| 영문 | stem cell | 한글 | 줄기세포, 간세포 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 자기 복제를 하여 자신을 존속시키면서 한편으로는 증식과 분화를 하여 새로운 세포를 형성하는 세포로서 조혈줄기세포가 대표적이다. 조혈줄기세포는 골수에 있는 세포로서 모든 혈구세포가 여기에서 분화되어 발생한다. |

| 영문 | renal cell carcinoma | 한글 | 콩팥세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥에 생긴 원시콩팥조직에서 발생한 암. 주로 원시세뇨관조직에서 발생한다. 대표적인 세포조직형은 염색시 세포질이 맑게 비어보이는 맑은세포암종이다. 치료는 수술과 항암화학요법이며 아주 드물지만 저절로 낫는 경우도 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. |

| 영문 | squamous cell carcinoma | 한글 | 편평세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 편평세포 기원의 암으로서, 편평세포가 있는 어떤 곳에서든 발생가능함. 따라서 식도암, 피부암, 폐암, 자궁암 등이 여기에 해당된다. 특히 피부암은 많은 자외선조사에 의해 생기는 광선각화증에서 발생가능하다. 병리조직학적 특성으로서 각질을 생성한다. |

| alpha angle | The angle between the visual and optic axes as they cross at the nodal point of the eye, the angle between the visual line and the major axis of the corneal ellipse. (05 Mar 2000) |

| alpha-antitrypsin deficiency | <enzyme> A specific enzyme (alpha 1 antitrypsinase) that when absent genetically can result in panacinar emphysema (lung disease) and liver disease. There is no specific treatment for this condition other than supportive care for the liver and lung complications. Medications such as alpha-1proteinase inhibitor is given regularly to these patients. Incidence: approximately 1 in 10,000. (02 Jan 1998) |
| alpha,beta-ketoalkene reductase | <enzyme> Nadh is much less effective than NADPH; catalyses the reduction of the carbon-carbon double bond of five membered ring cpds which have two conjugated carbonyl groups on both sides of a double bond Registry number: EC 1.3.1.- Synonym: n-ethylmaleimide reducing enzyme, NADPH-linked alpha,beta-ketoalkene double bond reductase, n-ethylmaleimide reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
| alpha-blocker | An agent that competitively blocks alpha-adrenergic receptors; used in the treatment of hypertension. Synonym: alpha-blocker. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha blocking | The attenuation of the occipital alpha rhythm (8-14 Hz brain waves as seen on an electroencephalogram), produced by opening the eyes or by intense mental concentration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Alpha cells | Alpha cell's of pancreas or of anterior lobe of hypophysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha cells of anterior lobe of hypophysis | Acidophil cell's that constitute about 35% of the cell's of the anterior lobe. There are two varieties: one that elaborates somatotropin, another that elaborates prolactin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha cells of pancreas | Cell's of the islets of Langerhans that secrete glucagon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha chain disease | A vague or indefinite term; could be used for alpha-heavy-chain disease (a lymphoplasma cell proliferative disease usually seen in Mediterranean men, characterised by intestinal involvement with steatorrhoea, often progressive with fatal outcome) or a thalassaemia (a genetic abnormality in the alpha globin chain of haemoglobin). (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha channeling | <radiobiology> Term for an idea (so far theoretical) in magnetic confinement fusion, the idea is that plasma waves can be used to control the alpha particles produced in a fusion reactor, to transfer their energy directly to fuel ions, and to help push them out of the plasma. This could potentially help to substantially improve the power output capabilities of fusion plasmas. (09 Oct 1997) |
| alpha-chloralose | A conjugate of chloral and glucose used as an anaesthetic in laboratory animals; it does not depress cardiovascular reflexes as much as most other anaesthetic agents. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha-chlorohydrin | <chemical> 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol. A chlorinated propanediol compound that has shown anti-fertility activity in males and has been used as a chemosterilant in rodents. Pharmacological action: chemosterilants, contraceptive agents, male. Chemical name: 1,2-Propanediol, 3-chloro- (12 Dec 1998) |
| alpha-chymotrypsin-induced glaucoma | Transient secondary glaucoma following the use of alpha-chymotrypsin in cataract extraction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha-cortol | 5b-Pregnane-3a,11b,17,20a,21-pentaol; the 5b enantiomer of alpha-allocortol;a reduction product of cortisone, present in the urine, differing from cortisone in that the three keto groups are reduced to hydroxyls. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha-cortolone | 3a,17a,20a,21-Tetrahydroxy-5b-pregnane-11-one;the 5b enantiomer of alpha-allocortolone; a reduction product of cortisone, present in the urine, differing from cortisone in that two of the keto groups (at positions 3 and 20) are reduced to hydroxyls. (05 Mar 2000) |
