| 영문 | tissue | 한글 | 조직 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 특정 구조와 기능을 갖는 세포 집단. 세포 사이에는 다소간 세포간질이 들어 있다. 세포간질에는 글리코사미노글리칸, 히드록시아파타이트와 같은 기질과 아교질섬유와 같은 섬유가 발견된다. 조직성상은 구성세포와 세포간질의 종류와 양에 의해 결정된다. 조직은 상피조직, 지지조직, 근육조직, 신경조직으로 대별되며, 상피조직은 세포간질을 거의 갖지 않으며, 지지조직은 결합조직이나 뼈조직과 같이 세포간질이 풍부한 것이 많다. |

| 영문 | tissue biopsy | 한글 | 조직생검 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 환자의 병적인 조직의 일부를 떼어 내서 병리조직표본을 만들어서 현미경적으로 검사하는 것. 외과적 수술재료로부터 병리조직학적 검사를 하여 생체내의 병변을 추구하는 분야를 외과병리학이라고 한다. 생검에는 쐐기생검, 천자침생검, 꿰뚫기식생검, 내시경생검 외에 세포진이라고 불리우는 박리세포진이나 세척세포진 등 떨어진 세포를 도말검사하는 방법이 포함된다. |

| 영문 | target tissue | 한글 | 표적조직 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 호르몬에 대하여 표적이 되는 세포라는 의미로서 그 호르몬에 대한 수용체를 가지고 있는 세포. 예를 들어 인슐린은 인슐린 수용체를 가진 세포를 표적세포로 하여 이 세포에만 작용한다. |

| 영문 | subcutaneous tissue, subcutis | 한글 | 피하조직 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 피부에서 진피의 아랫부분을 말함. 여기에는 지방조직이 많다. 기능은 열의 격리, 충격흡수, 영양저장소 등이다. |

| metanephrogenic tissue | Tissue derived from the intermediate mesoderm caudal to mesonephric levels and concerned with the formation of the nephrons of the metanephros. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| ground tissue | <plant biology> Plant tissues other than those of the vascular system and the dermal tissues. Composed of relatively undifferentiated cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| guided tissue regeneration | The repopulating of the periodontium, after treatment for periodontal disease. Repopulation is achieved by guiding the periodontal ligament progenitor cells to reproduce in the desired location by blocking contact of epithelial and gingival connective tissues with the root during healing. This blocking is accomplished by using synthetic membranes or collagen membranes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chondroid tissue | In an adult, tissue resembling cartilage. In an embryo, an early stage in cartilage formation. Synonym: fibrohyaline tissue, pseudocartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gut-associated lymphoid tissue | <physiology> Peripheral lymphoid organ consisting of lymphoid tissue associated with the gut (Peyer's patches, tonsils, mesenteric lymph nodes and the appendix). It is especially rich in B-cells and is responsible for localised immunity to pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites. (20 Sep 2002) |
| chromaffin tissue | Tissue in medulla of adrenal gland containing two populations of cells, one producing adrenaline, the other noradrenaline. The catecholamine is associated with carrier proteins (chromogranins) in membrane vesicles (chromaffin granules). (18 Nov 1997) |
| rubber tissue | A thin sheet of rubber used as a cover in surgical dressings. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mixed connective tissue disease | <syndrome> A syndrome with overlapping clinical features of systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, polymyositis, and Raynaud's phenomenon. The disease is differentially characterised by high serum titres of antibodies to ribonuclease-sensitive extractable (saline soluble) nuclear antigen (nuclear ribonucleoprotein) and a speckled epidermal nuclear staining pattern on direct immunofluorescence. A more modern term for this condition is the undifferentiated connective tissues disease. (22 Sep 2002) |
| Mohs' fresh tissue chemosurgery technique | Chemosurgery in which superficial cancers are excised after fixation in vivo. (05 Mar 2000) |
| compression of tissue | The property of tissue that permits it to be moved from an initial or relaxed position or form. Synonym: compression of tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| platelet tissue factor | <haematology> Traditional name for substance in plasma that converts prothrombin to thrombin. Now known not to be a single substance. (See thrombin). (18 Nov 1997) |
| mucous connective tissue | A type of connective tissue little differentiated beyond the mesenchymal stage; its ground substance of glycoproteins is abundant and contains fine collagenous fibres and fibroblasts; in its most characteristic form, it appears in the umbilical cord as Wharton's jelly. Synonym: gelatinous tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| multilocular adipose tissue | A thermogenic type of adipose tissue containing a dark pigment, and arising during embryonic life in certain specific areas in many mammals, including man. It is prominent in the newborn of all species in which it occurs and remains a distinct and conspicuous tissue in the adults of certain species, especially those that hibernate. It is also called brown adipose tissue. (12 Dec 1998) |
| connective tissue | <pathology> Rather general term for mesodermally derived tissue that may be more or less specialised. Cartilage and bone are specialised connective tissue, as is blood, but the term is probably better reserved for the less specialised tissue that is rich in extracellular matrix (collagen, proteoglycan etc.) and that surrounds other more highly ordered tissues and organs. (18 Nov 1997) |
| connective tissue activating peptide III | Cytokine, produced from platelet basic protein, that acts as a growth factor. (18 Nov 1997) |
