| 설명 | 여성의 월경은 정해진 순서에 의해 일어나게 된다. 먼저 난포자극호르몬이 뇌에서 분비되어 여성의 난소를 자극하게 되면 난포가 자극받아 난포호르몬(에스트로젠)을 분비하게 되고 이것은 다시 되먹이기 메커니즘 의해 뇌에 작용을 하여 황체화호르몬이 뇌에서 분비되고 이것이 이른바 절정에 이르렀을 때, 난포에서 배란이 일어나게 된다. 이후 난포는 황체로 변하게 되며, 배란된 난자가 수정되지 아니하면, 황체는 황체호르몬(프로게스테론)을 분비한 뒤 퇴화되고 곧 이어 월경이 일어나게 된다. 이 일은 정상적인 대부분의 여성에서 28일을 주기로 일어나며, 대개 황체화호르몬 절정 이후 마지막은 14일로 일정하다고 한다. |

| inhibitory fibres | Nerve fibre's that inhibit the activity of the nerve cells with which they have synaptic connections, or of the effector tissue (smooth muscle, heart muscle, glands) in which they terminate. (05 Mar 2000) |

| inhibitory junction potential | Hyperpolarization of smooth muscle produced by stimulation of inhibitory nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inhibitory-motor | <physiology> A term applied to certain nerve centers which govern or restrain subsidiary centers, from which motor impressions issue. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| inhibitory nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A nerve conveying impulses that diminish functional activity in a part. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inhibitory postsynaptic potential | The change in potential produced in the membrane of the next neuron when an impulse which has an inhibitory influence arrives at the synapse; it is a local change in the direction of hyperpolarization; the frequency of discharge of a given neuron is determined by the extent to which impulses that lead to excitatory postsynaptic potential's predominate over those that cause inhibitory postsynaptic potential's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inhibitory synapse | A synapse in which an action potential in the presynaptic cell reduces the probability of an action potential occurring in the postsynaptic cell. The most common inhibitory neurotransmitter is GABA, this opens channels in the postsynaptic cell which tend to stabilise its resting potential, thus rendering it less likely to fire. See: excitatory synapse, presynaptic inhibition, postsynaptic inhibition. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Leukaemia inhibitory factor | <growth factor> Polypeptide growth factor or cytokine with wide range of activities. Regulates growth and differentiation of primordial germ cells and embryonic stem cells but has effects on peripheral neurons, osteoblasts, adipocytes and various cells of the myeloid lineage. Given to adult animals induces weight loss, behavioural disorders and bone abnormalities. Many of the effects of LIF in vitro can be mimicked by IL-6, oncostatin M and ciliary neurotrophic factor, all of which interact indirectly with gp130, a shared tranducer subunit. (18 Nov 1997) |
| leukocyte migration-inhibitory factors | Protein factor(s) released by sensitised lymphocytes (and possibly other cells) that inhibit the movement of leukocytes, especially polymorphonuclear cells, away from their site of release. Assays for these factors are used as tests for cellular immunity. Two of the common assays are the leukocyte migration capillary tube technique (lmct) and the leukocyte migration agarose technique (lmat). (12 Dec 1998) |
| anterior hypothalamic region | The rostral portion of the hypothalamus that includes preoptic, supraoptic, paraventricular and anterior hypothalamic nuclei; the hypothalamic structures located internally in the general area of the optic chiasm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus | <anatomy> A nucleus of the middle hypothalamus, the largest cell group of the tuberal region with small-to-medium size cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus | Nucleus in the anterior part of the hypothalamus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| posterior hypothalamic area | Caudal portions of the hypothalamus located internally in the area of the mamillary body, includes medial, intermediate, and lateral mamillary nuclei and the posterior hypothalamic nuclei. Synonym: posterior hypothalamic area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior hypothalamic nucleus | A large, periventricular hypothalamic nucleus located dorsal to the mamillary body, continuous with the central gray substance of the mesencephalon. Synonym: nucleus posterior hypothalami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior hypothalamic region | Caudal portions of the hypothalamus located internally in the area of the mamillary body, includes medial, intermediate, and lateral mamillary nuclei and the posterior hypothalamic nuclei. Synonym: posterior hypothalamic area. (05 Mar 2000) |
