| 설명 | 포도당견딤 검사란 당뇨병의 진단에 사용되는 검사로 당을 체내에 투여하고 시간 별로 혈액을 채취하여 혈당의 농도를 재어서 고혈당 여부를 조사하는 검사이다. 주로 경구포도당견딤검사(oral glucose tolerance test)를 많이 하는데 이것은 10~16시간의 금식 후에 채혈을 한번 한뒤에 도당 75g을 250~300mL의 물에 녹여 5분에 걸쳐서 마시게 하고 매시간 별로 채혈을 하여 혈당의 농도를 첵크한다. 공복시에 정맥에서 채혈하여 측정한 혈당이 140mg/dL이상이거나 포도당견딤 검사 2시간후의 혈당이 200mg/dL이상일 경우에는 당뇨병으로 진단을 한다. 그러나 이 검사를 실시할 경우에 주의해야 할 점은 검사전 3일간 하루에 150g이상의 탄수화물을 섭취해야 한다는 것과 검사도중에 운동, 흡연 등을 하지 않아야 한다는 것이다. |

| contact inhibition of phagocytosis | Phenomenon described in sheets of kidney epithelial cells that, when confluent, lose their weak phagocytic activity, probably because of a failure of adhesion of particles to the dorsal surface in the absence of ruffles. (18 Nov 1997) |

| haemagglutination inhibition | A variation of the haemagglutination technique. Some viral antigens, when coated on erythrocytes, spontaneously cause agglutination in the absence of antibody. In these situations, the specific antigen-antibody reaction actually prevents the agglutination of reagent RBCs. Haemagglutination inhibition cannot differentiate between isotypes of specific antibodies (IgG, IgA or IgM) although positive haemagglutination inhibition analysis of specimens treated with Staphylococcus aureus Protein A (discussed above under coagglutination) to remove the IgG isotype antibodies has been used to imply the presence of specific IgM antibodies to the specific viral antigen. The crude quantitation of the specific antibodies is possible using serial dilution (titre). (05 Mar 2000) |
| haemagglutination inhibition tests | Serologic tests in which a known quantity of antigen is added to the serum prior to the addition of a red cell suspension. Reaction result is expressed as the smallest amount of antigen which causes complete inhibition of haemagglutination. (12 Dec 1998) |
| potassium inhibition | Arrest of the heart in the fully relaxed state as a result of potassium intoxication. (05 Mar 2000) |
| haptenic inhibition | <immunology, molecular biology> Could be considered an isolated epitope: although a hapten (by definition) has an antibody directed against it, the hapten alone will not induce an immune response if injected into an animal, it must be conjugated to a carrier (usually a protein). The hapten constitutes a single antigenic determinant, perhaps the best known example is dinitro phenol (DNP) that can be conjugated to BSA and against which antiDNP antibodies are produced (antibodies to the BSA can be adsorbed out). Because the hapten is monovalent, immune complex formation will be blocked if the soluble hapten is present as well as the hapten carrier conjugate (assuming there is more than one hapten per carrier then an immune precipitate can be formed). Competitive inhibition by the soluble small molecule is sometimes referred to as haptenic inhibition and this term has carried over into lectin mediated haemagglutination where monosaccharides are added to try to block haemagglutination: the blocking sugar defines the specificity of the lectin. (18 Nov 1997) |
| hapten inhibition of precipitation | Inhibition of precipitation that occurs when the precipitin has combined with hapten of the same specificity as the subsequently added antigen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proactive inhibition | The state or process hypothesised to account for poorer learning rate for elements later in a series as compared to the learning rate for elements coming earlier in a series. (12 Dec 1998) |
| product inhibition | Inhibition of an enzyme activity by a product of the reaction catalyzed by that enzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
| selective inhibition | <chemistry> Inhibitor that occupies the active site of an enzyme or the binding site of a receptor and prevents the normal substrate or ligand from binding. at sufficiently high concentration of the normal ligand inhibition is lost: the Km is altered by the competitive inhibitor, but the Vmax remains the same. (05 Jan 1998) |
| noncompetitive inhibition | <chemistry> A form of enzyme inhibition which cannot be reversed by increasing the amount of substrate in the reaction. (09 Oct 1997) |
| substrate inhibition | Inhibition of an enzyme activity by a substrate of the reaction catalyzed by that enzyme; often, this type of inhibition occurs at elevated substrate levels in which the substrate is binding to a second, non-active site on the enzyme. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nonreciprocal contact inhibition | <cell biology> Collision behaviour between different cell types in which one cell shows contact inhibition of locomotion and the other does not. An example is the interaction between sarcoma cells and fibroblasts (the former not being inhibited). (18 Nov 1997) |
| density dependent inhibition of growth | <cell culture> The phenomenon exhibited by most normal (anchorage dependent) animal cells in culture that stop dividing once a critical cell density is reached. The critical density is considerably higher for most cells than the density at which a monolayer is formed, for this reason, most cell behaviourists prefer the term density dependent inhibition of growth as this avoids any confusion with contact inhibition of locomotion, a totally different phenomenon that is contact dependent. (12 Jan 1998) |
| inhibition | 1. Arrest or restraint of a process. 2. <psychology> The interference with or prevention of a behavioural or verbal response even though the stimulus for that response is present; in psychoanalysis the unconscious restraining of an instinctual process. Origin: L. Inhibere = to restrain, habere = to hold (04 Jul 1999) |
| inhibition factor | <growth factor> A soluble, nondialysable factor that is produced by sensitised lymphocytes following exposure to a specific antigen. It inhibits macrophage migration and causes adherence. It was originally defined on the basis of inhibition of emigration of mononuclear cells from capillary (haematocrit) tubes, more recently a 13 kD protein with migration inhibitory activity has been isolated. Acronym: MIF Synonym: inhibition factor. (22 Sep 2002) |
