| linear epidermal nevus | A congenital systematised linear nevus limited to one side of the body or to portions of the extremities on one side; lesions are often extensive, forming wave-like bands on the trunk and spiraling streaks on the extremities. Synonym: linear epidermal nevus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| acute inclusion body encephalitis | The most common acute encephalitis, caused by HSV-1; affects persons of any age; preferentially involves the inferomedial portions of the temporal lobe and the orbital portions of the frontal lobes; pathologically, severe haemorrhagic necrosis is present along with, in the acute stages, intranuclear eosinophilic inclusion bodies in the neurons and glial cells. Synonym: acute inclusion body encephalitis, herpes encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjunctivitis, inclusion | An infection of the eyes characterised by the presence in conjunctival epithelial cells of inclusion bodies indistinguishable from those of trachoma. It is acquired by infants during birth and by adults from swimming pools. The aetiological agent is chlamydia trachomatis whose natural habitat appears to be the genito-urinary tract. Inclusion conjunctivitis is a less severe disease than trachoma and usually clears up spontaneously. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Cowdry's type A inclusion bodies | Droplet-like masses of acidophilic material surrounded by clear halos within nuclei, with margination of chromatin on the nuclear membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Cowdry's type B inclusion bodies | Droplet-like masses of acidophilic material surrounded by clear halos within nuclei, without other nuclear changes during early stages of development of the inclusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| myositis, inclusion body | A progressive inflammatory myopathy primarily involving muscles of the pelvic region and legs, usually seen in older people. The muscles are infiltrated by mononuclear inflammatory cells, sarcoplasmic vacuoles, masses of filaments and filamentous microtubules, and sometimes eosinophilic bodies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cytomegalic inclusion disease | <disease> An illness in newborns caused by viral infection, symptoms includefever, cellular enlargement, microscopically-visible clumps of viralparticles or proteins in the cytoplasm and nuclei of affected cells, enlargementof the spleen and liver. Long-term effects of the disease may includemental retardation. (09 Oct 1997) |
| cytoplasmic inclusion bodies | See: inclusion bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| psittacosis inclusion bodies | Intracytoplasmic chlamydial microcolonies observed in bronchial epithelial cells infected with Chlamydia psittaci. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subacute inclusion body encephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| nuclear inclusion bodies | See: inclusion bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inclusion | 1. The act of including, or the state of being included; limitation; restriction; as, the lines of inclusion of his policy. 2. <chemical> A foreign substance, either liquid or solid, usually of minute size, inclosed in the mass of a mineral. Origin: L. Inclusio: cf. F. Inclusion. See Include. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| inclusion blennorrhoea | A neonatal conjunctivitis caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inclusion bodies | <cell biology> Nuclear or cytoplasmic structures with characteristic staining properties, usually found at the site of virus multiplication. Semi crystalline arrays of virions, capsids or other viral components. (13 Nov 1997) |
| inclusion bodies, viral | An area showing altered staining behaviour in the nucleus or cytoplasm of a virus-infected cell. Some inclusion bodies represent "virus factories" in which viral nucleic acid or protein is being synthesised; others are merely artifacts of fixation and staining. One example, negri bodies, are found in the cytoplasm or processes of nerve cells in animals that have died from rabies. (12 Dec 1998) |
