| 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) |
| annulospiral organ | One of two types of sensory nerve ending associated with a neuromuscular spindle (the other being the flower-spray ending); after entering the muscle spindle, the fibre divides into two flat ribbon-like branches that wind themselves in rings or spirals about the intrafusal muscle fibres. Synonym: annulospiral organ. (05 Mar 2000) |
| auditory organ | Archaic term for gustatory organ. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bojanus organ | <zoology> A glandular organ of bivalve mollusca, serving in part as a kidney. Origin: From Bojanus, the discoverer. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| vestibular organ | Collective term for the utricle, saccule, and saemicircular ducts of the membranous labyrinth, each having a single patch of ciliated receptor epithelium innervated by the vestibular nerve: macula of sacculus, macula of utriculus, and cristae of the saemicircular ducts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vestibulocochlear organ | The external, middle, and internal ear. Synonym: organum vestibulocochleare. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vestigial organ | A rudimentary structure in humans corresponding to a functional structure or organ in the lower animals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| visual organ | The eye and its adnexa. Synonym: organum visus, organ of vision. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vomeronasal organ | A specialised part of the olfactory system located anteriorly in the nasal cavity within the nasal septum. Chemosensitive cells of the vomeronasal organ project via the vomeronasal nerve to the accessory olfactory bulb. The primary function of this organ appears to be in sensing pheromones which regulate reproductive and other social behaviours. While the structure has been thought absent in higher primate adults, data now suggests it may be present in adult humans. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Chievitz' organ | A normal epithelial structure, possibly a neurotransmitter, found at the angle of the mandible with branches of the buccal nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gustatory organ | Located in the papillae of the mucous membrane of the tongue, chiefly in the vallate papillae. Synonym: organum gustus, organ of taste. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rosenmuller's organ | <anatomy> The parovarium. Origin: So named from its first describer, J. C. Rosenmuller, a German anatomist. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
