| juvenile pattern | A precordial T-wave inversion, sometimes with J-ST elevations in an electrocardiogram, resembling that seen in normal children, which occurs as a normal variant in some adults, especially blacks, and especially in leads V1, V2, and V3. (05 Mar 2000) |

| female pattern alopecia | Diffuse partial hair loss in the centroparietal area of the scalp, with preservation of the frontal and temporal hair lines; the most frequent type of androgenic alopecia in women. (05 Mar 2000) |
| female pattern baldness | <dermatology> Hair loss in women that may be associated with aging, hormones (androgens) or genetic predisposition. The pattern of baldness in women is different from that of men. In women there is thinning of the hair all over the scalp, but the frontal hairline is maintained. The hair loss is usually permanent. Treatment has been successful with topical minoxidil in some cases. (27 Sep 1997) |
| accretionary growth | Growth by an increase of intercellular material. (05 Mar 2000) |
| appositional growth | Growth accomplished by the addition of new layers on those previously formed; e.g., the addition of lamellae in the formation of bone; it is the characteristic method of growth when rigid materials are involved. (05 Mar 2000) |
| auxetic growth | Growth by increase in the size of component cells. Synonym: intussusceptive growth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacterial growth | Growth of a bacterial culture either by increase in cell material or cell number. (05 Mar 2000) |
| B-cell differentiation/growth factors | Various substances, usually obtained from the supernatant of T-cell cultures, such as interleukin 4, 5, and 6. These substances are necessary for B-cell growth, maturation, and differentiation into plasma cells or B memory cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biphasic growth curve | <cell culture, microbiology> A particular type of growth curve seen in cultured microorganisms in which they have two exponential growth stages separated by a plateau phase. This double-hump curve is produced when the microbes are cultured using two carbon sources, one of which must be used up before the second can be used. (19 Jan 1998) |
| bovine growth hormone | <endocrinology> A hormone secreted by the bovine pituitary gland. It is used to increase milk production by improving the feed efficiency in dairy cattle. (14 Nov 1997) |
| brain-derived growth factor | <growth factor> Small basic protein purified from pig brain, a member of the family of neurotrophic factors that also includes Nerve Growth Factor and neurotrophin 3. In contrast to nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor is predominanantly (though not exclusively) localised in the CNS. It supports the survival of primary sensory neurons originating from the neural crest and ectodermal placodes that are not responsive to NGF. In the brain brain-derived neurotrophic factor has a trophic action on retinal, cholinergic, and dopaminergic neurons, and in the peripheral nervous system it acts on both motor and sensory neurons. Acronym: BDGF (12 Dec 1998) |
| capon-comb-growth test | A test for androgenic activity, based upon the stimulation of comb growth in capons (castrated cockerels) or immature roosters. Synonym: capon-comb-growth test, cock's comb test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial growth phase | The early pattern of growth of cutaneous malignant melanoma, in which tumour cells spread laterally in the epidermis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular endothelial growth factor | A growth factor that is responsible for the growth of blood vessels. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mammary derived growth inhibitor | Fatty acid binding protein that inhibits proliferation of mammary carcinoma cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
