| resting cell | A quiescent cell; one not undergoing mitosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| resting wandering cell | A relatively immotile macrophage found in connective tissue, lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow. Synonym: resting wandering cell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| restructured cell | The viable cell produced by fusion of a karyoplast with a cytoplast. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reticular cell | A cell with processes making contact with those of other similar cell's to form a cellular network; along with the network of reticular fibres, the reticular cell's form the stroma of bone marrow and lymphatic tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reticularis cell | A cell of the zona reticularis of the innermost part of the adrenal cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reticuloendothelial cell | A cell of the reticuloendothelial system. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reticulum cell | Cells of the reticuloendothelial system, found particularly in lymph nodes, bone marrow and spleen. In lymph nodes they are stromal cells and probably not reticuloendothelial cells in the current sense of that term. (18 Nov 1997) |
| reticulum cell sarcoma | <tumour> Obsolete term for histiocytic lymphoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| goblet cell | 1. <pathology> Cell of the epithelial lining of small intestine that secretes mucus and has a very well developed Golgi apparatus. 2. <zoology> Cell type characteristic of larval lepidopteran midgut, containing a potent H ATPase and thought to be involved in maintenance of ion and pH gradients. (10 Oct 1997) |
| retinal ganglion cell | <pathology> A type of interneuron that conveys information from the retinal bipolar, horizontal and amacrine cells to the brain. (18 Nov 1997) |
| retinal pigmented epithelial cell | See: pigmented retinal epithelium, retina. (18 Nov 1997) |
| golgi cell | <pathology> A type of neuron that is found in the cerebral cortex and parts of the spinal cord. It is multipolar. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Golgi epithelial cell | A glial cell found in the cerebellar cortex. See: Bergmann's fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Golgi's cell | More specifically see: Golgi type I neuron, Golgi type II neuron. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peptic cell | <pathology> Cells of the basal part of the gastric glands of the stomach. They contain extensive rough endoplasmic reticulum and zymogen granules and secrete pepsinogen, the inactive precursor of pepsin and rennin. (18 Nov 1997) |
