| Golgi zone | <cell biology> Part of the cytoplasm occupied by the Golgi apparatus, in secretory cells of exocrine glands, a zone between the nucleus and the luminal surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Holmgren-Golgi canals | <cell biology> Intracellular stack of membrane bounded vesicles in which glycosylation and packaging of secreted proteins takes place. Part of the GERL complex. Synonym: Golgi body, Golgi vesicles, dictyosome (in plants), parabasal body (in flagellate protozoa). (11 Jan 1998) |
| trans Golgi network | <cell biology> A complex of membranous tubules and vesicles, near the trans face of the Golgi, which is thought to be a major intersection for intracellular traffic of vesicles. (18 Nov 1997) |
| trans-Golgi reticulum | That part of the Golgi apparatus that takes newly processed proteins and delivers them to secretory vesicles that will fuse with other biomembranes (e.g., the plasma membrane). (05 Mar 2000) |
| malignant mixed mullerian tumour | A sarcoma of the body of the uterus arising in older women, composed of more than one mesenchymal tissue, especially including striated muscle cells. Synonym: malignant mixed mullerian tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gonadal dysgenesis, mixed | A syndrome of gonadal dysgenesis in which there is a testis on one side and a "streak gonad" on the other. The phenotype is generally male, but may be female since the individual is a mosaic. Various karyotypes have been identified, including 45,xo/47,xyy; 45,xo/46,xy; and 45,xo/46,xyo. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mixed | Formed by mixing; united; mingled; blended. See Mix, Mixed action, voices of both males and females united in the same performance. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| mixed agglutination | Immune agglutination in which the aggregates contain cells of two different kinds but with common antigenic determinants; when used to identify isoantigens, the test cells are exposed to appropriate isoantibody, washed, and then mixed with indicator erythrocytes that combine with free sites on the test cell-attached isoantibody. Synonym: mixed agglutination. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed agglutination reaction | Immune agglutination in which the aggregates contain cells of two different kinds but with common antigenic determinants; when used to identify isoantigens, the test cells are exposed to appropriate isoantibody, washed, and then mixed with indicator erythrocytes that combine with free sites on the test cell-attached isoantibody. Synonym: mixed agglutination. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed aphasia | In which all aspects of speech and communication are severely impaired. at best, patients can understand or speak only a few words or phrases; they cannot read or write. Synonym: mixed aphasia, total aphasia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed astigmatism | Astigmatism in which one meridian is hyperopic while the one at right angle to it is myopic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed beat | A beat triggered by more than a single electrical impulse, when the wave fronts coincide to act together on a single final pathway of activity; in the electrocardiogram, the atrial or ventricular complex when either atria or ventricles are activated jointly by two simultaneous or nearly simultaneous invading impulses. Synonym: combination beat, mixed beat, summation beat. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed cell leukaemia | Term infrequently used as a designation for granulocytic leukaemia, thereby emphasizing the occurrence of different types of cells in the myeloid series (i.e., neutrophilic, eosinophilic, and basophilic granulocytes), in contrast to the comparatively monotonous pattern observed in lymphocytic and monocytic leukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed chancre | A sore resulting from simultaneous inoculation of a site with syphilis and chancroid. (05 Mar 2000) |
