| neurit | Neurite An obsolete term for axon. Origin: G. Neurites, of a nerve (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| neurite | <cell biology> A process growing out of a neuron. As it is hard to distinguish a dendrite from an axon in culture, the term neurite is is used for both. (04 Mar 1998) |
| neurites | In tissue culture, hairlike projections of neurons stimulated by growth factors and other molecules. These projections may go on to form a branched tree of dendrites or a single axon or they may be reabsorbed at a later stage of development. "neurite" may refer to any filamentous or pointed outgrowth of an embryonal or tissue-culture neural cell. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neuritic | Relating to neuritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuritic atrophy | Abnormalities of the skin, hair, nails, subcutaneous tissues and bone, caused by peripheral nerve lesions. Synonym: neuritic atrophy, neurogenic atrophy, neurotrophic atrophy, trophic changes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuritic plaque | <cell biology> Abnormal cluster of dead and dying nerve cells, other brain cells and protein. Neuritic plaques are one of the characteristic structural abnormalities found in the brains of alzheimer patients. Upon autopsy, the presence of neuritic plaques andneurofibrillary tangles is used to positively diagnose Alzheimer's disease. (22 May 1997) |
| neuritis | <clinical sign> Inflammation of a nerve, a condition attended by pain and tenderness over the nerves, anaesthesia and paraesthesias, paralysis, wasting and disappearance of the reflexes. In practice, the term is also used to denote noninflammatory lesions of the peripheral nervous system. If the involvement is in one nerve it is called mononeuritis, in several nerves, mononeuritis multiplex, if diffuse and bilateral, polyneuritis. See: neuropathy. (16 Dec 1997) |
| neuritis, experimental allergic | An autoimmune demyelinating disorder of peripheral nerves produced by injection of peripheral nerve tissue protein. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neuro | <anatomy, prefix> A combining denoting a nerve, of or pertaining to a nerve, nerve tissue or the nervous system. Origin: Gr. neuron. (21 Jun 2000) |
| neuro-central | <anatomy> Between the neural arch and the centrum of a vertebra; as, the neurocentral suture. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| neuro-epidermal | <anatomy> Pertaining to, or giving rise to, the central nervous system and epiderms; as, the neuroepidermal, or epiblastic, layer of the blastoderm. Origin: Neuro- + epidermal. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| neuro-oncologist | <specialist> An physician who specialises in treating patients with brain tumours, and/or the consequences of cancer upon the nervous system. The physician may be a trained neurologist, oncologist or neurosurgeon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuro-oncology | The branch of medicine concerned with the direct and indirect effects of neoplasms on the nervous system, neuromuscular junction, and muscle. Origin: neuro-+ onco-+ G. Logos, study (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuro-ophthalmology | That branch of medicine concerned with the neurological aspects of the visual apparatus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neuro-otology | The branch of medicine concerned with the neurological aspects of the auditory and vestibular apparatus. Synonym: neurotology. (05 Mar 2000) |
