| basophilia | 1. Having an affinity for basic dyes. 2. <haematology> Condition in which there is an excess of basophils in the blood. (18 Nov 1997) |
| basophilic | Denoting tissue components having an affinity for basic dyes under specific pH conditions. Synonym: basophil, basophile. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilic degeneration | Blue staining of connective tissues when haematoxylin-eosin stain is used; found in such conditions as solar elastosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilic leukaemia | A form of granulocytic leukaemia in which there are unusually great numbers of basophilic granulocytes in the tissues and circulating blood; in some instances, the immature and mature basophilic forms may represent from 40 to 80% of the total numbers of white blood cells. Synonym: mast cell leukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilic leukocyte | A polymorphonuclear leukocyte characterised by many large, coarse, metachromatic granules (dark purple or blue-black when treated with Wright's or similar stains) that usually fill the cytoplasm and may almost mask the nucleus; these leukocyte's are unique in that they usually do not occur in increased numbers as the result of acute infectious disease, and their phagocytic qualities are probably not significant; the granules, which contain heparin and histamine, may degranulate in response to hypersensitivity reactions and can be of significance in general inflammation. Synonym: basocyte, basophilocyte, mast leukocyte. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilic leukocytosis | The presence of an abnormally large number of basophilic granulocytes in the blood. Synonym: basocytosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilic leukopenia | A decrease in the number of basophilic granulocytes normally present in the circulating blood (difficult to evaluate, owing to the small and variable number normally present). Synonym: basocytopenia, basopenia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilic substance | The material consisting of granular endoplasmic reticulum and ribosomes that occurs in nerve cell bodies and dendrites. Synonym: basophil substance, basophilic substance, chromophil substance, Nissl bodies, Nissl granules, substantia basophilia, tigroid bodies, tigroid substance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilism | Synonym: basophilia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophilocyte | A polymorphonuclear leukocyte characterised by many large, coarse, metachromatic granules (dark purple or blue-black when treated with Wright's or similar stains) that usually fill the cytoplasm and may almost mask the nucleus; these leukocyte's are unique in that they usually do not occur in increased numbers as the result of acute infectious disease, and their phagocytic qualities are probably not significant; the granules, which contain heparin and histamine, may degranulate in response to hypersensitivity reactions and can be of significance in general inflammation. Synonym: basocyte, basophilocyte, mast leukocyte. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basophils | Granular leukocytes characterised by a relatively pale-staining, lobate nucleus and cytoplasm containing coarse dark-staining granules of variable size and stainable by basic dyes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| basoplasm | That part of the cytoplasm that stains readily with basic dyes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basosquamous carcinoma | <tumour> A carcinoma of the skin which in structure and behaviour is considered transitional between basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma The term should not be used for the much more common keratotic variety of basal cell carcinoma, in which the tumour cells are of basal type but which contains small foci of abrupt keratinization. Synonym: basal squamous cell carcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
