| cytoplasm | <cell biology> The protoplasm of a cell exclusive of that of the nucleus, it consists of a continuous aqueous solution (cytosol) and the organelles and inclusions suspended in it (phaneroplasm) and is the site of most of the chemical activities of the cell. Origin: Gr. Plasma (13 Nov 1997) |
| cytoplasmic | Relating to the cytoplasm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytoplasmic antiproteinase | <chemical> An intracellular serine proteinase inhibitor; 376 amino acids, mw 38-43 kD; amino acid sequence given in first source Pharmacological action: serine proteinase inhibitors Synonym: human cap (26 Jun 1999) |
| cytoplasmic bridge | <plant biology> Thin strand of cytoplasm linking cells as in higher plants, Volvox, between nurse cells and developing eggs and between developing sperm cells. Unlike gap junctions, allows the transfer of large macromolecules. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cytoplasmic bridges | Slender cytoplasmic strands connecting adjacent cells; in histological sections of the epidermis and other stratified squamous epithelia, the bridge's are processes attached by a desmosome and are shrinkage artifacts of fixation; true bridge's with cytoplasmic confluence exist between incompletely divided germ cells. Synonym: cell bridges, cytoplasmic bridges. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytoplasmic gene | <molecular biology> A gene which occurs outside the nucleus of an eukaryote or outside the regular chromosomes of a bacteria. (09 Oct 1997) |
| cytoplasmic granules | Stored products of a cell's metabolic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cytoplasmic inclusion bodies | See: inclusion bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytoplasmic inheritance | <genetics> Inheritance of parental characters through a nonchromosomal means, thus mitochondrial DNA is cytoplasmically inherited since the information is not segregated at mitosis. In a broader sense the organisation of a cell may be inherited through the continuity of structures from one generation to the next. It has often been speculated that the information for some structures may not be encoded in the genomic DNA, particularly in protozoa that have complex patterns of surface organelles. See: maternal inheritance. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cytoplasmic matrix | A fluid cytoplasmic substance filling the interstices of the cytoskeleton. Synonym: cell matrix, cytomatrix. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytoplasmic membrane | <cell biology> The membrane that surrounds a cells cytoplasm, separating it from the environment. It consists of a double layer of phospholipids and has proteins embedded in it. (09 Oct 1997) |
| cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus group | <virology> A group of viruses in the family Reoviridae which infects arthropods (like spiders, insects, crustaceans, horseshoe crabs, etc.). (09 Oct 1997) |
| cytoplasmic streaming | <cell biology> Bulk flow of the cytoplasm of cells. most conspicuous in large cells such as amoebae and the internodal cells of Chara where the rate of movement may be as high as 100 m/sec. See: cyclosis. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cytoplasmon | The total extranuclear genetic information of a eukaryotic cell excluding that of mitochondria and plastids. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cytokine |
Cytokines are small protein molecules that are the core of communication between immune system cells, and even between these cells and cells belonging to other tissue types. They are actively secreted by immune cells as well as other cell types. Cytokines that are produced by immune cells form a subset known as lymphokines. Their action is often local, but sometimes can have effects on the whole body. ...

| cytokinesis |
Cytokinesis refers to the division of a eukaryotic cell. Cytokinesis usually occurs after a cell has undergone nuclear division as part of mitosis or meiosis. Except for some special cases, the amount of cytoplasm in each daughter cell is the same. In animal cells, the cell membrane forms a cleavage furrow and pinches apart like a balloon. The cleavage furrow is formed by action of microfilaments. ...

| cytoplasm |
(Gr. kytos, a hollow vessel + plasma, form) The living material of the cell, exclusive of the nucleus, consisting of a complex protein matrix or gel. The part of the cell in which essential membranes and cellular organelles (mitochondria, plastids, etc.) reside.

| cytoplasmic inheritance |
Hereditary transmission dependent on the cytoplasm or structures in the cytoplasm rather than the nuclear genes; extrachromosomal inheritance. Thus, plastid characteristics in plants are inherited by a mechanism independent of nuclear genes.
