| Howell-Jolly bodies | Spherical or ovoid eccentrically located granules, approximately 1 um in diameter, occasionally observed in the stroma of circulating erythrocytes, especially in stained preparations (as compared with wet unstained films); probably represent nuclear remnants, inasmuch as they can be stained with dyes that are rather specific for chromatin; the significance of the body's is not exactly known; they occur most frequently after splenectomy or in megaloblastic or severe haemolytic anaemia. Synonym: Jolly bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Howell unit | The quantity of heparin required to keep 1 ml of cat's blood fluid for 24 hr at 0°C; it is equivalent approximately to 0.002 mg of pure heparin. Synonym: Howell unit. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Howell, William | <person> U.S. Physiologist, 1860-1945. See: Howell unit, Howell-Jolly bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alcoholic hyaline bodies | Large, poorly defined accumulations of eosinophilic material in the cytoplasm of damaged hepatic cells in certain forms of cirrhosis and marked fatty change especially due to alcoholism. Synonym: alcoholic hyalin, alcoholic hyaline bodies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Alder bodies | Granular inclusions in polymorphonuclear leukocytes; they take on a dark colour with Giemsa-Wright stain and react metachromatically with toluidine blue. See: Alder's anomaly. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amyloid bodies of the prostate | An obsolete term for small masses of colloid material often present in the tubules of the gland. See: corpus amylaceum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aortic bodies | Small clusters of chemoreceptive and supporting cells located near the aortic arch, the pulmonary arteries, and the coronary arteries. The aortic bodies sense pH, carbon dioxide, and oxygen concentrations in the blood and participate in the control of respiration. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Arnold's bodies | Small portions or minute fragments of erythrocytes (sometimes mistaken for blood platelets), or small "ghosts" of erythrocytes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| asbestos bodies | Ferruginous body's with asbestos fibres as a core; a histologic hallmark of exposure to asbestos. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Aschoff bodies | <pathology> Small granulomas composed of macrophages, lymphocytes and multinucleate cells grouped around eosinophilic hyaline material derived from collagen. Characteristic of the myocarditis of rheumatic fever. (18 Nov 1997) |
| Auer bodies | Rod-shaped structures of uncertain nature in the cytoplasm of immature myeloid cells, especially myeloblasts, in acute myelocytic leukaemia; may be an abnormal form of lysosomes; they contain peroxidase and acid phosphatase, and stain red by azure-eosin stains. Synonym: Auer rods. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Babes-Ernst bodies | Intracellular granules, present in many species of bacteria, which possess a strong affinity for nuclear stains. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bigeminal bodies | A bilateral single swelling of the roofplate of the embryonic midbrain that later in development becomes subdivided into a superior and an inferior colliculus. See: quadrigeminal bodies. Synonym: corpora bigemina. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bollinger bodies | Relatively large, spheroid or ovoid, usually somewhat granular, acidophilic, intracytoplasmic inclusion body's observed in the infected tissues of birds with fowlpox; when body's are ruptured large numbers of fowlpox virus particles are released. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Borrel bodies | Particles of fowlpox virus; aggregates of Borrel body's in infected cells result in the formation of Bollinger body's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Howell's bodies |
Howell-Jolly bodies, smooth, round remnants of nuclear chromatin seen in erythrocytes in megaloblastic anemia, hemolytic anemia, and after splenectomy. Called also Jolly's b's.
