| Negri body | Acidophilic cytoplasmic inclusion (mass of nucleocapsids) characteristic of rabies virus infection. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| 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) |
| nodular body | In fungi, a compact, roughly spherical or squarish structure formed by coiling and twisting of the end of a hypha; considered to be abortive growths toward sexual reproduction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 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) |
| nucleus of the 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) |
| suprarenal body | See adrenal gland. (12 Dec 1998) |
| demilune body | A circular body of extreme transparency except for a crescentic punctate substance on one edge which contains haemoglobin. The body is much larger than a red blood cell, but is thought possibly to be a degenerated red blood cell swollen by imbibition; it has been found in malaria and in convalescence from typhoid fever; the transparent portion is called the glass body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Symington's anococcygeal body | <anatomy> A musculofibrous band that passes between the anus and the coccyx. Synonym: ligamentum anococcygeum, anococcygeal body, raphe anococcygea, Symington's anococcygeal body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dorsal nucleus of trapezoid body | A circumscript, bipartite cell group located ventrolaterally in the lower pontine tegmentum, immediately dorsal to the trapezoid body; the nucleus receives fibres from both the ipsilateral and contralateral cochlear nuclei, and contributes fibres to the lateral (auditory) lemniscus of both sides. It is believed to be prominently involved in the function of spatial localization of sound. Synonym: nucleus dorsalis corporis trapezoidei, oliva superior, superior olivary nucleus, superior olive.
