| 영문 | bronchogenic carcinoma | 한글 | 기관지원성 암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 폐의 기관지 세포에서 기원하는 종양. 폐암의 종류에서 가장 흔한 형태(90%이상)이다. 현미경적 소견에 따라 샘암종, 큰세포암종, 소세포(작은세포) 암종의 4가지로 나눈다. 이중에서 편평세포암종이 가장 흔한 형태이다. 임상적으로는 비소세포폐암(non-small cell lung cancer)와 소세포폐암(small cell lung cancer)로 구분을 하는데, 비소세포폐암의 경우 종양세포의 성장이 느리고 수술적 제거가 치료의 기본이 되고 예후도 좋은 반면, 소세포폐암의 경우에는 암세포의 성장이 매우 빠르고 치료도 방사선치료를 기본으로 하며 예후도 비소세포폐암에 비해서 좋지가 못하다. |

| 영문 | embryonal carcinoma | 한글 | 배아암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 생식세포에서 생기는 암종의 하나로 대부분 고환에서 발생한다. 드물게는 종격동에서도 발생한다. 40~50대의 남성에게 많으나, 이보다 낮은 연령층에서도 나타난다. 육안적으로는 회백색의 분엽을 보이는 덩어리를 형성하며, 고환 악성 종양 중 예후가 좋은 편이다. 치료의 원칙은 가급적 신속하게 원발소를 절제하고 예상되는 전이병터에 대하여 방사선 조사요법을 행해야 한다. 태생암종 방사선요법에 대하여 매우 감수성이 높기 때문에 병기가 초기이면 90% 이상의 치료가 기대된다. 그리고 화학요법제에 의해 그 치료성과가 상승하고 있다. |

| 영문 | carcinoma in situ | 한글 | 상피내암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 신체의 내부나 외부를 쌓고 있는 조직을 상피라고 한다. 이 상피의 아래에는 대개 상피를 지지하고 있는 조직의 위에 존재한다. 그리고 이 지지조직과 상피 사이에는 기저막이라는 막이 있어서 상피와 지지조직을 구분해 준다. 암종(carcinoma)란 상피의 세포가 악성 변화를 하여 생기는 암을 말한다. 제자리암종이란 암종의 한 종류로 암종이 기저막을 벗어나지 못하고 상피내 즉, 제자리에 머물러 있는 경우를 말한다. |

| 영문 | carcinoma | 한글 | 암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 암종이란 상피세포(-신체의 내부나 외부를 쌓고 있는 조직을 상피라고 하고, 상피를 이루고 있는 세포를 상피세포라고 한다)의 과도한 증식에의한 악성종양을 이르는 말이다. |

| 영문 | renal cell carcinoma | 한글 | 콩팥세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥에 생긴 원시콩팥조직에서 발생한 암. 주로 원시세뇨관조직에서 발생한다. 대표적인 세포조직형은 염색시 세포질이 맑게 비어보이는 맑은세포암종이다. 치료는 수술과 항암화학요법이며 아주 드물지만 저절로 낫는 경우도 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. |

| HIV long-terminal repeat | Regulatory sequences important for viral replication that are located on each end of the HIV genome. The ltr includes the HIV enhancer, promoter, and other sequences. Specific regions in the ltr include the negative regulatory element (nre), nf-kappa b binding sites , sp1 binding sites, tata box, and trans-acting responsive element (tar). The binding of both cellular and viral proteins to these regions regulates HIV transcription. (12 Dec 1998) |

| NH2-terminal | <biochemistry> The end of a protein or polypeptide chain with the unattached amino group or the aminoacyl residue containing it. Each amino acid in the chain has an amino group on one side, which is attached to the carboxyl group (COOH group) of the previous amino acid, and a carboxyl group on the other side (which is attached to the amino group of the next amino acid). The other end of the polypeptide chain is called the carboxyl terminal. Synonym: NH2-terminal. (14 Aug 2000) |

| ileitis, terminal | Crohn's disease, a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestine involving only the end of the small intestine (the terminal ileum). Crohn's disease affects primarily the small and large intestines but which can occur anywhere in the digestive system between the mouth and the anus. Named after burrill crohn who described the disease in 1932. The disease often strikes persons in their teens or early twenties. It tends to be chronic, recurrent with periods of remission and exacerbation. In the early stages. It causes small scattered shallow crater-like areas (erosions) called apthous ulcers in the inner surface of the bowel. With time, deeper and larger ulcers develop, causing scarring and stiffness of the bowel and the bowel becomes increasingly narrowed, leading to obstruction. Deep ulcers can puncture holes in the bowel wall, leading to infection in the abdominal cavity (peritonitis) and in adjacent organs abdominal pain, diarrhoea, vomiting, fever, and weight loss can be symptoms. Crohn's disease can be associated with reddish tender skin nodules, and inflammation of the joints, spine, eyes, and liver. Diagnosis is by barium enema, barium X-ray of the small bowel, and colonoscopy. Treatment includes medications for inflammation, immune suppression, antibiotics, or surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
