| 영문 | TNM staging system | 한글 | 종양병기분류계통 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 종양의 병기(stage)를 결정하는 한 방법. T는 Tumor(종양)를 뜻하며 원발병터의 크기, 주위조직으로의 침윤정도 등에 따라 T1, T2, T3, T4(숫자가 높을 수록 주위로 침윤이 많다) 등으로 나눈다. N은 Node(림프절)를 뜻하며 침범된 림프절의 갯수, 크기, 위치 등에 따라 N1, N2, N3 등으로 나눈다. M은 Metastasis(전이)를 뜻하며 원격전이의 유무에 따라 M0, M1 등으로 나눈다. 이상의 방법으로 T, N, M이 결정되면 이들을 조합하여 최종적인 병기를 결정한다. 이렇게 결정된 병기는 치료 방침 결정과 예후 판단에 매우 중요하다. |

| 영문 | central nervous system(CNS) | 한글 | 중추신경계 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 신경계는 중추신경계와 말초신경계로 분류할 수가 있다. 중추신경계란 뇌와 척수로 구성되어 있는 신경계를 이르는 말이다. 말초신경계란 이 이외의 모든 신경계를 이르는 말이다. |

| orthograde transport | Axonal transport from the cell body of the neuron towards the synaptic terminal. Opposite of retrograde transport and probably dependent on a different mechanochemical protein (almost definitely kinesin) interacting with microtubules. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| ovum transport | Transport of the ovum or zygote from the site of ovulation to the site of implantation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| electron transport | The transport of electrons through a number of electron carriers in a set sequence. (09 Oct 1997) |
| electron transport chain | <biochemistry, chemistry> A series of compounds that transfer electrons to an eventual donor with concomitant energy conversion. One of the best studied is in the mitochondrial inner membrane, that takes NADH (from the tricarboxylic acid cycle) or FADH and transfers electrons via ubiquinone, cytochromes and various other compounds, to oxygen. Other electron transport chains are involved in photosynthesis. (18 Nov 1997) |
| electron transport particles | <cell biology> Fragments of mitochondria still capable of transporting electrons. One of the units occurring on the matrical surface of mitochondrial cristae; the head of the particle which measures about 9 nm, attaches to the membrane of the crista by a stalk 5 nm in length; the particle may be concerned with the electron transport system. Synonym: submitochondrial particles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electron transport phosphorylation | <biochemistry> Synthesis of ATP involving a membrane associated electron transport chain and the creation of a proton-motive force. (09 Oct 1997) |
| transcellular transport | Solute movement across an epithelial cell layer through the cells. Compare: paracellular transport. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transport | <radiobiology> Refers to processes which cause heat energy, or particles, or something else, to flow out of the plasma and cease being confined. Diffusion partly determines the rate of transport. Energy losses from a plasma due to transport processes are a central problem in fusion energy research. See: classical transport, neoclassical transport, anomalous tranport, diffusion, ambipolar diffusion, Bohm diffusion, classical diffusion, neoclassical diffusion, anomalous diffusion, energy transport, ripple transport. (09 Oct 1997) |
| transport antibiotic | A substance that makes biomembranes permeable to certain ions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transport diseases | Single gene defect diseases in which there is an inability to transport particular small molecules across membranes. Examples are aminoacidurias such as cystinuria, iminoglycinuria, Hartup disease, Fanconi disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| transport host | An intermediate host in which no development of the parasite occurs, although its presence may be required as an essential link in the completion of the parasite's life cycle; e.g., the successive fish host's that carry the plerocercoid of Diphyllobothrium latum, the broad fish tapeworm, to larger food fish eventually eaten by man or other final host's. Synonym: transport host. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transport medium | A medium for transporting clinical specimens to the laboratory for examination. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transport number | The fraction of the total current carried through a solution by a particular type of ion present in that solution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transport protein | <protein> A class of transmembrane protein that allows substances to cross plasma membranes far faster than would be possible by diffusion alone. A major class of transport proteins expend energy to move substances (active transport), these are transport ATPases. See: facilitated diffusion, symport, antiport. (18 Nov 1997) |
| transport tetany | An acute disease seen in cattle and sheep during and shortly after shipping; it appears most often in females in advanced pregnancy and is believed to be precipitated by stress, lack of food and water, and perhaps heat. Synonym: railroad disease, railroad sickness. (05 Mar 2000) |
