| 영문 | gland | 한글 | 샘 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 자신의 대상에 필요가 없는 물질을 만들어 분비하는 세포가 모여서 만드는 구조. 즉 분비물을 제조하는 세포가 모인 것이다. 선에는 내분비샘과 외분비샘의 2가지가 있다. 내분비샘이란 몸밖이 아닌 내부, 즉 직접 혈중으로 분비물을 분비하는 샘으로 이 때에 분비되는 물질을 호르몬이라고 한다. 이것은 주로 몸안의 다른 세포에 작용을 하여 그 세포의 대사, 분열 등의 변화를 초래하고 몸의 환경의 변화에 따른 적응을 돕는 역할을 한다. 외분비샘이란 몸밖으로 관구조를 통하여 분비물을 내보내는 샘을 말한다. |

| 영문 | pineal gland | 한글 | 솔방울샘, 송과선 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 뇌의 중앙선부위의 등쪽에 존재하는 내분비기관이다. 솔방울샘은 melatonin을 분비한다. 동물에서는 성분화발달에 기여하는 것으로 되어 있으나, 사람에서는 그 기능이 아직 명확치 않다. |

| 영문 | prostate gland | 한글 | 전립샘 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 남성생식기의 외분비샘의 일종으로, 방광의 목부분과 요도를 둘러싸고 있다. 전립샘은 정액을 만드는 전립샘액을 분비하며 5개의 엽으로 구성되어 있다. |

| 영문 | salivary gland | 한글 | 침샘, 타액선 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 입 속으로 침을 분비하는 외분비샘으로 인체에는 세 쌍의 침샘이 있는데 귀밑샘, 턱밑샘 및 혀밑샘이 그들이다. 침샘은 분류상으로 소화기계통의 한 장기이며, 소화관의 한 부속샘으로 구분된다. 혀밑샘은 그 외 구강 점막 내에 산재하고 있는 수많은 작은 침샘과 같이 묽은 용액을 끊임없이 분비하고 있지만, 귀밑샘과 턱밑샘은 자극을 받을 때만 침을 분비한다. |

| 영문 | sebaceous gland | 한글 | 피부기름샘 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 피부의 피하조직에 있는 온분비샘(holocrine gland)으로 피부 기름이나, 그 외 기름 성분을 분비한다. |

| FGP | fundic gland polyp |
| greater palatine nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the pterygopalatine ganglion that passes downward through the greater palatine canal to supply the mucosa and glands of the hard palate, and the anterior part of the soft palate. Synonym: nervus palatinus major. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| greater pectoral muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, clavicular part (pars clavicularis), medial half of clavicle; sternocostal part (pars sternocostalis), anterior surface of manubrium and body of sternum and cartilages of first to sixth ribs; abdominal part (pars abdominalis), aponeurosis of external oblique; insertion, crest of greater tubercle of humerus; action, adducts and medially rotates arm; nerve supply, anterior thoracic. Synonym: musculus pectoralis major, greater pectoral muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater pelvis | The expanded portion of the pelvis above the brim. Synonym: pelvis major, false pelvis, large pelvis, pelvis spuria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater peritoneal cavity | The space enclosed by the peritoneum. It is divided into two portions, the greater sac and the lesser sac or omental bursa, which lies behind the stomach. The two sacs are connected by the foramen of winslow, or epiploic foramen. (12 Dec 1998) |
| greater petrosal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The parasympathetic root of the pterygopalatine ganglion; a branch from the genu of the facial nerve exiting via the hiatus of the facial canal and running in a groove on the anterior surface of the petrous part of the temporal bone beside the foramen lacerum to join the deep petrosal nerve, thus forming the nerve of the pterygoid canal, which passes through the pterygoid canal to reach the pterygopalatine ganglion. Synonym: nervus petrosus major, greater petrosal nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater posterior rectus muscle of head | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, spinous process of axis; insertion, middle of inferior nuchal line of occipital bone; action, rotates and draws head backward; nerve supply, dorsal branch of first cervical (suboccipital). See: suboccipital muscles. Synonym: musculus rectus capitis posterior major, greater posterior rectus muscle of head, musculus rectus capitis posticus major. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater psoas muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, bodies of vertebrae and intervertebral disks from the twelfth thoracic to the fifth lumbar, and transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae; insertion, forms a common insertion with iliacus muscle into lesser trochanter of femur; action, flexes hip joint; nerve supply, lumbar plexus (ventral rami of first, second and usually third lumbar spinal nerves). Synonym: musculus psoas major, greater psoas muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater rhomboid muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, spinous processes and corresponding supraspinous ligaments of first four thoracic vertebrae; insertion, medial border of scapula below spine; action, draws scapula toward vertebral column; nerve supply, dorsal of scapula nerve. Synonym: musculus rhomboideus major, greater rhomboid muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater ring of iris | The outer, broader of the two zones of the iris. Synonym: annulus iridis major. (05 Mar 2000) |

| greater splanchnic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Uppermost of the abdominopelvic splanchnic which arises from the fifth or sixth to the ninth or tenth thoracic sympathetic ganglia in the thorax and passes downward along the bodies of the thoracic vertebrae, penetrating the diaphragm to join the coeliac plexus; conveys presynaptic sympathetic fibres to the coeliac ganglia, and visceral afferent fibres from the coeliac plexus. Synonym: nervus splanchnicus major. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater superficial petrosal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The parasympathetic root of the pterygopalatine ganglion; a branch from the genu of the facial nerve exiting via the hiatus of the facial canal and running in a groove on the anterior surface of the petrous part of the temporal bone beside the foramen lacerum to join the deep petrosal nerve, thus forming the nerve of the pterygoid canal, which passes through the pterygoid canal to reach the pterygopalatine ganglion.
