| 영문 | bone age | 한글 | 뼈나이, 골연령 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 생리적 연령의 일종으로 나이를 더함에 따른 뼈의 성숙도를 평가하여 어린이의 전신발육을 판정하는 것이다. 뼈나이 평가에는 손목뼈나 발목뼈의 X선사진을 바탕으로 각 화골중심의 형태나 수를 평가한다. 손목뼈의 화골개수를 세는 방법은 간단해서 그의 수는 난 해를 포함한 연령과 거의 일치하지만 뼈발육의 지속을 가늠할 수 있다. |

| 영문 | mandibular bone, mandible | 한글 | 아래턱뼈, 하악골 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 얼굴을 구성하는 뼈의 한 종류로써, 흔히 말하는 "턱"을 이루는 뼈를 말한다. 얼굴뼈를 이루는 뼈는 위턱뼈(maxillary bone), 아래뼈(mandibular bone), 눈물뼈(lacrimal bone), 코뼈(nasal bone), 광대뼈(zygomatic bone), 보습뼈(vomer) 등이 있다. |

| 영문 | red bone marrow | 한글 | 적색골수 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 분화중의 갈비뼈, 척추뼈나 그 외의 많은 작은 뼈에 있는 활동성 골수이다. 적혈구나 과립백혈구의 생산 장소이다. |

| 영문 | nasal bone | 한글 | 코뼈 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 코뿌리의 기초를 이루는 사다리꼴의 얇은 뼈로 좌우 한 쌍의 물렁뼈이며, 정중앙선에서 붙어 있다. 코뼈의 윗모서리는 이마뼈, 아래모서리는 코선반연골, 가쪽모서리는 위턱뼈이마돌기와 접한다. 바깥면은 평활하지만 속안면은 요면을 이루며, 세로로 걸친 벌집뼈신경구는 코뼈구멍으로 연결되어 앞벌집뼈신경과 통한다. |

| Remak's nuclear division | <cell biology> An unusual form of nuclear division, in which the nucleus simply constricts, rather like a cell without chromosome condensation or spindle formation. Partitioning of daughter chromosomes is haphazard. Observed in some Protozoa. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| Pelger-Huet nuclear anomaly | Congenital inhibition of lobulation in the nuclei of neutrophilic leukocytes; most cells present band or bilobulate appearance, and only an occasional cell is trilobed; it is not associated with disease, but may be confused with leukocyte "shift to left"; autosomal dominant inheritance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ribonucleoproteins, small nuclear | Highly conserved nuclear RNA-protein complexes that function in RNA processing in the nucleus, including pre-mRNA splicing and pre-mRNA 3'-end processing in the nucleoplasm. The u3 snrnp is localised in the nucleolus, where it aligns into base pairs with the 28s rrna precursor in a still unidentified region and functions in pre-rrna processing. The u7 snrnp aligns into base pairs with a conserved sequence in the 3'-end of histone pre-mRNA and is an essential cofactor for the cleavage that creates the mature nonadenylated 3'-end. (12 Dec 1998) |
| RNA, heterogeneous nuclear | Nuclear nonribosomal RNA larger than about 1000 nucleotides, the mass of which is rapidly synthesised and degraded within the cell nucleus. Some heterogeneous nuclear RNA may be a precursor to mRNA. However, the great bulk of total hnrna hybridises with nuclear DNA rather than with mRNA. (12 Dec 1998) |
| RNA, nuclear | RNA molecules found in the nucleus either associated with chromosomes or in the nucleoplasm. (12 Dec 1998) |
| RNA, small nuclear | Short chains of RNA found in the nucleus. Their function is to remove the introns (nontranslated intervening sequences) from mRNA precursors, thereby bringing the two exons (coding segments) together into correct juxtaposition for enzymatic splicing at the correct point. The resulting mRNA is now ready to leave the nucleus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| rod nuclear cell | <pathology> Immature neutrophils released from the bone marrow reserve in response to acute demand. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cistern of nuclear envelope | The space between the internal and external membranes of the nuclear envelope; may be continuous in places with cisterns of the endoplasmic reticulum. Synonym: cistern of nuclear envelope, perinuclear space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proliferating cell nuclear antigen | Acidic nuclear protein (33 kD) highly expressed in dividing cells. Interacts with D type cyclins. (18 Nov 1997) |
| heterogeneous nuclear RNA | An ill-defined form of RNA, of high molecular weight, that never leaves the nucleus and is thought to be the precursor of messenger RNA. (05 Mar 2000) |
| heterogenous nuclear RNA | <molecular biology> Originally identified as a class of RNA, found in the nucleus but not the nucleolus, which is rapidly labelled and with a very wide range of sizes, 2-40 kilobases. It represents the primary transcripts of RNA polymerase II and includes precursors of all messenger RNAs from which introns are removed by splicing. (18 Nov 1997) |
| small nuclear RNA | <molecular biology> A nucleic acid found in all living cells. Plays a role in transferring information from DNA to the protein-forming system of the cell. (16 Dec 1997) |
| nuclear | <cell biology> Of or pertaining to a nucleus; as, the nuclear spindle or the nuclear fibrils of a cell; the nuclear part of a comet, etc. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| Nuclear actin binding protein | <molecular biology> Nuclear protein, dimer of 34 kD subunits. Binds actin with Kd of around 25M. (18 Nov 1997) |
| nuclear atom | <physics, radiobiology> A concept or model of the atom characterised by the presence of a small, massive nucleus at its centre. (05 Mar 2000) |
