| juxtaglomerular apparatus | A collective term for the juxtaglomerular cells in a nephron. These are specialised cells containing secretory granules, located in the tunica media of the afferent glomerular arterioles. They are receptors thought to stimulate secretion of the adrenal hormone aldosterone and to play a major role in renal autoregulation. (12 Dec 1998) |

| juxtaglomerular | Close to or adjoining a renal glomerulus. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| juxtaglomerular body | A collection of cells around the renal glomerular arterioles that contain cytoplasmic granules, probably composed of renin. Synonym: periarterial pad. (05 Mar 2000) |
| juxtaglomerular cells | Cell's, located at the vascular pole of the renal corpuscle that secrete renin and form a component of the juxtaglomerular complex; they are modified smooth muscle cell's primarily of the afferent arteriole of the renal glomerulus. Synonym: Goormaghtigh's cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| juxtaglomerular complex | A complex consisting of the juxtaglomerular cells, which are modified smooth muscle cells in the wall of the afferent glomerular arteriole and sometimes also the efferent arteriole; extraglomerular mesangium lacis cells, which are located in the angle between the afferent and efferent glomerular arterioles; the macula densa of the distal convoluted tubule; and granular epithelial peripolar cells located at the angle of reflection of the parietal to the visceral capsule of the renal corpuscle; believed to provide some feedback control of extracellular fluid volume and glomerular filtration rate. Synonym: j-g complex, juxtaglomerular apparatus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| juxtaglomerular granules | Osmophilic secretory granule's present in the juxtaglomerular cells, thought to contain renin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Abbe substage apparatus | <apparatus> Includes a rack and pinion for horizontal displacement of an iris diaphragm to obtain oblique lighting. (05 Aug 1998) |
| accessory visual apparatus | The eyelids, with lashes and eyebrows, lacrimal apparatus, conjunctival sac, and extrinsic muscles of the eyeball. Synonym: organa oculi accessoria, accessory organs, accessory visual apparatus, adnexa oculi, appendages of eye. (05 Mar 2000) |
| achromatic apparatus | The nonstaining asters and spindle fibres in a dividing cell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alimentary apparatus | The organs that are responsible for getting food into and out of the body and for making use of food to keep the body healthy. These include the mouth, oesophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, small intestine, colon, and rectum. (12 Dec 1998) |
| apparatus | Origin: L, from apparare, apparatum, to prepare; ad + prepare to make ready. 1. Things provided as means to some end. 2. Hence: A full collection or set of implements, or utensils, for a given duty, experimental or operative; any complex instrument or appliance, mechanical or chemical, for a specific action or operation; machinery; mechanism. 3. <physiology> A collection of organs all of which unite in a common function; as, the respiratory apparatus.

| apparatus digestorius | The digestive tract from the mouth to the anus with all its associated glands and organs. Synonym: apparatus digestorius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apparatus hyoideus | <veterinary> A veterinary anatomy term for hyoid bones, a modified portion of the ancestral branchial skeleton consisting of an articulated chain of bones extending from the mastoid region of the skull on each side to the base of the tongue. In humans, it is reduced to a single bone, os hyoideum; in a typical mammal (the dog), it consists of a tympanohyoid cartilage attached to the skull, followed by the stylohyoid, epihyoid, keratohyoid, basihyoid, and thyrohyoid bones. Synonym: apparatus hyoideus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apparatus lacrimalis | The tear-forming and tear-conducting system which includes the lacrimal glands, eyelid margins, conjunctival sac, and the tear drainage system. (12 Dec 1998) |
| apparatus ligamentosus colli | A sagittal ligamentous band at the back of the neck, formed of thickened supraspinous ligaments; it extends from the external occipital protuberance to the posterior border of the foramen magnum, cranially, to the seventh cervical spinous process, caudally. Synonym: apparatus ligamentosus colli, nuchal ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apparatus ligamentosus weitbrechti | A gelatinous membrane, attached to the bony spiral lamina, which overlies the hair cells within the cochlea of the inner ear. (12 Dec 1998) |
