| cytopharynx | An organelle in certain flagellates and ciliates that serves as a gullet through which food material passes from the cytostome to the cell interior; food passed is collected in food vacuoles, into which digestive enzymes are secreted. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytophil group | The atom group in the antibody (amboceptor) that binds it to the cell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytophilic | <biology> Refers to substances which are attracted to binding cells, like cytophilic antibodies. (09 Oct 1997) |
| cytophilic antibody | Antibody that has an affinity for certain kinds of cells, in addition to and unrelated to its specific affinity for the antigen that induced it, because of the properties of the Fc portion of the heavy chain. See: heterocytotropic antibody, homocytotropic antibody, cytotropic antibody test. Synonym: anaphylactic antibody, cytophilic antibody. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytophotometry | A method for the study of certain organic compounds within cells, in situ, by measuring the light intensities of the selectively stained areas of cytoplasm. The compounds studied and their locations in the cells are made to fluoresce and are observed under a microscope. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cytophylactic | Relating to cytophylaxis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytophylaxis | Protection of cells against lytic agents. Origin: cyto-+ G. Phylaxis, a guarding (05 Mar 2000) |

| cytopipette | A slightly curved, blunt end pipette usually made of glass and fitted with a rubber bulb to provide gentle negative pressure for the collection of vaginal secretions for cytological examination. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 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) |

| cytokinin |
Plant growth regulators (hormones) characterized as substances that induce cell division and cell differentiation (eg, BA, kinetin, and 2-iP). In tissue culture, these substances are associated with enhanced callus and shoot development. The compounds are derivatives of adenine.
