| anaplastic cell | A cell that has reverted to an embryonal state, an undifferentiated cell, characteristic of malignant neoplasms. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| anaplastic large cell lymphoma | <tumour> A form of lymphoma characterised by anaplasia of cells, sinusoidal growth, and immunoreactivity with CD30 (Ki-1 or Ber-H2). Synonym: Ki-1+ lymphoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| animal cell culture | <cell culture> Mammalian cells are fragile and harder to grow than other cell types, but their large-scale culturing is an economic boon because it allows for the production of proteins that are otherwise difficult or expensive or unethical to extract from living organisms. The cells are immobilised on a substrate and then perfused with culture medium, The cells are in a free suspension which is very gently mixed and aerated. (12 Nov 1997) |
| animal cell immobilisation | <cell culture> Animal cells are widely used in biotechnology to produce genetically engineered proteins. However, they are more fragile than bacterial cells, and immobilising the cell facilitates the fermentation process. Many animal cells stick down flat on a suitable surface, hugging it as they would hug other cells or connective matrices in the body. If grown on suitable plastic surfaces, on glass or many ceramics, these cells will stick to them. In this way, they are easier to grow. (14 Nov 1997) |
| animalised cell | <zoology> The 8-16 cell early blastula of sea urchins has animal and vegetal poles, by manipulating the environmental conditions it is possible to shift more cells from vegetal to animal in their characteristics. (12 Nov 1997) |
| Anitschkow cell | A large mononuclear cell found in connective tissue of the heart wall in inflammatory conditions, especially in the Aschoff body. The ovoid nucleus contains a central chromatin mass appearing as a wavy bar in longitudinal section. Synonym: Anitschkow cell, Anitschkow myocyte, caterpillar cell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior horn cell | Synonym for motoneuron. (18 Nov 1997) |
| antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity | The phenomenon of antibody-mediated target cell destruction by non-sensitised effector cells. The identity of the target cell varies, but it must possess surface IgG whose fc portion is intact. The effector cell is a "killer" cell possessing fc receptors. It may be a lymphocyte lacking conventional b- or T-cell markers, or a monocyte, macrophage, or polynuclear leukocyte, depending on the identity of the target cell. The reaction is complement-independent. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibody-forming cell | <immunology> B-cells (plasma cells) that are dedicated to producing secreted antibodies. (09 Feb 1998) |
| antibody producing cell | <immunology> A lymphocyte of the B series synthesising and releasing immunoglobulin. Equivalent to plasmacyte and plasma cell. (18 Nov 1997) |
| antigen presenting cell | A cell that carries on its surface antigen bound to MCH Class I or Class II molecules and presents the antigen in this context to T-cells. Includes macrophages, endothelium, dendritic cells and Langerhans cells of the skin. See: MHC restriction, histocompatibility antigens. (18 Nov 1997) |
| antigen-responsive cell | A small lymphocyte that, although not itself an immunologically activated cell, responds to antigenic (immunogenic) stimulus by a process of division and differentiation that results in the production of immunologically activated cells. Synonym: antigen-responsive cell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antigen-sensitive cell | A small lymphocyte that, although not itself an immunologically activated cell, responds to antigenic (immunogenic) stimulus by a process of division and differentiation that results in the production of immunologically activated cells. Synonym: antigen-responsive cell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antiparietal cell antibody | <immunology> A serologic blood test which measures the presence of antibodies to gastric parietal cells. Less than 2% of the general population will be antibody positive although this can be higher in the elderly. Approximately 90% of individuals with pernicious anaemia will be antibody positive. A positive result may also be seen in atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, thyroid disease, iron deficiency anaemia and diabetes. (13 Jan 1998) |
| antipodal cell | <plant biology> Three cells of the embryo sac in angiosperms, found at the end of the embryo away from the point of entry of the pollen tube. (13 Jan 1998) |

| stem cell |
Cells that can give rise to other types of cells; they are produced both during embryonic development and in the adult body. Embryonic stem cells begin with the ability to become any cell type, and quickly differentiate into cells committed toward a certain type of tissue, eg, blood, skin, or neural stem cells. These are termed multipotential stem cells, because they further divide into cells with a particular function, such as red and white blood cells and platelets. ...

| stem cell |
An undifferentiated cell that possesses the ability to divide for indefinite periods in culture and may give rise to highly specialized cells of each tissue type. There are embryonic stem cells found in the blastocyst that are known to be totipotent, while adult stem cells found in bone marrow, for example, may only be pluripotent (not able to produce an entire new organism but are able to produce all three tissue types).

| stem cell |
population of cells-ancestors possessing a high proliferation potential and ability to differentiate into different line cells, when in a body, they can turn into any cells of the organ and when in an embryo they can turn into any cell of the body.
