| tetralogy of Fallot |
In medicine, the tetralogy of Fallot (described by Etienne Fallot, 1850 - 1911, Marseille) is a significant and complex congenital heart defect, involving four different heart malformations:# A ventricular septal defect (VSD), a hole between the two bottom chambers (ventricles) of the heart. # Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, a narrowing at or just below the pulmonary valve. # The aorta is positioned over the ventricular septal defect instead of in the left ventricle. ...

| tetrodotoxin |
Tetrodotoxin (anhydrotetrodotoxin 4-epitetrodotoxin, tetrodonic acid, TTX) is a potent neurotoxin, which blocks the nerve function in nerves by binding to the pore of voltage-gated sodium channel in nerve cell membranes. The binding site of this toxin is located at the pore opening the voltage-gated Na+ channel. Its name derives from Tetraodontidae, the scientific family name of the puffer fishes, some species of which carry the toxin. ...

| Tetrahymena |
Tetrahymena are ciliate protozoa, common in aquatic habitats. They are pear-shaped and 30-100 μm in length, belonging among the hymenostomes and with cilia typical of that group. Tetrahymena thrive at temperatures of 18-22 degrees Celsius. Because of their short generation time and because they can be grown to high cell density in inexpensive media, they are common subjects of scientific study. The two most popular Tetrahymena species used in biomedical researches are T. ...
