| xiphoid | <anatomy> Like a sword; ensiform. Of or pertaining to the xiphoid process; xiphoidian. Origin: Gr. Sword-shaped; xifos a sword + form, shape: cf. F. Xiphoide. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
|---|---|
| xiphoid cartilage | <anatomy> Composed of cartilage at the inferior aspect of the sternal body. (27 Sep 1997) |
| xiphoid process | <anatomy> Composed of cartilage at the inferior aspect of the sternal body. (27 Sep 1997) |
| hypersensitive xiphoid syndrome | <syndrome> Abnormal tenderness of the xiphoid, often associated with spontaneous pains in the chest, upper abdomen, and shoulders. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adhering junction | <cell biology> A type of junction between cells forming tissues that are subjected to stretching and pulling, such as the skin. This type of junction provides very tight contact between adjacent cells and allows the cells to fuction as a unit. Belt desmosomes are attachment sites that circle the cell, and spot desmosomes are small points of attachment across the cells surface. (15 Jan 1998) |
| amelodental junction | Amelodentinal junction, rarely used terms for dentinoenamel junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amnioembryonic junction | The line of amniotic attachment to the periphery of the embryonic disk. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anorectal junction | Transition from rectum to anal canal; corresponds to the perineal flexure, or the level at which the gut perforates the pelvic diaphragm; here the rectal ampulla narrows abruptly into a narrow slip. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior junction line | Radiographic projection of the mediastinal tissue septum between the upper lobes behind the sternum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| A-V junction | Imprecisely defined zone surrounding and including the A-V node and the adjacent atrial and ventricular myocardium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardioesophageal junction | The abrupt transition from oesophageal mucosa to that of the cardiac portion of stomach, demarcated internally in the living by the z-line, and approximated externally by the cardiac notch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gap junction | <cell biology> A junction between two cells consisting of many pores that allow the passage of molecules up to about 900D. Each pore is formed by an hexagonal array (connexon) of six transmembrane proteins (connexins) in each plasma membrane: when mated together the pores open, allowing communication and the interchange of metabolites between cells. Electrical synapses are gap junctions and metabolic cooperation depends upon the formation of gap junctions. (18 Nov 1997) |
| manubriosternal junction | The angle between the manubrium and the body of the sternum at the manubriosternal junction. Marks the level of the second costal cartilage (rib) for counting ribs or intercostal spaces. Denotes level of aortic arch, bifurcation of trachea, and T4/T5 intervertebral disc. Synonym: angulus sterni, Louis' angle, Ludwig's angle, manubriosternal junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rectosigmoid junction | <anatomy> The site where the sigmoid colon becomes the rectum; usually takes the form of an acute angle, demarcated externally by a discontinuation of appendices epiploicae, a spreading out of the teniae coli to completely encircle the rectum, and consequently, termination of the sacculations (haustrae) between the teniae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cell junction | <cell biology> Specialised junctions between cells. See: adherens junctions, desmosomes, tight junctions, gap junctions. (26 Mar 1998) |
