| 설명 | 세포성분 및 분자성분의 복합체계로서, 이의 일차기능은 자기(self)를 비자기(not self)로부터 구별하고 외부생물 또는 물질에 대해 방어하는 것이다. 일차적인 세포성분은 림프구와 큰포식세포이며 일차적인 분자성분은 항체와 림포카인이다. |

| 영문 | urinary system | 한글 | 비뇨기계통 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 비뇨기계통이라하면 콩팥으로부터 시작해서 요관, 방광, 요도에 이르는 일련의 오줌생성 및 저장, 배설기관을 일컫는다. 콩팥은 길이 약 2.5cm, 폭 약 5.1cm, 두께 약 2.5cm, 무게 약 120~160gm으로서, 내측에 콩팥문이 있어 혈관, 신경, 요관이 출입하고 있다. 콩팥은 속질과 겉질로 이루어져 있으며 수질은 10~15개의 추체(오줌을 모으는 역할)를 형성하고 겉질은 약 100만개의 콩팥단위으로 구성되어 있다. 요세관은 토리쪽뇨세관, 헨레고리, 먼쪽뇨세관, 집합관으로 형성되어 있으며, 추체와 술잔, 깔때기를 거쳐 요관으로 연결된다. 콩팥은 혈액을 여과하여 신체 신진대사의 최종산물을 오줌의 형태로 배설하며, 세포외액(extracellular fluid)의 전해질농도를 조절한다. 콩팥에서 형성된 오줌는 요관을 거쳐 방광에서 저장되고 있다가 적당한 시기가 되면 요도를 통해 외계로 배출된다. |

| PAOD | peripheral arterial occlusive disease; peripheral arteriosclerotic occlusive disease |
| peripheral aneurysm | A saclike aneurysm springing from one side of an artery, an aneurysm of one of the smaller branches of an artery. (05 Mar 2000) |

| peripheral anterior synechia | Adhesion of the iris to the posterior surface of the cornea in the angle of the anterior chamber; associated with angle-closure glaucoma. Synonym: peripheral anterior synechia. Origin: G. Gonia, angle, + synechis, holding together (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral arteriosclerosis | Arteriosclerosis in any of the vessels beyond the aorta; most often refers to the lower extremities. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral blood stem cell transplantation | A procedure that is similar to bone marrow transplantation. Doctors remove healthy immature cells (stem cells) from a patient's blood and store them before the patient receives high-dose chemotherapy and possibly radiation therapy to destroy the leukaemia cells. The stem cells are then returned to the patient, where they can produce new blood cells to replace cells destroyed by the treatment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| peripheral cataract | A cataract in which the opacity affects the cortex of the lens. Synonym: peripheral cataract. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral chemoreceptor | The chemoreceptor's in the carotid and aortic bodies that are stimulated by chemical changes in the composition of the blood such as hypoxia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral dysostosis | Dysostosis of the metacarpals and metatarsals, accompanied by variable facial features; possibly autosomal dominant inheritance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral facial paralysis | A condition that involves the facial nerve (VII cranial nerve) and results in the paralysis of one side of the face. Bell's (facial nerve palsy) can be differentiated from a central (stroke) deficit by the inability to raise the eyebrow on the affected side. (27 Sep 1997) |
| peripheral glare | Glare occurring when the surrounding brightness is greater than the brightness of the object of attention. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral lymphoid tissue | Secondary lymphoid tissue, not necessarily located peripherally. See: lymphoid tissue. (18 Nov 1997) |
| peripheral membrane protein | <protein> Membrane proteins that are bound to the surface of the membrane and not integrated into the hydrophobic region. Usually soluble and were originally thought to bind to integral proteins by ionic and other weak forces (and could therefore be removed by high ionic strength, for example). However, it is now clear that some peripheral membrane proteins are covalently linked to molecules that are part of the membrane bilayer (see acylated proteins and glypiation) and that there are others that fit the original definition but are perhps more appropriately considered proteins of the cytoskeleton (e.g. Band 4.1 and spectrin) or extracellular matrix (e.g. Fibronectin). (18 Nov 1997) |
| peripheral nerves | The nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, including the autonomic, cranial, and spinal nerves. Peripheral nerves contain non-neuronal cells and connective tissue as well as axons. The connective tissue layers include, from the outside to the inside, the epineurium, the perineurium, and the endoneurium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| peripheral neuropathy | <neurology> Injury to the nerves that supply sensation to the arms and legs. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (16 Dec 1997) |
| peripheral ossifying fibroma | A reactive focal gingival overgrowth derived histogenetically from cells of the periodontal ligament and usually developing in response to local irritants (plaque and calculus) on associated teeth; consists microscopically of a hyperplastic cellular fibrous stroma supporting deposits of bone, cementum, or dystrophic calcification. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral protein | <protein> A water-soluble protein that is loosely bound (by hydrogen bonds orelectrostatic forces) to a membrane. (09 Oct 1997) |
