| 영문 | sural nerve | 한글 | 장딴지신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 안쪽장딴지피부신경 및 온장딴지신경의 교통지에서 시작하여 가쪽배쪽피부신경 및 가쪽발꿈치가지의 가지를 낸다. 넙다리 등쪽의 피부, 발꿈치와 발의 가쪽의 피부 및 관절에 분포하며, 일반 감각성 기능을 한다. |

| 영문 | spinal nerve | 한글 | 척수신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 척수의 앞뿔에서 출발하는 운동신경과 뒷뿔으로 들어오는 감각신경이 합쳐서 형성되는 신경으로서 총 31쌍이 존재함. 목뼈신경이 8쌍, 자등뼈신경이 12쌍, 허리뼈의 신경이 5쌍, 엉치뼈의 6쌍을 이룸. |

| 영문 | auditory nerve | 한글 | 청신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 귀에서 감지된 청각의 신호를 대뇌로 보내는 역할을 하는 신경. 달팽이신경라고 불리기도 한다. 그것은 소리를 전기적 신호로 바꾸어 신경으로 전달해 주는 달팽이의 집같이 생긴 기관을 달팽이라고 부르기 때문이다.  |

| end-feet | The somewhat enlarged, often club-shaped endings by which axons make synaptic contacts with other nerve cells or with effector cells (muscle or gland cells). As isolated, by homogenizing brain or spinal cord, they contain acetylcholine and the related enzymes. Terminals contain neurotransmitters of various kinds, sometimes more than one. These can be demonstrated by chemical analysis and immunocytochemical methods. See: synapse. Synonym: axonal terminal boutons, end-feet, neuropodia, pieds terminaux, synaptic boutons, synaptic endings, synaptic terminals, terminal boutons, bouton terminaux. (05 Mar 2000) |

| end-filling | The use of DNA polymerase to create a blunt end (both strands are the same length and end together) on double-stranded DNA that has a staggered end (one strand is longer than the other so there is a single-stranded section at the end of the molecule). (09 Oct 1997) |
| end-on mattress suture | A vertical mattress suture used for exact skin approximation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end organ | The special structure containing the terminal of a nerve fibre in peripheral tissue such as muscle, tissue, skin, mucous membrane, or glands. See: ending. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end oxidation | <biochemistry> The last oxidation step in a catabolic pathway. Synonym: terminal oxidation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end-piece | The terminal part of the tail of a spermatozoon consisting of the axoneme and the flagellar membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end plate | <anatomy, physiology> The area of sarcolemma immediately below the synaptic region of the motor neuron in a neuromuscular junction. most often refers to the end of a nerve fibre against a skeletal muscle fibre, to which it transmits nerve signals. (18 Nov 1997) |
| end plate potential | <physiology> Depolarisation of the sarcolemma as a result of acetylcholine release from the motoneuron causing an influx of sodium ions. The endplate potential is the sum of quantal miniature endplate potentials. Development of the end plate potential is blocked by curare. (18 Nov 1997) |
| end point | <chemistry> It is the completion point during a titration reaction where there are equal amounts of titrant and whatever is being titrated. It is usually evident by the first perceptible alteration of the colour of an added indicator. <immunology> It is the most dilute an antibody or antiserum solution can be while still detectably reacting with the antigen. <statistics> A category of data used to compare the outcome in different arms of a clinical trial. Common endpoints are severe toxicity, disease progression or fall in such surrogate markers as CD4 count, but sometimes death is used as an endpoint. (08 Mar 2000) |
| end-point measurement | Analytical measurement at the end of a chemical reaction, as opposed to making the measurement while the reaction proceeds. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end-point nystagmus | A jerky, physiologic nystagmus occurring in a normal individual when attempts are made to fixate a point at the limits of the field of fixation. Synonym: deviational nystagmus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end product | <biochemistry> The final product of after a series of reactions with enzymes in a biochemical metabolic pathway has taken place. (09 Oct 1997) |
| end product inhibition | <biochemistry, physiology> The process of the end product of a particular metabolic reaction inhibiting an allosteric enzyme involved in that reaction as the reaction starts again, thus breaking the reaction cycle. (09 Oct 1997) |
| end product repression | Catabolite repression in which the catabolite is an end product of a particular pathway. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end stage | The late, fully developed phase of a disease; e.g., in end-stage renal disease, a shrunken and scarred kidney that may result from a variety of chronic diseases that have become indistinguishable in their effect on the kidney. (05 Mar 2000) |
