose-6-phosphate is oxidized to ribose 5 phosphate by the enzyme glucose-6 phosphate dehydrogenase. This step reduces NADP to NADPH, generating a source of reducing power in cells for use in reductive biosyntheses. In plants, part of the pathway functions in the formation of hexoses from carbon dioxide in photosynthesis. Also important as source of pentoses, for example for nucleic acid biosynthesis. This pathway is the main metabolic pathway in neutrophils, congenital deficiency in the pathway produces sensitivity to infection. Alternative metabolic route to Embden Meyerhof pathway for breakdown of glucose. (18 Nov 1997) |
