| striae atrophicae | Bands of thin wrinkled skin, initially red but becoming purple and white, which occur commonly on the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs at puberty and/or during and following pregnancy, and result from atrophy of the dermis and overextension of the skin; also associated with ascites and Cushing's syndrome. Synonym: atrophoderma striatum, lineae albicantes, lineae atrophicae, linear atrophy, stretch marks, stria, striae atrophicae, striate atrophy of skin, traction atrophy, vergeture. (05 Mar 2000) |

| striae ciliares | Shallow radial grooves on the surface of the orbiculus ciliaris extending from the teeth of the ora serrata and leading into the valleys between the ciliary processes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae cutis distensae | Bands of thin wrinkled skin, initially red but becoming purple and white, which occur commonly on the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs at puberty and/or during and following pregnancy, and result from atrophy of the dermis and overextension of the skin; also associated with ascites and Cushing's syndrome. Synonym: atrophoderma striatum, lineae albicantes, lineae atrophicae, linear atrophy, stretch marks, stria, striae atrophicae, striate atrophy of skin, traction atrophy, vergeture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae gravidarum | Striae cutis distensae related to pregnancy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae lancisi | The lateral longitudinal stria and the medial longitudinal stria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae medullares ventriculi quarti | Slender fascicles of fibres extending transversally below the ependymal floor of the ventricle from the median sulcus to enter the inferior cerebellar peduncle. They arise from the arcuate nuclei on the ventral surface of the medullary pyramid. Synonym: striae medullares ventriculi quarti, acoustic striae, auditory striae, Bergmann's cords, medullary teniae, teniae acusticae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae of Zahn | Riblike markings seen by the naked eye on the surface of antemortem thrombi; they consist of a branching framework of platelets and fibrin separating the coagulated blood cells. Synonym: striae of Zahn. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae olfactoriae | Three distinct fibre bands (stria medialis, stria intermedia, stria lateralis) that caudally extend the olfactory tract beyond its attachment to the olfactory trigone. The medial stria curves dorsally into the tenia tecta; the intermediate, often barely visible, extends straight back and terminates in the olfactory tubercle; the lateral olfactory stria, the largest of the three, passes along the lateral side of the olfactory tubercle, curving laterally as far as the limen insulae, then sharply medially to reach the uncus of the parahippocampal gyrus where it terminates in the plexiform layer of the olfactory cortex. See: medial longitudinal stria. Synonym: striae olfactoriae, olfactory roots. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae parallelae | Dark concentric lines crossing the enamel prisms of the teeth, seen in axial cross sections of the enamel. Synonym: brown striae, striae parallelae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striae retinae | Concentric lines on the surface of an abnormal retina. Synonym: Paton's lines. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striatal | Relating to the corpus striatum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| striatal-enriched phosphatase | <enzyme> A protein tyrosine phosphatase expressed within dopaminoceptive neurons of the basal ganglia and related structures Registry number: EC 3.1.3.- Synonym: step protein (26 Jun 1999) |
| striate | Striped with parallel longitudinal lines or ridges. (09 Oct 1997) |
| striate area | Area of the occipital lobe concerned with vision. (12 Dec 1998) |
| striate atrophy of skin | Bands of thin wrinkled skin, initially red but becoming purple and white, which occur commonly on the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs at puberty and/or during and following pregnancy, and result from atrophy of the dermis and overextension of the skin; also associated with ascites and Cushing's syndrome. Synonym: atrophoderma striatum, lineae albicantes, lineae atrophicae, linear atrophy, stretch marks, stria, striae atrophicae, striate atrophy of skin, traction atrophy, vergeture. (05 Mar 2000) |
