| hyperlipoproteinaemia type III | A rather uncommon form of familial hyperlipaemia characterised by the presence of lipoproteins of abnormal composition. The main abnormal lipoproteins are called beta-vldl and have a different apoprotein content and a higher proportion of cholesterol relative to triglyceride than normal vldl. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| deoxyribonucleases, type III site-specific | <enzyme> Enzyme systems composed of two subunits and requiring ATP and magnesium for endonucleolytic activity; they do not function as atpases. They exist as complexes with modification methylases of similar specificity. The systems recognise specific short DNA sequences and cleave a short distance, about 24 to 27 bases, away from the recognition sequence to give specific double-stranded fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates. Enzymes from different microorganisms with the same specificity are called isoschizomers. Registry number: EC 3.1.21.5 (12 Dec 1998) |
| type III acrocephalosyndactyly | An autosomal dominant syndrome with variable expression of brachycephaly, maxillary hypoplasia, prominent ear crus, syndactyly, facial asymmetry, shallow orbits, telecanthus, and nasal septal deviation; may show mental retardation. Synonym: Saethre-Chotzen syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| type III collagen | Collagen characteristic of reticular fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
| type III familial hyperlipoproteinaemia | Hyperlipoproteinaemia characterised by increased plasma levels of LDL, beta-lipoproteins, pre-beta-lipoproteins, cholesterol, phospholipids, and triglycerides; hypertriglyceridemia induced by a high carbohydrate diet, and glucose tolerance is abnormal; frequent eruptive xanthomas and atheromatosis, particularly coronary artery disease; biochemical defect lies in apolipoproteins; there are many varieties. Synonym: carbohydrate-induced hyperlipaemia, dysbetalipoproteinaemia, familial hyperbetalipoproteinaemia and hyperprebetalipoproteinaemia, familial hypercholesterolaemia with hyperlipaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| type III hyperlipoproteinaemia | <biochemistry> An inherited disorder (gene defect) where both cholesterol and triglycerides are elevated in the same patient. This condition accelerates the effects of atherosclerosis and thus increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Conditions such as hypothyroidism, obesity and diabetes enhances this risk. Origin: Gr. Haima = blood (27 Sep 1997) |
| type III hypersensitivity reaction | An immunologic category of diseases evoked by the deposition of antigen-antibody or antigen-antibody-complement complexes on cell surfaces, with subsequent involvement of breakdown products of complement, platelets, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and development of vasculitis; nephritis is common. Arthus phenomenon and serum sickness are classic examples, but many other disorders, including most of the connective tissue disease's, may belong in this immunologic category; immune complex disease's can also occur during a variety of disease's of known aetiology, such as subacute bacterial endocarditis. See: autoimmune disease. Synonym: immune complex disorder, type III hypersensitivity reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| type III mucopolysaccharidosis | <syndrome> An error of the mucopolysaccharide metabolism, with excretion of large amounts of heparan sulfate in the urine and severe mental retardation with hepatomegaly; skeleton may be normal or may present mild changes similar to those in Hurler's syndrome; several different types (A, B, C, and D) have been identified according to the enzyme deficiency; autosomal recessive inheritance. Synonym: type III mucopolysaccharidosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| multiple lipoprotein-type hyperlipidaemia | <biochemistry> Inherited as a defective gene, this disorder is characterised by elevations in serum cholesterol and/or triglycerides. There are often multiple types of lipoproteins (LDL) elevated in one family. This condition is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Origin: Gr. Haima = blood (27 Sep 1997) |
| cervical intraepithelial neoplasia | A term which describes precancerous changes to the epithelial cells lining the cervix. The diagnosis is made from the microscopic examination of a PAP smear acquired tissue specimen. Less than 5% of all PAP smears will show cervical dysplasia. The peak incidence is in women 25 to 35 years of age. Risk factors include multiple sexual partners, early onset of sexual activity (less than 18), early childbearing (less than 16) and past medical history of a sexually transmitted disease (for example genital warts, genital herpes, HIV infection). Treatment is based on the degree of dysplasia present, as judged by a pathologist. Treatments include cryotherapy and conisation. Origin: Gr. Plassein = to form (27 Sep 1997) |
| prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia | A premalignant change arising in the prostatic epithelium, regarded as the most important and most likely precursor of prostatic adenocarcinoma. The neoplasia takes the form of an intra-acinar or ductal proliferation of secretory cells with unequivocal nuclear anaplasia, which corresponds to nuclear grade 2 and 3 invasive prostate cancer. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasia | <oncology, pathology> Literally new growth, usually refers to abnormal new growth and thus means the same as tumour, which may be benign or malignant. Unlike hyperplasia, neoplastic proliferation persists even in the absence of the original stimulus. Origin: Gr. Plassein = to form (18 Nov 1997) |
| lobular neoplasia | <tumour> Carcinoma of the breast in which small tumour cells fill preexisting acini within lobules, without invading the surrounding stroma. Synonym: lobular carcinoma in situ, lobular neoplasia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bone diseases, endocrine | Diseases of the bones related to hyperfunction or hypofunction of the endocrine glands. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplastic endocrine-like syndromes | Endocrine syndromes due to hormone production by neoplasms of non-endocrine tissue, or by other than the usual endocrine tissues. They are often the first indication of a previously undetected neoplasm. (12 Dec 1998) |
