| reticular tissue | Retiform tissue, a tissue in which the argyrophilic collagenous fibres form a network and that usually has a network of reticular cells associated with the fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| primitive reticular cell | A cell with processes making contact with those of other similar cell's to form a cellular network; along with the network of reticular fibres, the reticular cell's form the stroma of bone marrow and lymphatic tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epithelial reticular cell | One of the many-branched epithelial cell's that collectively form the supporting stroma for lymphocytes in the thymus; believed to produce thymosin and other factors that control thymic function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral reticular nucleus | A group of cells in the medulla oblongata, located between the inferior olive and the descending trigeminal nucleus, receiving fibres from the spinal cord and motor cortex and projecting to the cerebellum. Synonym: nucleus lateralis medullae oblongatae, lateral reticular nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| affinity column | <investigation> A technique of analytical chemistry used to separate and purify a biological molecule from a mixture, based on the attraction of the molecule of interest to a particular ligand which has been previously attached to a solid, inert substance. The mixture is passed through a column containing the ligand attached to the stationary substance, so that the molecule of interest stays within the column while the rest of the mixture continues through to the end. Then, a different chemical is flushed through the column to detach the molecule from the ligand and bring it out separately from the rest of the mixture. (09 Feb 1998) |
| anterior column | The pronounced, ventrally oriented ridge of gray matter in each half of the spinal cord; it corresponds to the anterior or ventral horn appearing in transverse sections of the cord, and contains the motor neurons innervating the skeletal musculature of the trunk, neck, and extremities. See: gray columns. Synonym: columna anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior column of medulla oblongata | An elongated, white prominence on the ventral surface of the medulla oblongata on either side along the anterior median fissure, corresponding to the pyramidal tract. Synonym: pyramis medullae oblongatae, anterior column of medulla oblongata, anterior pyramid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior gray column | The central gray matter of the spinal cord surrounding the central canal. Synonym: substantia intermedia centralis et lateralis, anterior gray column, Stilling's gelatinous substance, substantia gelatinosa centralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterolateral column of spinal cord | The lateral white column of the spinal cord between the lines of exit and entrance of the anterior and posterior nerve roots. Synonym: funiculus lateralis, anterolateral column of spinal cord, lateral funiculus of spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| branchial efferent column | A column of gray matter in the brainstem of the embryo, represented in the adult by the nucleus ambiguus and the motor nuclei of the trigeminal and facial nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Burdach's column | The larger lateral subdivision of the posterior funiculus. Synonym: fasciculus cuneatus, Burdach's column, Burdach's fasciculus, Burdach's tract, cuneate funiculus, wedge-shaped fasciculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| veins of vertebral column | Includes the internal and external vertebral venous plexuses, the basivertebral veins, and the anterior and posterior spinal veins. Synonym: venae columnae vertebralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| general somatic afferent column | In the embryo, a column of gray matter in the hindbrain and spinal cord, represented in the adult by the sensory nuclei of the trigeminal nerve and relay cells in the dorsal horn. (05 Mar 2000) |
| general somatic efferent column | A column of gray matter in the embryo, represented in the adult by the nuclei of the oculomotor, trochlear, abducens, and hypoglossal nerves and by motor neurons of the ventral horn of the spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| general visceral afferent column | A column of gray matter in the hindbrain and spinal cord of the embryo, developing into the nucleus of the solitary tract and relay cells of the spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
