| granular cast | A relatively dark, dense urinary cast of coarsely or finely particulate cellular debris and other proteinaceous material, frequently seen in chronic renal disease but also in the recovery phase of acute renal failure. See: waxy cast. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular cell tumour | Unusual tumour affecting any site of the body, but most often encountered in the head and neck. Considerable debate has surrounded the histogenesis of this neoplasm; however, it is considered to be a myoblastoma of, usually, a benign nature. It affects women more often than men. When it develops beneath the epidermis or mucous membrane, it can lead to proliferation of the squamous cells and mimic squamous cell carcinoma. (12 Dec 1998) |
| granular component of nucleolus | Area of nucleolus that appears granular in the electron microscope and contains 15nm diameter particles that are maturing ribosomes. In contrast to the pale staining and fibrillar areas. (18 Nov 1997) |
| granular conjunctivitis | A chronic infection of the conjunctiva due to Chlamydia trachomatis, characterised by conjunctival follicles and subsequent cicatrization. See: trachoma. Synonym: granular conjunctivitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular cortex | See: cerebral cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular degeneration | Swelling of cells due to injury to the membranes affecting ionic transfer; causes an accumulation of intracellular water. Synonym: albuminous swelling, granular degeneration, hydropic degeneration, parenchymatous degeneration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular endoplasmic reticulum | Endoplasmic reticulum in which ribosomal granules are applied to the cytoplasmic surface of the cisternae; involved in the synthesis and secretion of protein via membrane-bound vesicles to the extracellular space. Synonym: chromidial substance, ergastoplasm, rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular kidney | A kidney in which fairly uniform, diffusely and evenly situated foci of scarring of the interstitial tissue of the cortex (and sometimes scarring of glomeruli), and the associated slight degree of bulging of groups of dilated tubules, leads to the development of a minutely bosselated surface; such kidney's are seen in arteriolar nephrosclerosis or chronic glomerulonephritis. Synonym: sclerotic kidney. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular layer of a vesicular ovarian follicle | The layer of small cells that forms the wall of an ovarian follicle. Synonym: granular layer of a vesicular ovarian follicle, granulosa, membrana granulosa, stratum granulosum ovarii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular layer of cerebellar cortex | The deepest of the three layers of the cortex; it contains large numbers of granule cells, the dendrites of which synapse with incoming mossy fibres in cerebellar glomeruli. Thin, unmyelinated axons of granule cells ascend perpendicularly into the molecular layer in which they bifurcate into fibres coursing parallel to the long axis of the cerebellar folia. Parallel fibres form numerous synapses with the dendrites of Purkinje cells, basket cells, and stellate cells. Synonym: stratum granulosum cerebelli, granular layer of cerebellar cortex.
