| tetracycline resistance | Nonsusceptibility of a microbe (usually a bacterium) to the action of tetracycline, which binds to the 30s ribosomal subunit and prevents the normal binding of aminoacyl-trna. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| thyroid hormone resistance syndrome | <syndrome> An inherited syndrome of peripheral resistance to thyroid hormones, transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait, characterised by increased serum concentrations of thyroxine and triiodothyronine, increased thyroid hormone binding ratio, and normal to slightly increased thyroid-stimulating hormone and its response to thyrotropin-releasing hormone. The affected persons are euthyroid to slightly hypothyroid. The absence of hypermetabolism and the presence of possible hypothyroidism indicate the existence of partial resistance to the peripheral action of thyroid hormone. (12 Dec 1998) |
| thyrotropin resistance | An autosomal recessive disorder in which the thyrocytes are unresponsive to thyrotropin. Compare: pseudohypoparathyroidism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| total peripheral resistance | The total resistance to flow of blood in the systemic circuit; the quotient produced by dividing the mean arterial pressure by the cardiac minute-volume. Synonym: peripheral resistance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trimethoprim resistance | Nonsusceptibility of a bacterium to the action of trimethoprim. (12 Dec 1998) |
| expiratory resistance | Resistance to flow of gas out of the lungs or the total resistance to flow of gas during the expiratory phase of the respiratory cycle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| kanamycin resistance | Nonsusceptibility of bacteria to the antibiotic kanamycin, which can bind to their 70s ribosomes and cause misreading of messenger RNA. (12 Dec 1998) |
