| 설명 | 점액으로 구성된 종양을 말하는데 주로 여성의 난소에서 발생하는 낭성(물주머니같은 종양을 말함) 종양에서 많이 볼 수 있다. |

| 설명 | 조절할 수 없이 계속 진행되는 세포분열에 의한 조직의 새로운 증식 및 증대. 신생물. (1) 분류 A. 침윤과 전이의 유무에 따라 i)양성종양: 침윤과 전이가 없고 역형성이 낮은 세포로 구성됨. 대개 치료에 반응이 높고, 생명에 크게 지장이 없으며, 재발하는 경우도 적다. 증상은 단지 주위조직에 대한 압박정도이다. ii)악성종양: 침윤과 전이가 있고 퇴화도가 높은 세포로 구성됨. 기원세포가 상피조직일 경우 암종, 비상피성일 경우 육종으로 나누기도 한다. 치료에 잘 반응하지 않고, 재발을 잘 하며, 생존율이 낮다. 흔히 말하는 “암”을 의미한다. B. 조직학적 특징에 따라 샘종, 지방종, 근종 등으로 나누기도 한다. (2) 병리조직학적 특징 A. 육안적 소견 덩어리를 형성하기도 하고 정상조직에 스며들듯이 판상구조를 이루기도 하는 등 다양한 형태를 보인다. 양성의 경우 피막을 가진 경우가 많고 악성의 경우 없는 경우가 많다. 육안소견에 따라 다음과 같이 나눈다. 낭성, 융기성, 괴사성, 폴립모양, 궤양형 등이 있다. 또는 세포의 크기와 모양이 비정상적인 형태로 변화한다. 핵의 극성이 사라지고 핵의 염색성이 짙어진다. 세포질의 염색성도 변화하며 세포들간의 세포주기가 매우 다양해져 많은 세포분열을 보인다. 이러한 일련의 변화를 역형성이라 한다. 역형성의 정도에 따라 조직학적 등급을 나눈다. 또한 각 종양에 따라 각기 다른 병리조직학적 명칭을 붙인다. |

| state-dependent learning | Learning during a specific state of sleep or wakefulness, or during a chemically altered state, where retrieval of learned information (e.g., as measured by performance of a learned response) cannot be demonstrated unless the subject is restored to the state that originally existed during learning.

| non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus | <disease> An often mild form of diabetes mellitus of gradual onset, usually in obese individuals over age 35; absolute plasma insulin levels are normal to high, but relatively low in relation to plasma glucose levels; ketoacidosis is rare, but hyperosmolar coma can occur; responds well to dietary regulation and/or oral hypoglycaemic agents, but diabetic complications and degenerative changes can develop. (05 Mar 2000) |
| density-dependent | <epidemiology> 1. Effects whose intensity changes with increasing population density. 2. Effects whose intensity increases with increasing population density, for example a mortality which becomes very high near a carrying capacity. Effects which become less pronounced at higher population sizes (perhaps the reduction in fecundity caused by the difficulty of mating) are sometimes called inverse density dependent. Density dependent effects are often a cause of nonlinearity in a model. (05 Dec 1998) |
| 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) |
| dependent | Exhibiting dependence or dependency. (18 Nov 1997) |
| dependent beat | <cardiology, physiology> An extrasystole supposedly precipitated in some way by the preceding normal beat to which it is coupled, an extrasystole caused by artificial stimulation of the heart. Synonym: dependent beat. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dependent drainage | Drainage from the lowest part and into a receptacle at a level lower than the structure being drained. Synonym: downward drainage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dependent oedema | A clinically detectable increase in extracellular fluid volume localised in a dependent area, as of a limb, characterised by swelling or pitting. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dependent personality | A personality in which a person passively allows others to assume responsibility for making decisions affecting him/her, characterised by a lack of self-confidence and an inability to function independently. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dependent personality disorder | An individual who fears separation and engaging othhers to assume responsibility (27 Sep 1997) |
| dependent variable | In experiments, a variable that is influenced by or dependent upon changes in the independent variable; e.g., the amount of a written passage retained (dependent variable) as a function of the different numbers of minutes (independent variable) allowed to study the passage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diabetes mellitus, insulin-dependent | Diabetes mellitus characterised by insulin deficiency, sudden onset, severe hyperglycaemia, rapid progression to ketoacidosis, and death unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence. (12 Dec 1998) |
| diabetes mellitus, non-insulin-dependent | Diabetes characterised by the ability to survive without ketoacidosis in the absence of insulin therapy. It is usually of slow onset and patients exhibit a tendency to obesity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| DNA-dependent ATPase | <enzyme> Factor y is a phage 174 specific DNA-dependent atpase; atpase I can act with double-stranded DNA; atpase II and III require single-stranded DNA; a18r from vaccinia virus Registry number: EC 3.6.1.- Synonym: DNA helicase II, factor y, DNA-dependent atpase I, DNA-dependent atpase II, DNA-dependent atpase III, rep protein (E coli), atpase, DNA-dependent, DNA-dependent atpase iv, uvrd protein, rep helicase, pri a protein, protein n', rip100, pria helicase, pria protein (helicase), a18r gene product, DNA helicase a (26 Jun 1999) |
| DNA-dependent ATPase-endonuclease | <enzyme> Atpase and endonuclease are part of a single protein from phage t4 infected E coli; atpase is activated by duplex, single-stranded or supercoiled DNA Registry number: EC 3.1.21.- Synonym: atpase-endonuclease (26 Jun 1999) |
