| intercellular bridges | Slender cytoplasmic strands connecting adjacent cells; in histological sections of the epidermis and other stratified squamous epithelia, the bridge's are processes attached by a desmosome and are shrinkage artifacts of fixation; true bridge's with cytoplasmic confluence exist between incompletely divided germ cells. Synonym: cell bridges, cytoplasmic bridges. (05 Mar 2000) |

| intercellular | Between cells: can be used either in the sense of connections between cells (as in intercellular junctions) or as an antonym for intra cellular. (18 Nov 1997) |

| intercellular adhesion molecule | See: ICAM. (18 Nov 1997) |
| intercellular adhesion molecule-1 | <chemical> A cell-surface ligand with a role in leukocyte adhesion and inflammation. Its production is induced by gamma-interferon and it is required for neutrophil migration into inflamed tissue. Chemical name: Glycoprotein ICAM 1 (human clone pHRVr1 deblocked protein moiety reduced) (12 Dec 1998) |
| intercellular canaliculus | One of the fine channels between adjoining secretory cells, such as those between serous cells in salivary glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intercellular cement | A hypothetical adhesive substance formerly believed to occur between some epithelial cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intercellular digestion | Digestion in a cavity by means of secretions from the surrounding cells, such as occurs in the metazoa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intercellular junctions | Direct contact of a cell with a neighboring cell. most such junctions are too small to be resolved by light microscopy, but they can be visualised by conventional or freeze-fracture electron microscopy, both of which show that the interacting cell membrane and often the underlying cytoplasm and the intervening extracellular space are highly specialised in these regions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| intercellular lymph | The fluid in the potential spaces between cells in the various organs and tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteriolovenular bridge | The largest capillary connecting arteriole to venule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bridge | 1. To build a bridge or bridges on or over; as, to bridge a river. "Their simple engineering bridged with felled trees the streams which could not be forded." (Palfrey) 2. To open or make a passage, as by a bridge. "Xerxes . . . Over Hellespont Bridging his way, Europe with Asia joined." (Milton) 3. To find a way of getting over, as a difficulty; generally with over. Origin: Bridged; Bridging. 1. A structure, usually of wood, stone, brick, or iron, erected over a river or other water course, or over a chasm, railroad, etc, to make a passageway from one bank to the other. 2. Anything supported at the ends, which serves to keep some other thing from resting upon the object spanned, as in engraving, watchmaking, etc, or which forms a platform or staging over which something passes or is conveyed. 3. The small arch or bar at right angles to the strings of a violin, guitar, etc, serving of raise them and transmit their vibrations to the body of the instrument. 4. <physics> A device to measure the resistance of a wire or other conductor forming part of an electric circuit. 5. A low wall or vertical partition in the fire chamber of a furnace, for deflecting flame, etc.; usually called a bridge wall. Aqueduct bridge. See Aqueduct. Asses' bridge, Bascule bridge, Bateau bridge. See Ass, Bascule, Bateau. Bridge of a steamer, a narrow platform across the deck, above the rail, for the convenience of the officer in charge of the ship; in paddlewheel vessels it connects the paddle boxes. Bridge of the nose, the upper, bony part of the nose. Cantalever bridge. See Cantalever. Draw bridge. See Drawbridge. Flying bridge, a temporary bridge suspended or floating, as for the passage of armies; also, a floating structure connected by a cable with an anchor or pier up stream, and made to pass from bank to bank by the action of the current or other means. Girder bridge or Truss bridge, a bridge formed by girders, or by trusses resting upon abutments or piers. Lattice bridge, a bridge formed by lattice girders. Pontoon bridge, Ponton bridge. See Pontoon. Skew bridge, a bridge built obliquely from bank to bank, as sometimes required in railway engineering. Suspension bridge. See Suspension. Trestle bridge, a bridge formed of a series of short, simple girders resting on trestles. Tubular bridge, a bridge in the form of a hollow trunk or rectangular tube, with cellular walls made of iron plates riveted together, as the Britannia bridge over the Menai Strait, and the Victoria bridge at Montreal. <physics> Wheatstone's bridge, a device for the measurement of resistances, so called because the balance between the resistances to be measured is indicated by the absence of a current in a certain wire forming a bridge or connection between two points of the apparatus; invented by Sir Charles Wheatstone. Origin: OE. Brig, brigge, brug, brugge, AS. Brycg, bricg; akin to Fries. Bregge, D. Brug, OHG. Bruccu, G. Brucke, Icel. Bryggja pier, bridge, Sw. Brygga, Dan. Brygge, and prob. Icel. Br bridge, Sw. & Dan. Bro bridge, pavement, and possibly to E. Brow. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| bridge corpuscle | <cell biology> Specialised cell junction characteristic of epithelia into which intermediate filaments (tonofilaments of cytokeratin) are inserted. The gap between plasma membranes is of the order of 25-30nm and the intercellular space has a medial band of electron dense material. Desmosomes are particularly conspicuous in tissues such as skin that have to withstand mechanical stress. Origin: Gr. Soma = body (18 Nov 1997) |
| cantilever bridge | A fixed partial bridge denture in which the pontic is retained only on one side by an abutment tooth. Synonym: extension bridge. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gaskell's bridge | The bundle of modified cardiac muscle fibres that begins at the atrioventricular node as the trunk of the atrioventricular bundle and passes through the right atrioventricular fibrous ring to the membranous part of the interventricular septum where the trunk divides into two branches, the right crus of the atrioventricular bundle and the left crus of the atrioventricular bundle; the two crura ramify in the subendocardium of their respective ventricles. Synonym: fasciculus atrioventricularis, atrioventricular band, Gaskell's bridge, His' band, His' bundle, bundle of His, Keith's bundle, Kent's bundle, Kent-His bundle, ventriculonector. (05 Mar 2000) |
| removable bridge | A partial denture which supplies teeth and associated structures on a partially edentulous jaw, and which can be readily removed from the mouth. Synonym: removable bridge. (05 Mar 2000) |
