Synonym: ligamentum costotransversarium laterale, ligamentum costotransversarium posterius, ligamentum tuberculi costae, posterior costotransverse ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamentum ulnocarpale palmare | <anatomy> The fibrous band that passes from the ulnar styloid process to the carpal bones. Synonym: ligamentum ulnocarpale palmare. (05 Mar 2000) |

| ligamentum umbilicale medianum | <anatomy> The remnant of the urachus, contained in the median umbilical fold; it persists as a midline fibrous cord between the apex of the bladder and the umbilicus. Synonym: ligamentum umbilicale medianum, middle umbilical ligament, urachal ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamentum venae cavae sinistrae | The obliterated left common cardinal vein; it extends from the left brachiocephalic vein to the oblique vein of the left atrium. Synonym: ligamentum venae cavae sinistrae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamentum venosum | A thin fibrous cord, lying in the fissure of the ligamentum venosum, the remains of the ductus venosus of the foetus. Synonym: Arantius' ligament, ligamentum ductus venosi, venous ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamentum ventriculare | <anatomy> The thin fibrous layer that lies in the ventricular fold of the larynx. Synonym: ligamentum vestibulare, ligamentum ventriculare, ventricular ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamentum vestibulare | <anatomy> The thin fibrous layer that lies in the ventricular fold of the larynx. Synonym: ligamentum vestibulare, ligamentum ventriculare, ventricular ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligamentum vocale | <anatomy> The band that extends on either side from the thyroid cartilage to the vocal process of the arytenoid cartilage; it is the thickened, free upper border of the conus elasticus of the larynx. Synonym: ligamentum vocale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligand | <chemistry, immunology> Any molecule that binds to another, in normal usage a soluble molecule such as a hormone or neurotransmitter, that binds to a receptor. The decision as to which is the ligand and which the receptor is often a little arbitrary when the broader sense of receptor is used (where there is no implication of transduction of signal). In these cases it is probably a good rule to consider the ligand to be the smaller of the two thus in a lectin sugar interaction, the sugar would be the ligand (even though it is attached to a much larger molecule, recognition is of the saccharide). (18 Nov 1997) |
| ligand binding site | The site on a protein's surface that binds a ligand; equivalent to the active site if the ligand is the substrate of an enzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligand gated ion channel | A transmembrane ion channel whose permeability is increased by the binding of a specific ligand, typically a neurotransmitter at a chemical synapse. The permeability change is often drastic, such channels let through effectively no ions when shut, but allow passage at up to 10exp7 ions sexp 1 when a ligand is bound. Recently, the receptors for both acetylcholine and GABA have been found to share considerable sequence homology, implying that there may be a family of structurally related ligand gated ion channels. (18 Nov 1997) |
| ligand induced endocytosis | The formation of coated pits and then coated vesicles as a consequence of the interaction of ligand with receptors, which then interact with clathrin and associated proteins (coatomers) on the cytoplasmic face of the plasma membrane and come together to form a pit. Not all coated vesicle uptake of receptors requires receptor occupancy. (18 Nov 1997) |
