| Neusser's granules | Tiny basophilic granule's sometimes observed in an indistinct zone about the nucleus of a leukocyte. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| Nissl granules | The material consisting of granular endoplasmic reticulum and ribosomes that occurs in nerve cell bodies and dendrites. Synonym: basophil substance, basophilic substance, chromophil substance, Nissl bodies, Nissl granules, substantia basophilia, tigroid bodies, tigroid substance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| juxtaglomerular granules | Osmophilic secretory granule's present in the juxtaglomerular cells, thought to contain renin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| keratohyalin granules | Irregularly shaped basophilic granule's in the cells of the stratum granulosum of the epidermis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Fordyce's granules | A condition marked by the presence of numerous small, yellowish white bodies or granules on the inner surface and vermilion border of the lips; histologically the lesions are ectopic sebaceous glands. Synonym: Fordyce's disease, Fordyce's granules, pseudocolloid of lips. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aluminum magnesium silicate | An antacid. Synonym: aluminum magnesium silicate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcium magnesium-atpase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of ATP and is activated by millimolar concentrations of either calcium or magnesium. Unlike calcium-transporting atpase it does not require the second divalent cation for its activity, and is not sensitive to orthovanadate. Registry number: EC 3.6.1.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| calcium magnesium dependent endodeoxyribonuclease | <enzyme> Similar in action but different from dnase i Registry number: EC 3.1.21.- Synonym: ca mg dnase, ca(2+)+mg(2+) dnase, calcium-magnesium endonuclease, ca-mg endonuclease (26 Jun 1999) |
| magnesium | <chemical, element> An essential divalent cation. The major role is as the chelated ion in ATP and presumably other triphosphonucleotides. The magnesium ATP complex is the sole biologically active form of ATP. The other essential role of magnesium is as the central ion of chlorophyll. Cellular concentration is less than 5mM. Serum concentration approximately 1mM. Pharmacologic action: Hypomagnesemia can cause refractory ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia. Uses: known hypomagnesemic states - suspect hypomagnesmia in alcoholics, chronic disease states, or others with poor nutrition; treatment of choice for Torsade de Pointes. Dose: 1-2 grams IV push for cardiac arrest, over 1 to 2 minutes for Torsades, and over 5 to 60 minutes for acute myocardial infarction. Potential complications: Transient flushing and diaphoresis, sinus bradycardia, hypotension, hyporeflexia and paralysis with overdose. Abbreviation: Mg (15 Mar 2000) |
| magnesium aluminum silicate | An antacid. Synonym: aluminum magnesium silicate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| magnesium bacteriopheophytinate | <microbiology, plant biology> Varieties of chlorophyll (bacteriochlorophylls a, b, c, d, e and g) found in photosynthetic bacteria and differing from plant chlorophyll in the substituents around the tetrapyrrole nucleus of the molecule and in the absorption spectra. (18 Nov 1997) |
| magnesium benzoate | Has been used in gout and rheumatoid arthritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| magnesium-bicarbonate ATPase | <enzyme> Aspect of EC 3.6.1.3 Registry number: EC 3.6.1.- Synonym: mg-hco3-atpase, atpase, magnesium-bicarbonate (26 Jun 1999) |
| magnesium carbonate | Used in gastric and intestinal acidity and as a laxative. (05 Mar 2000) |
