| endothelial cell | A thin, flattened cell, a layer of them lines the inside surfaces of body cavities, blood vessels, and lymph vessels, making up the endothelium. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| endothelial cyst | A serous cyst whose sac is lined with endothelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endothelial dystrophy of cornea | Spontaneous loss of corneal endothelium leading to oedema of the corneal stroma and epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endothelial leukocyte | Old term for a monocyte, a type of leukocyte thought to be derived from reticuloendothelial tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule | 115,000 Mw molecule on the surface of endothelial cells that is involved in blood leukocyte attachment to vessel walls as well as emigration from the vessels into the tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endothelial myeloma | A malignant primary bone tumour that arises most commonly in the first three decades of life. It is highly malignant (prone to spread) and often requires treatment with some combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy. (27 Sep 1997) |
| endothelial relaxing factor | A molecule functioning as a neurotransmitter and produced by activated macrophages. It is capable of killing tumour cells, parasites, and intracellular bacteria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endothelio-endothelial placenta | A placenta in which the endothelium of the maternal vessels comes in direct contact with the endothelium of the foetal vessels to form the placental barrier. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fuchs' endothelial dystrophy | Disorder caused by loss of endothelium of the central cornea. It is characterised by hyaline endothelial outgrowths on descemet's membrane, epithelial blisters, reduced vision, and pain. (12 Dec 1998) |
| age factors | Age as a constituent element or influence contributing to the production of a result. It may be applicable to the cause or the effect of a circumstance. It is used with human or animal concepts but should be differentiated from aging, a physiological process, and time factors which refers only to the passage of time. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacteriocin factors | Bacterial plasmid's responsible for the elaboration of bacteriocins. Synonym: bacteriocin factors, bacteriocinogens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biological factors | Compounds made by living organisms. They have biological or physiological activities. (12 Dec 1998) |
| biotic factors | Environmental factor's or influences resulting from the activities of living organisms, as contrasted to those resulting from climatic, geological, or other factor's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blood coagulation factors | Endogenous substances, usually proteins, that participate in the blood coagulation process. (12 Dec 1998) |
| macrophage migration-inhibitory factors | Proteins released by sensitised lymphocytes and possibly other cells that inhibit the migration of macrophages away from the release site. The structure and chemical properties may vary with the species and type of releasing cell. (12 Dec 1998) |
