| human a1-proteinase inhibitor | A glycoprotein that is the major protease inhibitor of human serum, is synthesised in the liver, and is genetically polymorphic due to the presence of over 20 alleles; individuals appropriately homozygous are deficient in a1-trypsin and are predisposed to pulmonary emphysema and juvenile hepatic cirrhosis because of alterations in the amino acid and sialic acid components of the glycoprotein. A1-Antitrypsin also inhibits thrombin. Synonym: a1-trypsin inhibitor, human a1-proteinase inhibitor. (05 Mar 2000) |

| human botfly | A large, blue, brown-winged species whose larvae develop in open boil-like lesions in the skin of humans, many domestic animals, and some fowl. It is a very serious and damaging cattle parasite and frequently attacks small children in Central and South America. Its eggs are laid on the legs or abdomen of another insect, such as the mosquito; the eggs later hatch, when stimulated by warmth or other factors, to release the botfly larvae on the skin of the mosquito's bloodmeal host, and the larvae quickly invade the skin to initiate myiasis. Synonym: Dermatobia cyaniventris, human botfly, skin botflies, warble botfly. (05 Mar 2000) |
| human botfly myiasis | Infection of man and animals with larvae of the fly Dermatobia hominis. Synonym: human botfly myiasis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| human clinical trial | <pharmacology> Controlled clinical studies in human volunteers to test the safety and efficacy of pharmaceutical candidates. There are usually three distinct phases of human clinical testing: Phases I, II, and III. Phase I trials are safety studies of volunteers, usually healthy controls. Phase II trials are studies to confirm safety and study optimum dose and initial efficacy. Phase III trials are studies to prove safety and efficacy in a specific patient population. (14 Nov 1997) |
| human cytomegalovirus | <virology> A group of viruses within the subfamily Cytomegalovirus (Betaherpesvirinae) (of the family Herpesviridae) which infects human beings. (09 Oct 1997) |

| human ehrlichiosis | A form of ehrlichiosis that presents clinically as a undifferentiated acute febrile illness characterised by fever, chills, diarrhoea, and headache, following tick bite(s), probably by the Lone Star Tick, Amblyomma americanum. Caused by Ehrlichia chaffeensis. First described in 1987. (Thought to be predominantly a monocytic form of ehrlichiosis.) (05 Mar 2000) |
