| leukocytes | Cells that help the body fight infections and other diseases. Also called white blood cells (wbcs). (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| leukocytes, mononuclear | Mature lymphocytes and monocytes transported by the blood to the body's extravascular space. They are morphologically distinguishable from mature granulocytic leukocytes by their large, non-lobed nuclei and lack of coarse, heavily stained cytoplasmic granules. (12 Dec 1998) |
| branch migration | <molecular biology> Movement of the branch point in a branched DNA sequence formed from two parent DNA molecules with practically identical sequences. (17 Dec 1997) |
| macrophage migration inhibition test | A test which measures the presence of migration-inhibitory factor. Usually peritoneal macrophages are placed in a capillary tube in the presence or absence of supernatants from activated T-cells. If MIF is present, the migration of monocyte/macrophages is reduced. Synonym: macrophage migration inhibition test, migration inhibition test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| macrophage migration-inhibitory factors | Proteins released by sensitised lymphocytes and possibly other cells that inhibit the migration of macrophages away from the release site. The structure and chemical properties may vary with the species and type of releasing cell. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cell migration | <cell biology> Implies movement of a population of cells from one place to another as in the movement of neural crest cells during morphogenesis. (26 Mar 1998) |
| cell migration inhibition | Phenomenon of cell-mediated immunity measured by in vitro inhibition of the migration or phagocytosis of antigen-stimulated leukocytes or macrophages. Specific assays have been developed to estimate levels of migration-inhibitory factor, immune reactivity against tumour-associated antigens, and immunosuppressive effects of infectious microorganisms. (12 Dec 1998) |
| migration | 1. Passing from one part to another, said of certain morbid processes or symptoms. Synonym: diapedesis. 3. Movement of a tooth or teeth out of normal position. 4. Movement of molecules during electrophoresis. Origin: L. Migro, pp. -atus, to move from place to place (05 Mar 2000) |
| migration inhibition test | A test which measures the presence of migration-inhibitory factor. Usually peritoneal macrophages are placed in a capillary tube in the presence or absence of supernatants from activated T-cells. If MIF is present, the migration of monocyte/macrophages is reduced. Synonym: macrophage migration inhibition test, migration inhibition test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| migration-inhibitory factor | <growth factor> A soluble, nondialysable factor that is produced by sensitised lymphocytes following exposure to a specific antigen. It inhibits macrophage migration and causes adherence. It was originally defined on the basis of inhibition of emigration of mononuclear cells from capillary (haematocrit) tubes, more recently a 13 kD protein with migration inhibitory activity has been isolated. Acronym: MIF Synonym: inhibition factor. (22 Sep 2002) |
| migration-inhibitory factor test | A test which measures the presence of migration-inhibitory factor. Usually peritoneal macrophages are placed in a capillary tube in the presence or absence of supernatants from activated T-cells. If MIF is present, the migration of monocyte/macrophages is reduced. Synonym: macrophage migration inhibition test, migration inhibition test. (05 Mar 2000) |
| migration of ovum | <gynaecology> The transperitoneal passage of an ovum from the ovarian follicle into the uterine tube. (05 Mar 2000) |
| migration theory | An obsolete theory that sympathetic ophthalmia is caused by a migration of the pathogenic agent through the lymph channels of the optic nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epithelial migration | Apical shift of epithelial attachment, exposing more of the tooth crown. (05 Mar 2000) |
| foreign-body migration | Migration of a foreign body from its original location to some other location in the body. (12 Dec 1998) |
| migration of leukocytes |
Passage of white blood cells through walls of capillaries. SYN: diapedesis.
