| Hassall's concentric corpuscle | Small spherical bodies of keratinised and usually squamous epithelial cells arranged in a concentric pattern around clusters of degenerating lymphocytes, eosinophils, and macrophages; found in the medulla of the lobules of the thymus. Synonym: Hassall's bodies, Hassall's concentric corpuscle, Virchow-Hassall bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |

| salivary corpuscle | One of the leukocytes present in saliva. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Schwalbe's corpuscle | One of a number of flask-shaped cell nests located in the epithelium of vallate, fungiform, and foliate papillae of the tongue and also in the soft palate, epiglottis, and posterior wall of the pharynx; it consists of sustentacular, gustatory, and basal cells between which the intragemmal sensory nerve fibres terminate. Synonym: caliculus gustatorius, gustatory bud, Schwalbe's corpuscle, taste bulb, taste corpuscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Purkinje's corpuscle | <neurology, pathology> A class of output neurons in the cerebellum, which are the only neurons that convey signals away from the cerebellum. They form a layer of large ganglion cells near the surface of the cerebellum. Origin: From J. E. Purkinje, their discoverer. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pus corpuscle | One of the polymorphonuclear leukocytes that comprise the chief portion of the formed elements in pus. Synonym: pus cell, pyocyte. (05 Mar 2000) |
| shadow corpuscle | A hypochromic, crescent-shaped erythrocyte, probably resulting from artifactual rupture of a red cell with loss of haemoglobin. Synonym: achromacyte, achromatocyte, ghost corpuscle, phantom corpuscle, Ponfick's shadow, shadow corpuscle, shadow, Traube's corpuscle. Origin: G. A-priv. + chroma, colour, + kytos, hollow (cell) (05 Mar 2000) |
| Dogiel's corpuscle | An encapsulated sensory nerve ending. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Donne's corpuscle | One of numerous bodies present in the colostrum, supposed to be modified leukocytes containing fat droplets. Synonym: Donne's corpuscle, galactoblast. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory corpuscle | A cell present in an exudate that assists in the organization of new tissue. Synonym: exudation cell, inflammatory corpuscle, plastic corpuscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oval corpuscle | One of numerous oval bodies found in the papillae of the skin, especially those of the fingers and toes; they consist of a connective tissue capsule in which the axon fibrils terminate around and between a pile of wedge-shaped epithelioid cells. Synonym: corpusculum tactus, Meissner's corpuscle, oval corpuscle, touch corpuscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tactile corpuscle | One of numerous oval bodies found in the papillae of the skin, especially those of the fingers and toes; they consist of a connective tissue capsule in which the axon fibrils terminate around and between a pile of wedge-shaped epithelioid cells. Synonym: corpusculum tactus, Meissner's corpuscle, oval corpuscle, touch corpuscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| taste corpuscle | One of a number of flask-shaped cell nests located in the epithelium of vallate, fungiform, and foliate papillae of the tongue and also in the soft palate, epiglottis, and posterior wall of the pharynx; it consists of sustentacular, gustatory, and basal cells between which the intragemmal sensory nerve fibres terminate. Synonym: caliculus gustatorius, gustatory bud, Schwalbe's corpuscle, taste bulb, taste corpuscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| third corpuscle | <haematology> A discoid cell (3m diameter) found in large numbers in blood, important for blood coagulation and for haemostasis by repairing breaches (small breaks) in the walls of blood vessels. Platelet _ granules contain lysosomal enzymes, dense granules contain ADP (a potent platelet aggregating factor) and serotonin (a vasoactive amine). They also release platelet-derived growth factor which presumably contributes to later repair processes by stimulating fibroblast proliferation. Synonym: thrombocytes. (09 Oct 1997) |
| thymic corpuscle | Small spherical bodies of keratinised and usually squamous epithelial cells arranged in a concentric pattern around clusters of degenerating lymphocytes, eosinophils, and macrophages; found in the medulla of the lobules of the thymus. Synonym: Hassall's bodies, Hassall's concentric corpuscle, Virchow-Hassall bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| touch corpuscle | One of numerous oval bodies found in the papillae of the skin, especially those of the fingers and toes; they consist of a connective tissue capsule in which the axon fibrils terminate around and between a pile of wedge-shaped epithelioid cells.
