| 영문 | tissue biopsy | 한글 | 조직생검 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 환자의 병적인 조직의 일부를 떼어 내서 병리조직표본을 만들어서 현미경적으로 검사하는 것. 외과적 수술재료로부터 병리조직학적 검사를 하여 생체내의 병변을 추구하는 분야를 외과병리학이라고 한다. 생검에는 쐐기생검, 천자침생검, 꿰뚫기식생검, 내시경생검 외에 세포진이라고 불리우는 박리세포진이나 세척세포진 등 떨어진 세포를 도말검사하는 방법이 포함된다. |

| 영문 | target tissue | 한글 | 표적조직 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 호르몬에 대하여 표적이 되는 세포라는 의미로서 그 호르몬에 대한 수용체를 가지고 있는 세포. 예를 들어 인슐린은 인슐린 수용체를 가진 세포를 표적세포로 하여 이 세포에만 작용한다. |

| 영문 | subcutaneous tissue, subcutis | 한글 | 피하조직 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 피부에서 진피의 아랫부분을 말함. 여기에는 지방조직이 많다. 기능은 열의 격리, 충격흡수, 영양저장소 등이다. |

| unesterified free fatty acid | Free fatty acids which occur in plasma as a result of lipolysis in adipose tissue or when plasma triacylglycerols are taken into tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| fatty | Containing fat, or having the qualities of fat; greasy; gross; as, a fatty substance. <medicine> Fatty acid, a tumour consisting of fatty or adipose tissue; lipoma. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| fatty acid | <biochemistry> Any number of saturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acids. A metabolic byproduct from the breakdown of fats. Chemically R COOH where R is an aliphatic moiety. The common fatty acids of biological origin are linear chains with an even number of carbon atoms. Free fatty acids are present in living tissues at low concentrations. The esterified forms are important both as energy storage molecules and structural molecules. See: triglycerides, phospholipids. (15 Nov 1997) |
| fatty acid 2-chloroethyl ester synthase | <enzyme> Catalyses the formation of 2-chloroethyl esters of long-chain fatty acids; localised in the microsomal fraction of rat liver Registry number: EC 2.3.1.- Synonym: facees, 2-chloroethyl ester synthase (26 Jun 1999) |
| fatty-acid amide hydrolase | <enzyme> Degrades neuromodulatory fatty-acid amides; genbank u72497 Registry number: EC 3.5.1.- Synonym: oleamide hydrolase, faah protein, fatty acid amide hydrolase (26 Jun 1999) |
| fatty acid binding protein | A fatty acid-binding protein that participates in the intracellular movement of fatty acids. Synonym: fatty acid binding protein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty acid binding proteins | <biochemistry> Group of small cytosolic proteins that bind fatty acids or other organic solutes. (18 Nov 1997) |
| fatty acid desaturases | <enzyme> Enzymes that catalyze the conversion of saturated fatty acid CoA complexes to unsaturated fatty acid CoA complexes in the presence of any acceptor. Registry number: EC 1.14.99.- (12 Dec 1998) |
| fatty acid methyltransferase | <enzyme> Catalyses the reaction of s-adenosylmethionine and a fatty acid to yield s-adenosylhomocysteine and a fatty acid methyl ester; calcium and calmodulin insensitive Registry number: EC 2.1.1.15 (26 Jun 1999) |
| fatty acid oxidation cycle | A series of reactions involving acyl-coenzyme A compounds, whereby these undergo beta oxidation and thioclastic cleavage, with the formation of acetyl-coenzyme A; the major pathway of fatty acid catabolism in living tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fatty acid reductase | <enzyme> Catalyses reduction of fatty acids to aldehydes Registry number: EC 1.2.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| fatty acids | Organic, monobasic acids derived from hydrocarbons by the equivalent of oxidation of a methyl group to an alcohol, aldehyde, and then acid. Fatty acids are saturated and unsaturated (fatty acids, unsaturated). (12 Dec 1998) |
| fatty acids, essential | Fatty acids that cannot be synthesised by the human body and must be obtained from dietary sources, e.g., linoleic acids and linolenic acids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fatty acids, monounsaturated | Fatty acids which are unsaturated in only one position. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fatty acids, nonesterified | The fraction of plasma fatty acids that are not in the form of glycerol esters. They are also called free fatty acids, but this is a misnomer because they are transported complexed with albumin. (12 Dec 1998) |
