| segmenting body | A sporozoan trophozoite (vegetative form) that reproduces by schizogony, producing a varied number of daughter trophozoites or merozoites. See: meront, segmenter. Synonym: agamont, segmenting body. Origin: schizo-+ G. On (ont-), a being (05 Mar 2000) |
| human body | The human being as a non-anatomical and non-zoological entity. The emphasis is on the philosophical or artistic treatment of the human being, and includes lay and social attitudes toward the body in history. (12 Dec 1998) |

| spongy body of penis | The median column of erectile tissue located between and ventral to the two corpora cavernosa penis; posteriorly it expands into the bulbus penis and anteriorly it terminates as the enlarged glans penis; it is traversed by the urethra. Synonym: corpus cavernosum urethrae, spongy body of penis. Corpus spongiosum urethrae muliebris, the submucous coat of the female urethra, containing a venous network that insinuates itself between the muscular layers, giving to them an erectile nature.

| nerve cell body | The part of the neuron that includes the nucleus but excludes the processes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuroepithelial body | A corpuscular aggregate of nonciliated cells containing neurosecretory substance found in normal bronchial epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striate body | The caudate and lentiform (lenticular) nuclei; the striate appearance on section is caused by slender fascicles of myelinated fibres. Histologically, the striate body can be subdivided into the generally small-celled striatum, consisting of the caudate nucleus and the outer segment of the lentiform nucleus (the putamen), and a large-celled globus pallidus composed of the two segments. Synonym: corpus striatum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subacute inclusion body encephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |

| nu body | <cell biology> Repeating units of organisation of chromatin fibres in chromosomes, consisting of around 200 base pairs and two molecules each of the histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. most of the DNA (around 140 base pairs) is believed to be wound around a core formed by the histones, the remainder joins adjacent nucleosomes, thus forming a structure reminiscent of a string of beads. Origin: Gr. Soma = body (18 Nov 1997) |
| nuclei of mamillary body | A single large-celled lateral nucleus and a larger bipartite medial nucleus together comprising the mamillary body; present in the caudal hypothalamus. Synonym: nuclei corporis mamillaris, nucleus of the mamillary body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus of lateral geniculate body | Nucleus of the thalamus characterised by six layers of cells, two parvicellular, four magnocellular, alternating with thin layers of fibres; receives bilateral visual input, projects to calcarine cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus of medial geniculate body | The nerve cell groups composing the medial geniculate body (corpus geniculatum mediale). Synonym: nucleus corporis geniculati medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
