| lipid granulomatosis | <dermatology, pathology> An accumulation of an excess of lipids in the body due to disturbance of lipid metabolism and marked by the formation of foam cells in skin lesions. (16 Dec 1997) |
|---|---|
| lipid histiocytosis | Histiocytosis with cytoplasmic accumulation of lipid, either phospholipid (Niemann-Pick disease) or glucocerebroside (Gaucher's disease). (05 Mar 2000) |
| lipid keratopathy | Occurrence of fats in an area of corneal vascularization. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lipid mobilization | The breakdown of stored triglyceride in adipose tissue with the release of free fatty acids and glycerol. Depot fat hydrolysis is catalyzed by a lipase in response to pituitary lipid mobilization factors (lmf), various hormones, serotonin, or hepatotoxins such as carbon tetrachloride. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lipid-mobilizing hormone | <protein> Polypeptide hormone (_ form: 9894D, 91 residues, _ form has only residues 1-58 of _) from the pituitary hypophysis, that is of particular interest because it is the precursor of endorphins, which are released by proteolysis. Promotes lipolysis and acts through the adenylyl cyclase system. Part of the ACTH group of hormones. (18 Nov 1997) |
| lipid peroxidation | Peroxidase catalyzed oxidation of lipids using hydrogen peroxide as an electron acceptor. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lipid peroxides | Peroxides produced in the presence of a free radical by the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in the cell in the presence of molecular oxygen. The formation of lipid peroxides results in the destruction of the original lipid leading to the loss of integrity of the membranes. They therefore cause a variety of toxic effects in vivo and their formation is considered a pathological process in biological systems. Their formation can be inhibited by antioxidants, such as vitamin e, structural separation or low oxygen tension. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lipid pneumonia | Lipoid pneumonia, pulmonary condition marked by inflammatory and fibrotic changes in the lungs due to the inhalation of various oily or fatty substances, particularly liquid petrolatum, or resulting from accumulation in the lungs of endogenous lipid material, either cholesterol from obstructive pneumonitis or following fracture of a bone; phagocytes containing lipid are usually present. Synonym: oil pneumonia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lipid profile | Pattern of lipids in the blood. (A lipid profile usually includes the total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (hdl) cholesterol, triglycerides, and the calculated low density lipoprotein (ldl) cholesterol. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lipid storage diseases | A series of disorders due to inborn errors in lipid metabolism resulting in the abnormal accumulation of lipids in the wrong places (examples include gaucher, fabry and niemann-pick diseases and metachromatic leukodystrophy). (12 Dec 1998) |
| mastectomy, simple | Removal of only the breast tissue and nipple and a small portion of the overlying skin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| microscope, simple | <microscopy> A microscope that has a single converging lens (or a combination of lenses that function optically as a single converging lens). Anton van leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) made good use of the simple microscope to look at the life within a drop of water, and such. The magnifying properties of lenses had been well known in ancient times (for example to the greeks and romans) but it was not until about 1600 that it became possible to make small lenses with the precision needed to make a microscope. (12 Dec 1998) |
| simple | Undivided, of a leaf, not divided into leaflets, of a hair or an inflorescence, not branched. (09 Oct 1997) |
| simple absence | A brief clouding of consciousness accompanied by the abrupt onset of 3/sec spikes and waves on EEG. Synonym: pure absence. (05 Mar 2000) |
| simple anchorage | Anchorage in which the resistance to the movement of one or more teeth comes solely from resistance to tipping movement of the anchorage unit. (05 Mar 2000) |
