| 설명 | 인공적으로 제조한 글루코코르티코이드의 역할을 하는 약제. 글루코코르티코이드란 부신겉질에서 나오는 호르몬의 일종으로 지방질과 단백질을 분해하여 당을 제조하여 혈중으로 내보내는 작용을 하고 몸에 저장되어 있는 당을 혈중으로 내보내고 면역기능을 억제하는 역할도 하는 호르몬이다. |

| dexamethasone suppression test | <endocrinology, investigation> A test that measures the response of the adrenal glands to ACTH. Dexamethasone is given to the patient and then blood cortisol levels are measured. Under normal conditions, cortisol levels should drop in response to dexamethasone. In this test one milligram of dexamethasone is administered in the morning and then the blood is drawn for analysis the following morning. Abnormal test results can indicate Cushing's syndrome.

| dexamethasone | <drug> Steroid analogue (glucocorticoid), used as an anti-inflammatory drug. (18 Nov 1997) |
| dexamethasone isonicotinate | <chemical> 9-fluoro-11 beta,17,21-trihydroxy-16 alpha-methyl-pregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione-21-isonicotinate. An anti-inflammatory, antiallergic glucocorticoid that can be administered orally, by inhalation, locally, and parenterally. It may cause water and salt retention. Pharmacological action: anti-allergic agents, steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, glucocorticoids, synthetic, glucocorticoids, topical. Chemical name: Pregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione, 9-fluoro-11,17-dihydroxy-16-methyl-21-((4-pyridinylcarbonyl)oxy)-, (11beta,16alpha)- (12 Dec 1998) |
| ACTH suppression test | <investigation> A test that measures the response of the adrenal glands to ACTH. In this case, dexamethasone is given to the patient and then blood cortisol levels are measured. Under normal conditions, cortisol levels should drop in response to dexamethasone. In this test one milligram of dexamethasone is administered in the morning and then the blood is drawn for analysis the following morning. Abnormal test results can indicate Cushing's syndrome. (27 Sep 1997) |
| bone marrow suppression | <oncology, pharmacology> A side effect of many anticancer and antiviral drugs, including AZT. Bone marrow suppression leads to a decrease in white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets. Such reductions in turn result in anaemia, bacterial infections and spontaneous or excess bleeding. (09 Oct 1997) |
| growth hormone suppression test | <investigation> A test to determine if growth hormone is suppressed by hyperglycaemia. Growth hormone blood levels are determined sequentially after ingestion of a glucose-rich meal. If growth hormone levels remain elevated (after the glucose is given) then acromegaly or gigantism is suspected. (27 Sep 1997) |
| cortisol suppression test | <investigation> A test that measures the response of the adrenal glands to ACTH. In this case, dexamethasone is given to the patient and then blood cortisol levels are measured. Under normal conditions, cortisol levels should drop in response to dexamethasone. In this test one milligram of dexamethasone is administered in the morning and then the blood is drawn for analysis the following morning. Abnormal test results can indicate Cushing's syndrome.

| nonsense suppression | Mutant tRNAs that read a chain termination codon as the signal for incorporation of a specific amino acid residue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| suppression | 1. The act of suppressing, or the state of being suppressed; repression; as, the suppression of a riot, insurrection, or tumult; the suppression of truth, of reports, of evidence, and the like. 2. <medicine> Complete stoppage of a natural secretion or excretion; as, suppression of urine; used in contradiction to retention, which signifies that the secretion or excretion is retained without expulsion. 3. Omission; as, the suppression of a word. Synonym: Overthrow, destruction, concealment, repression, detention, retention, obstruction. Origin: L. Suppressio: cf. F. Suppression.

| suppression amblyopia | The suppression of the central vision in one eye when the images from the two eyes are so different that they cannot be fused into one. This may be due to: 1) faulty image formation (sensory amblyopia); 2) a large difference in refraction between the two eyes (anisometropic amblyopia); or 3) the two eyes pointing in different directions (strabismic amblyopia). Most suppression amblyopia can be reversed if appropriately treated before age 6 years. Synonym: amblyopia ex anopsia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| suppression, genetic | The restoration of the wild-type phenotype in an organism possessing a mutationally altered genotype. The effects of the mutation may be suppressed by a second "suppressor" mutation on a different gene, by a suppressor mutation on the same gene but located at a distance from the site of the primary mutation, or by the presence of a cytoplasmic suppressor due to a change in non-chromosomal DNA. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immune suppression | Suppression of the immune response by some compound or agent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intergenic suppression | The situation where a primary gene and the gene that suppresses it do not lie in the same chromosomal locus. Compare: intragenic suppression. (18 Nov 1997) |
| intragenic suppression | <molecular biology> The situation where a primary gene and the mutated gene that suppresses it lie within the same locus. (18 Nov 1997) |
| thyroid suppression test | A thyroid function test used to diagnose difficult cases of hyperthyroidism, now largely replaced by the thyrotropin-releasing hormone stimulation test; triiodothyronine is administered for a week to 10 days, and a reduction of its uptake by the thyroid gland to less than half of the initial uptake is a normal response. Synonym: Werner's test. (05 Mar 2000) |
