pale-staining zone
| visual cortex | Area of the occipital lobe concerned with vision. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| renal cortex | The part of the kidney consisting of renal lobules in the outer zone beneath the capsule and also the lobules of the renal columns that are extensions inward between the pyramids; contains the renal corpuscles and the proximal and distal convoluted tubules. Synonym: cortex renis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cerebellar cortex | The thin gray surface layer of the cerebellum, consisting of an outer molecular layer or stratum moleculare, a single layer of Purkinje cells (the ganglionic layer), and an inner granular layer or stratum granulosum. Synonym: cortex cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cerebral cortex | The outer portion of the brain, consisting of layersof nerve cells and the pathways that connect them. The cerebralcortex is the part of the brain in which thought processes take place.In Alzheimer's disease, nerve cells in the cerebral cortex die. (22 May 1997) |
| granular cortex | See: cerebral cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular layer of cerebellar cortex | The deepest of the three layers of the cortex; it contains large numbers of granule cells, the dendrites of which synapse with incoming mossy fibres in cerebellar glomeruli. Thin, unmyelinated axons of granule cells ascend perpendicularly into the molecular layer in which they bifurcate into fibres coursing parallel to the long axis of the cerebellar folia. Parallel fibres form numerous synapses with the dendrites of Purkinje cells, basket cells, and stellate cells. Synonym: stratum granulosum cerebelli, granular layer of cerebellar cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| granular layers of cerebral cortex | Layers 2 (outer) and 4 (inner) of the cortex cerebri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peristriate cortex | See: visual cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular layer of cerebellar cortex | The outer lamina of the cortex, containing the cell bodies and dendrites of Purkinje cells, the axons of the granule cells, and the cell bodies, dendrites, and axons of basket cells. Synonym: stratum moleculare cerebelli, molecular layer of cerebellar cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molecular layer of cerebral cortex | Layer 1 of the cortex cerebri. Synonym: plexiform layer of cerebral cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| piriform cortex | The olfactory cortex, corresponding to the rostral half of the uncus; receiving its major afferents from the olfactory bulb, it is classified as allocortex. See: cerebral cortex. Synonym: olfactory cortex, piriform area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| motor cortex | Area of the frontal lobe concerned with primary motor control. It lies anterior to the central sulcus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| plexiform layer of cerebral cortex | Layer 1 of the cortex cerebri. Synonym: plexiform layer of cerebral cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cortex | <anatomy> The outer layer of an organ or other body structure, as distinguished from the internal substance. Origin: L. Corticalis = bark, rind, shell (18 Nov 1997) |
| cortex cerebelli | The thin gray surface layer of the cerebellum, consisting of an outer molecular layer or stratum moleculare, a single layer of Purkinje cells (the ganglionic layer), and an inner granular layer or stratum granulosum. Synonym: cortex cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
