| cytoid bodies | Swollen retinal nerve fibres which look like cells when cut transversely; found in cotton-wool patches. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cytokeratin | <protein> Generic name for the intermediate filament proteins of epithelial cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cytokeratin filaments | A class of intermediate filament's that form a network within epithelial cells and anchor to desmosomes, thus imparting tensile strength to the tissue. Synonym: cytokeratin filaments. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytokeratins | A class of intermediate filament proteins; several are associated with the epithelium that lines internal body cavities while others are specific for hard tissue such as nails and hair. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytokine | <biochemistry> Small proteins or biological factors (in the range of 5-20 kD) that are released by cells and have specific effects on cell-cell interaction, communication and behaviour of other cells. Not really different from hormones, but the term tends to be used as a convenient generic shorthand for interleukins, lymphokines and several related signalling molecules such as TNF and interferons. Generally growth factors would not be classified as cytokines, though TGF is an exception. Rather an imprecise term. Chemokines are a subset of cytokines. (29 Sep 1997) |
| cytokines | Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialised glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cytokinesis | Process in which the cytoplasm of a cell is divided after nuclear division (mitosis) is complete. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cytokinin | <protein> Class of plant growth substances (plant hormones) active in promoting cell division. Also involved in cell growth and differentiation and in other physiological processes. Examples: kinetin, zeatin, benzyl adenine. (18 Nov 1997) |
| cytokinin oxidase | <enzyme> Isopentenyladenosine to adenosine Registry number: EC 1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| cytokinins | Plant hormones that promote the separation of daughter cells after mitotic division of a parent cell. Frequently they are purine derivatives. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cytolemma | Synonym: cell membrane. Origin: cyto-+ G. Lemma, husk (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytolipin | A glycosphingolipid, specifically a ceramide oligosaccharide, cytolipin H, a lactosylceramide, may display immunological properties under certain conditions, cytolipin K is probably identical with globoside. Compare: ceramide lactosidase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytologic | Relating to cytology. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cytologic examination | The microscopic examination of cells, especially for diagnosis of disease, performed by a specialist in pathology. (27 Sep 1997) |
| cytologic screening | A screening for the detection of early disease, usually cancer, through microscopic examination of a cellular specimen by inspecting each cell and structure present, usually at ×100 magnification with a mechanical stage, so that all areas are screened; the findings are evaluated and significant abnormalities are flagged (e.g., by dotting the cover slip) for further evaluation by a cytopathologist. This screening is usually performed by a cytotechnologist, but at times is done by automated machine prescreening. (05 Mar 2000) |
