| end | 1. The extreme or last point or part of any material thing considered lengthwise (the extremity of breadth being side); hence, extremity, in general; the concluding part; termination; close; limit; as, the end of a field, line, pole, road; the end of a year, of a discourse; put an end to pain; opposed to beginning, when used of anything having a first part.

| end artery | <anatomy, artery> An artery with insufficient anastomoses to maintain viability of the tissue supplied if occlusion of the artery occurs. Synonym: terminal artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end bud | The rapidly proliferating mass of cells at the caudal extremity of the embryo; remnant of the primitive node. Synonym: end bud. (05 Mar 2000) |

| end oxidation | <biochemistry> The last oxidation step in a catabolic pathway. Synonym: terminal oxidation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end plate | <anatomy, physiology> The area of sarcolemma immediately below the synaptic region of the motor neuron in a neuromuscular junction. most often refers to the end of a nerve fibre against a skeletal muscle fibre, to which it transmits nerve signals. (18 Nov 1997) |
| end plate potential | <physiology> Depolarisation of the sarcolemma as a result of acetylcholine release from the motoneuron causing an influx of sodium ions. The endplate potential is the sum of quantal miniature endplate potentials. Development of the end plate potential is blocked by curare. (18 Nov 1997) |
| end point | <chemistry> It is the completion point during a titration reaction where there are equal amounts of titrant and whatever is being titrated. It is usually evident by the first perceptible alteration of the colour of an added indicator. <immunology> It is the most dilute an antibody or antiserum solution can be while still detectably reacting with the antigen. <statistics> A category of data used to compare the outcome in different arms of a clinical trial. Common endpoints are severe toxicity, disease progression or fall in such surrogate markers as CD4 count, but sometimes death is used as an endpoint. (08 Mar 2000) |
| end product | <biochemistry> The final product of after a series of reactions with enzymes in a biochemical metabolic pathway has taken place. (09 Oct 1997) |
| end-plate activity |
spontaneous activity recorded close to motor end plates in normal muscle. There are two types: monophasic (or end-plate noise) consists of dense, steady, entirely negative potentials with low amplitude and high frequency, similar to the miniature end-plate potentials of experimental animals; biphasic (or end-plate spikes) consists of irregular, alternately negative and positive spike potentials that come in short bursts with high frequencies.
