| amelogenesis imperfecta | An autosomal dominant or x-linked disorder in which there is faulty development of the dental enamel owing to agenesis, hypoplasia, or hypocalcification of the enamel. It is marked by enamel that is very thin and friable and frequently stained in various shades of brown. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| dentinogenesis imperfecta | An autosomal dominant disorder of tooth development characterised by opalescent dentin resulting in discoloration of the teeth, ranging from dusky blue to brownish. The dentin is poorly formed with an abnormally low mineral content; the pulp canal is obliterated, but the enamel is normal. The teeth usually wear down rapidly, leaving short, brown stumps. (12 Dec 1998) |
| odontogenesis imperfecta | A localised arrested tooth development which appears to involve most commonly the anterior teeth, usually on one side of the midline, most often the maxillary central and lateral incisors. Roentgenographically, the teeth have a ghostlike appearance. Calcification and bits of prismatic enamel may be found in the pulp and the enamel is thin and absent in part. (12 Dec 1998) |
| enamelogenesis imperfecta | An autosomal dominant or x-linked disorder in which there is faulty development of the dental enamel owing to agenesis, hypoplasia, or hypocalcification of the enamel. It is marked by enamel that is very thin and friable and frequently stained in various shades of brown. (12 Dec 1998) |
| erythrogenesis imperfecta | Congenital nonregenerative, familial hypoplastic, or pure red cell anaemia; erythrogenesis imperfecta; Diamond-Blackfan syndrome; autosomal recessive normocytic normochromic anaemia resulting from congenital hypoplasia of the bone marrow, which is grossly deficient in erythroid precursors while other elements are normal; anaemia is progressive and severe, but leukocyte and platelet counts are normal or slightly reduced; survival of transfused erythrocytes is normal; minor congenital anomalies are found in some patients. Synonym: congenital nonregenerative anaemia, Diamond-Blackfan anaemia, Diamond-Blackfan syndrome, erythrogenesis imperfecta, familial hypoplastic anaemia, pure red cell anaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angiotensin III | <chemical> A heptapeptide formed by the enzymatic hydrolysis of angiotensin II. It has greater activity than angiotensin II for stimulating aldosterone synthesis and in the release of prostaglandins but only 20% of the pressor activity. Chemical name: Angiotensin II, 1-de-L-aspartic acid- (12 Dec 1998) |
| annexin III | <enzyme> A protein of the annexin family that catalyses the conversion of 1-d-inositol 1,2-cyclic phosphate and water to 1-d-myo-inositol 1-phosphate. Chemical name: 1-D-myo-Inositol-1,2-cyclic-phosphate 2-inositolphosphohydrolase Registry number: EC 3.1.4.36 (12 Dec 1998) |
| antithrombin III | <haematology> Antithrombin III is a protein which stimulates the removal of blood clots in the bloodstream. Small blood clots form normally within the bloodstream, but are normally dissolved via the bodys antithrombin III. Conditions that may have an associated low value of antithrombin III include: liver disease and DIC. Normal values are: 0.20 to 0.45 mg/ml or more than 50% of the laboratory control value. Conditions where there is a deficiency of this important protease inhibitor can result in a condition of hypercoagulation, resulting in an increased risk for blood clot formation. Inheritance: autosomal dominant. (13 Jan 1998) |
| apolipoprotein C-III | <biochemistry> An apolipoprotein found in VLDL, HDL, and chylomicrons. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arsenazo III | <chemical> Metallochrome indicator that changes colour when complexed to the calcium ion under physiological conditions. It is used to measure local calcium ion concentrations in vivo. Pharmacological action: dyes, indicators and reagents. Chemical name: 2,7-Naphthalenedisulfonic acid, 3,6-bis((2-arsonophenyl)azo)-4,5-dihydroxy- (12 Dec 1998) |
| arteriae intercostales posteriores III-XI | posterior intercostal arteries 3-11 |
| band III protein | <protein> A 90 kD protein embedded in the surface of the human erythrocyte membrane, identified as the major anion transport/exchange protein. When the red blood cell is in the lungs, brings chlorine ion into the cell in exchange for bicarbonate. Analogous proteins exist in other erythrocytes. A dimeric transmembrane glycoprotein, with binding sites for many cytolasmic proteins, including ankyrin, on its cytoplasmic domain. (18 Nov 1997) |
| palpebra III | The semilunar fold formed by the palpebral conjunctiva at the medial angle of the eye, a fold of the conjunctival mucous membrane found in many animals; normally partially hidden in the medial canthus of the eye when at rest, it may be extended to cover part or all of the cornea in a winking-like action to clean the cornea, as in birds. Synonym: membrana nictitans, nictitating membrane, palpebra III, palpebra tertia, third eyelid. Synonym: plica lunata, plica semilunaris of eye, semilunar conjunctival fold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus collateralis arteriarum intercostalium posteriorum III-XI | Branch arising near angle of rib and descending to run along superior border of rib below; distribution: lower half of intercostal spaces 3-11; anastomoses: collateral branches of anterior intercostal arteries. Synonym: ramus collateralis arteriarum intercostalium posteriorum III-XI. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus cutaneus medialis rami dorsalis arteriarum intercostalium posteriorum III-XI | Medial cutaneous branch of dorsal branch of posterior intercostal arteries. See: medial cutaneous branch. (05 Mar 2000) |
